Can't get any work done on 4Mbit uncapped:
1) Rsync is unusable, so can't update portage tree on Gentoo.
2) Can't download OpenLaszlo, which has an annoying captcha that prevents continuing a failed download and the download always fails. No problem, try the torrent option, but that's "shaped" to the point of being totally useless too (not downloading at a roundly shaped zero bps).
Wishing I switched to MWeb on the 25th, got another month of this Afrihost hell to
contend with now...
In the mean time, I'll continue to waste bandwidth retrying the download (yay for uncapped).
