Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, weighing all things in the balance of reason?
Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful?

This post[^] made me realize - the time to download an ISO around here is usually longer than the interval between power outages (Google it if you don't know what those are).

Hah! You're lucky!
Back in the day we had dial-up, which crashed out if somebody else in the house lifted the phone ... or the wind was blowing ... or the stars were out of alignment.
I bought a copy of Half-Life back then, only to find it was this new-fangled "Steam app" thingy, and it wouldn't run until Steam had updated itself each time (do note that Half-Life was not an online game). Since it took considerably longer than the average "time to die" of dial up to download the steam update - and no, it didn't resume - I never got to play the game at all ...

I had, probably still have somewhere, Half Life as I recall you didn't need to dial up, I didn't have a modem then. It was a bu**** never finished it...

No, you didn't need dial up for H-L, you need it for Steam. And H-L wouldn't run until Steam was up to date ...
