Found a post complaining about slow build times for OpenWRT, found a gem in the replies.

"Simply have a child, then once they having a gaming PC, backdoor it to use as a build host!"

Screenshot from a forum:

quoted text:

bullet point get a faster build host
bullet point dabble with ccache

post body:

I achieved the first bullet by "allowing" my teenage child to purchase and assemble a gaming system (ensuring it had 32 gig ram and that virtualization was enabled in the bios), then set about installing ssh (so I could log on and build projects with them knowing it), and finally, as it is running win10, installing wsl2 (there are some tricks here to keep a screen session running on wsl even if I log out from ssh).

Assuming one does not have a teenage child interested enough in gaming to unwittingly build you your own build box or a teenage child is beyond one's current budget, the second bullet point is likely a better option.

EDIT teenage children also typically take 12-14 years from conception to get to the point of desiring a gaming pc.

This is a Pallid Bat. They live in the Western US and in Mexico.

They are so cute I want to throw myself into traffic.

They eat mostly insects and fly close to the ground when hunting, 1-2 meters above the earth.

They are so cute that I feel the need to fall to my knees and scream, scream, scream forever.

They eat the most venomous scorpion in NA, Arizona Bark Scorpions.

The feeling I am feeling when I behold this bat is called "cute aggression".

The cutest most earnest bat you have ever seen is cheesing at the camera with a toothy grin in the gloved hand of a human. Its an orangey tan with a boopable nose and big brown eyes. Each of its ears are twice as big as the rest of its face.

Wikipedia asserts that: "In 1983,[2] Andreas Reuter and Theo HΓ€rder coined the acronym ACID, building on earlier work by Jim Gray[3] who named atomicity, consistency, and durability, but not isolation, when characterizing the transaction concept."

But, from Gray's 1980 "A Transaction Model":

The users of the system author programs and invoke them as transactions. They are assured that each invocation:

Will be executed exactly once (reliability)

Will be isolated from temporary violations of the consistency constraint introduced by actions of concurrently executing transactions (consistency).
