Thermal management Memes

Someone took "more holes = better airflow" to its logical extreme by apparently drilling hundreds of extra holes into their PC case. This is the hardware equivalent of optimizing your code by removing all the whitespace. Sure, technically you've increased ventilation, but at what cost? Your warranty, structural integrity, and dignity all died for a 0.5°C temperature drop. Next up: watercooling with an actual garden hose.

When your gaming laptop hits 90°C and the warranty doesn't cover "acts of stupidity." That moment when you've tried everything—closing Chrome tabs, elevating the laptop, praying to the silicon gods—and then you remember that ancient cooling technique from the Paleolithic era. Sure, squirting water directly onto electronics is basically baptizing your motherboard into the church of permanent damage, but hey, at least you'll have those 3 seconds of reduced temperature before the smoke signals start!
