S3. Sometimes I do that even when I'm transferring on my local network just because I know the flow so well. After all, my speed to the Internet is roughly the same as the speed on my LAN. They're both gigabit duplex.

You config IAM perms every time?

I actually just use https://docs.aws.amazon.com/cli/latest/reference/s3/presign....

Then I copy-paste that into a self-Slack and `wget` it on the other side.

It's almost equivalent ergonomically to a `python3 -m http.server` and because it's the same whether I'm giving to someone else or to myself, I spend less thinking!
