I've broken my world record since joining the dark ages of the internet back in 2004... my previous record was about 70gb, it's now

nearly half a terabyte in a week is a lot of linux iso's .. heh ..
that's insane. what on earth could they possibly download ?
It was a Friday evening, the connection was shite and everybody else was sloping off early so I decided to do the same, figuring I'd just let it run all night and it'd be finished by morning.
Got a phone-call the following morning to say there was no work and we were getting the weekend off which resulted in many cervezas getting drunk over the next couple of days.
Got into work on Monday morning to realise that, not only was my download complete but it'd been seeding all weekend with a share-ratio of around 8:1.
Fortunately, my boss wasn't that clued-up about 3g data costs so it was just brushed aside as being what it cost to get the job done.
I like that
The most i've ever downloaded in one go is 151gb. It was well seeded thankfully, so only took about 8 or 9 hours.
I hope you cleaned your keyboard afterwards. With a non-alcoholic based wipe obviously.
Heh
It was the complete collection of Mystery Science Theatre 3000, for the record. Nothing smutty !
I know that I *could* download 5TB in a week, if I wanted to, but if I kept on doing it, my "Unlimited" Internet provider would probably start to take an interest, eventually!
I have downloaded 70gb in the past 31 days and 8 of that was the land before time collection for the kid.
I came in to say excatly the same thing!
