      I don’t remember the last time I saw a big ol’ loading bar, honestly. Maybe a small one in steam?

      SSDs have made it a rarity for me.

        Downloads. SSD doesn’t help much there.

          But then you get a download rate and watching the bar is pointless

            I’ve had ones that don’t show a rate, and it’s maddening. Usually something like downloading an MMO through a launcher.

          Brew and yum and apt do this in ascii.

          EDIT I don’t know about Pacman. I don’t use arch.

        You obviously don’t work in IT.

        I literally used this method while stuck in the Ticketmaster queue for Taylor Swift tickets.
