Installing gcc on my machine

I have moved to a rural area, bought a new PC, and have no internet here, save for the satellite of the phone.

I asked for ubuntu to make it simple and without hassle but the guys gave me something without gcc (only perl and python, not that this is relevant).

So now I'm downloading deb files with the phone and transferring to the PC via USB to install them manually with dpkg, while trying to understand the dependency tree.

This is like kicking dead whales down the beach.

tethering seems like a much easier option
if you can't do it with your phone, get a mobile hotspot device and plan

Use tcc instead.

Bellard's entries won the International Obfuscated C Code Contest three times.[2] In 2000, he won in the category "Most Specific Output"[3] for a program that implemented the modular Fast Fourier Transform and used it to compute the then biggest known prime number, 26972593−1.[4] In 2001, he won in the category "Best Abuse of the Rules" for a tiny compiler (the source code being only 3 kB in size) of a strict subset of the C language for i386 Linux. The program itself is written in this language subset, i.e. it is self-hosting. In 2018, he won in the category "Most inflationary"[5] for an image decompression program.[6]

In 2004, he wrote the TinyCC Boot Loader, which can compile and boot a Linux kernel from source in less than 15 seconds.[7] In 2005, he designed a system that could act as an Analog or DVB-T Digital TV transmitter by directly generating a VHF signal from a standard PC and VGA card.[8] In 2011, he created a minimal PC emulator written in pure JavaScript. The emulated hardware consists of a 32-bit x86 compatible CPU, a 8259 Programmable Interrupt Controller, a 8254 Programmable Interrupt Timer, and a 16450 UART.[9]

On 31 December 2009 he claimed the world record for calculations of pi, having calculated it to nearly 2.7 trillion places in 90 days. Slashdot wrote: "While the improvement may seem small, it is an outstanding achievement because only a single desktop PC, costing less than US$3,000, was used—instead of a multi-million dollar supercomputer as in the previous records."[10][11] On 2 August 2010 this record was eclipsed by Shigeru Kondo who computed 5 trillion digits, although this was done using a server-class machine running dual Intel Xeon processors, equipped with 96 GB of RAM.

the then biggest known prime number, 26972593−1

I doubt that.

2^6972593−1

>>6
I believe you then.

>>7
The biggest known number however is -1/12
