Setting up your computer before you go to bed to download a demo for a game that’s… 20 MB large! Waking up in the morning to inevitably discover the download failed part way through.
“apparently my sister picked up the phooone! Aarrg! $!#@t”
Remember download managers?
What a blast from the past! Totally forgot that these were a thing lol.
sometimes I still have to do this, sure not for something that’s only 20mb but a 1gb file can take a whole night to download in my uni accommodation. The landlord doesn’t seem to give a shit though because they’re still advertising that the building has “up to 100mb/s” wifi speeds.
Waiting for a single image to load on the screen from top to bottom, one line at a time and being charged per minute for the privilege.
