did you know you can spend $100 and get a chunk of sapphire that could be used as a melee weapon? https://store.gemsofscience.com/products/optical-sapphire-cores-and-wafers

oh, it turns out that what happened would be:
i install nodejs
this causes the base system to be updated from 15.1 to 15.1p3
this causes freebsd to decide to autonomously reboot (wtf??)
this causes the CI orchestrator i'm using to falsely report it as a timeout despite no such thing happening

more than four times slower (i'm not sure what the exact time is, that's just how much i had to bump the timeout so far) than apt install of the same set of software
edit: nevermind, the piece of software that was reporting the timeouts was lying to me

wow, installing anything from ports on freebsd is absurdly slow
