   People talking like they can only move files from one computer to another via USB drives like it's 2005.
   
   File transfer over a LAN is not that difficult!

     @tk file xfer over LAN is way harder than it needs to be, especially when a mobile device is used

     That's why sneakernet stubbornly refuses to die

     @yakkoj I wonder if it's intentional.

     @tk@bbs.kawa-kun.com it can be. i had to transport 60GB of data for my partner's gf and using an external HD & walking it across the room was for sure faster than doing it over the network.
     
     but we decided to spend the time on setting up more network infra so we don't have to do it that way again 😉

     @purple Isn't Gigabit Ethernet faster than USB 2?

     300mbit, yeah. and at best you get like 30MB/s due to some protocol overhead otherwise you could get a whopping 37.5MB/s

     @izaya @tk PXE has some major cost drawbacks if you want to use it securely, as its lack of authentification/authorization means you have to setup an isolated link for every device (VLANs are an option, though fallible).

     @tk flash drives are for installing an OS when you have no PXE server and nothing more

     @lispi314 I pretty much just always MTP for transferring files to and from my phone. At least Android still has that, unlike iOS.

     @tk Well, awful OSes have certainly made it more difficult.

     "tar c some-dir | netcat endpoint port" and "mkdir some-dest && cd some-dest && netcat -q 5 -l destination port | tar x" still works.

     Good luck doing that on Android.

     magic-wormhole is one of the least terrible ways I've found (if you set it up properly transfer will use LAN only, otherwise it'll use the relay).
