What, you never downloaded a game divided in 40 100MB chunks off of MegaUpload before only to find out part 27 is broken🫠
There are good file hosters, not only bad. You can see gofile in the screenshot, where you can download full-sized files at full speed.
Fucking war flashbacks happening now
When gen Z asks about this the only response we can give is "you don't know man, you werent there".
LimeWire has entered the chat....
it ain't that far back for early gen z to not experience
What, you’ve never downloaded a game divided into 5 1.2MB chunks via a 1200 baud dialup modem using XModem on a WWIV BBS and had your mom pickup the phone on the last file?
The best I got is 200 10 meg chunks on a 512k ): part 150 something didn't work...
I was very sad.
oh luelinks, you are missed
This is basically how Usenet piracy works, only with backup sources in case part 27 is broken
