    Strap 20 sd card with 1TB capacity each. Send the pidgeon to a neighboring city, 2 hours flight time.

    Bandwidth: 2.78 GB/s (assuming no wild hawks in the area)

    When Baldur’s Gate 3 came out our group of friends wanted to start a game together. Since one of our friends, living about a kilometer away, has shitty internet it was faster for me to download the game myself, copy it to a USB stick, have it driven over by another friend, copy it onto the friends PC and verify file integrity than downloading it.

    German internet in a nutshell.

    So yeah, IPoAC would’ve it’s purpose.

        You are joking. But https://aws.amazon.com/snowmobile/ is real.

          It’s a real quote, from the 80s, published in a networking textbook.

          It’s amusing, but it’s always been a serious and occasionally practical observation.
