Well, technically anywhere from 5 to 40, but I still have a nice chance to grow old before libreboot starts building. Also, still slower than dial-up.

Just keep your code under 8 kb. Honestly bloat if you can't do that /s
It would still take 8 seconds to download.
1 second per kb lol
Well... The original meme is in kbps (kilobits per second or kilobaud). The quoted speeds for the tech seem to line up with kbps and not kB/s, so I think this is the intent.
8 bits = 1 byte, so in this specific example it was very easy to convert 8 kbps to 1 kB/s to determine that it would take 8 seconds to download an 8 kB file.
Maybe secret300 meant a 8 kilobit file, they did use lowercase 'b' afterall 🙂.
