I remember back in the 90s when a classmate said it was ridiculous to need 768 MB RAM. Even at that time I was like "bro, do you history?"

i get like a gig down service but if i am too far from the router it's closer to 100.
I edit videos and stuff so transfer around some decent size files. It's usually not even worth my time to move to the room with the router in it... |

Ugh. We are so behind up here. Our core is still just 10g in a ladder from the bottom of alaska to the top. I just flew out to a village to provide a clinic 10 whole megs with 500mil rtt. We need some of that infrastructure trillions bruh.

a couple months ago I upgraded two machines to 2.5gbps copper, got a 5 port 2.5gbps switch and 4 cat6a cables for about $200. This is just for transferring large files between machines, although the spinning disks can't quite keep up since I'm not running RAID. But SSD in one machine to SSD in the other I get almost 275MBps

Most businesses aren't data centers.
We make that shit last. I dont have one customer that's on 10gb hardware across the board. Maybe a few server NICs plugged into one of the few 10gb backbone ports on the switch. |
