gollark: Unrelatedly, PDF is an awful format for documents which aren't scanned.
gollark: That's very heavily compressed, too.
gollark: (Wikipedia's text content only (just current versions of main-content-thingy pages) is 15GB)
gollark: With an internet connection that fast, you could literally download Wikipedia (text only, no revisions/talk pages/images/whatever) in 0.6 seconds, and all of it in less than a minute probably, if they could serve it that fast.
gollark: It would just be 200Gbps between the phone and whatever you connect it to. Not to the wider interwebbernet.
