gollark: The best I can do is synchronizing most of my data (via syncthing), quite slowly.
gollark: I literally get 300KB/s to it.
gollark: I should probably have been doing that anyway, but my networking setup is filled with accursed eldritch horrors so I can't transfer stuff to my server fast enough for backups to work.
gollark: Also, disassembling it would be really annoying and I have none of those things.
gollark: I'm speculating. It just might have.
