The Mountain of the Lord
The Mountain of the Lord is a 72-minute film produced by The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. It depicts the story of the building of the Salt Lake Temple in a fictional encounter between a reporter and Wilford Woodruff and was produced for the centennial of its dedication. The film shows the struggles of early Mormons to build the temple—which took 40 years to complete—in the Salt Lake Valley, where church members arrived in 1847.

gollark: UDP is just for sending small packets.
gollark: Nope. It runs over TCP.
gollark: Better than what? For what?
gollark: I don't see why you would want to stuff your entire request body in headers when there's a perfectly good request body system.
gollark: Primarily that some things won't be happy with it because nobody does it. Other than that:- servers may allocate limited-sized buffers for incoming request headers so you can't put too much in them (this is somewhat problematic for cookies)- headers have character set limits while bodies can be arbitrary bytes- request bodies are generated by forms and all sane clients so stuff is mostly designed to deal with those- request bodies can probably be handled more performantly because of stuff like the length field on them
