Yeah, it only has a UART and I2C. That really limits what you can use it for. It would be much more useful if it also had SPI and a few GPIO pins.

Never mind that it's not even "I"

Agreed, but regarding the second part I think there's no way to tell, and I would expect real intelligence to be even heavier on resources until we change something fundamentally, like growing neurochips out of real neurons.

I was hoping for an actual SAK

Thanks, that made me take a second look at it. I've been wanting to DIY a smart thermostat...

I swear to God if we reach a point where people start making their own RAM sticks

Not much for io though

If they had only included LoRa, the Meshtastic folks would be all over this.

Looks like an excellent candidate for a thermostat project.

Most inefficient solution ever.

be kid in 80s

get told we will have jetpacks by 2025

2025

underwater jetpacks

Was I trolled for 40 years?

Looks really fun, but the $102k^*^ price tag is out of my budget.

^*^ made up, I couldn't see a price on that page

So not as much as a PC case than a PC cover - that is still used as a radiator.

So 50kg + 10kg of water. And a PC.
Quite a serious ITX build.

Not posting for anyone. Not my product. Just sharing cool gadgets I come across.

Why kickstart something that already is available via aliex etc, most likely this is just a new plastic cover

Your covert ad sucks and so does your product.

Oh boy, just remember to not use those with scuba gear.

Should be fun though.

What if they just take the pod?

Yeah, there's no way the delivery guy is going to take the time to put a package in there. Half the time they leave the package on the end of the deck out in the rain instead of putting it under the eaves.

Yes, but no. Iron is still a good conductor of heat. It is just slower than aluminum and copper, so it is a poor material for making small materially efficient heat sinks. But it is perfectly fine for making large heavy heat sinks.

The reason it is said iron retains heat in cooking is because it has a high thermal mass (this is mainly because cast iron is so dense and non-ductile(so it has to be made thicker to not break)). It takes a lot of energy transfer to cool down a heavy cast iron pan. Conversely, it takes a lot of energy transfer to heat up a heavy cast iron pan. As long as heat-in<heat-out it will work as a cooler.

Never mind that it's not even "I", just "A". Real AI won't require nearly so much resources because it won't be faking it.

Al is a money and power sink.

It isn't as good as Al but that is still a massive heat sink.

It should evacuate it slowly through radiation and transfer to the air that will flow through it by convection.

Normally passive cooling like that can't keep up with a typical modern desktop computer. But given how extremely heavy and large surface area it has, it might work. Provided that it is big enough and that the iron can conduct heat away from the source and spread it throughout its mass fast enough. Usually we use copper or aluminium for that for their better thermal conductivity.

zephyr are a card refurbisher, not an OEM. from what I gather, their dies are sourced from mining rigs, I'm not surprised they die at the rate they suggest.

It's like a couple years back, when this YouTube repair channel suggested a specific version of adrenalin was killing a bunch of NV21's en masse (literally cracking dies in many cases, which is impossible to achieve via software). They conventinely left out the fact that all of these GPUs were sourced from mining farms where they were abused as hell.

iron? wont that retain heat?
