If you download and extract the tarball as two separate steps instead of piping curl directly into tar xz (for gzip) / tar xj (for bz2) / tar xJ (for xz), are you even a Linux user?

the problem is if the connection gets interrupted your progress is gone. you download to a file first and it gets interrupted, you just resume the download later
