minus-squareHeyListenWatchOut@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up7arrow-down18·1 day ago That’s for downloading though. Right. When you grab something from somewhere else and do “what” with that thing you “downloaded?” Like what are you doing with that file? ***ing it to your hard drive of some kind… what do you call that?

I didn’t even read that bit before writing my first lines, and that only confirms my doubts. Never seen these, eh?
