    This is very cool apart from the body fluids in your prize thing, because that's fucking stupid.

    Depending on whose blood it is, it could be pretty cool. Some rando’s blood? Gross. Gamer girl blood? Excellent heat conductor.

    Never mind that 'infusing' can mean basically anything - I still think it reflects an off-putting attitude towards our bodies. The concept itself seems immature and gross. If it makes people donate blood, it's hard to actually oppose it though.

    Not gonna lie, that sounds slightly illegal (likely isn't?) and also slightly disgusting. Like, I'd probably dig the esthetic, but I don't want random peoples blood in my PC.

    I seem to remember something similar a little while ago except it was like a pair of shoes or something.

    Edit: It was Lil Nas X and his Satan Nikes.

    Blizz, you throw in one of those breastmilk-dispensers you got strewn around the office and you got yourself a deal mister.

    Can’t wait to have the blood go rancid and spill everywhere

    The blood drive is good, blood in the coolant not so much. Keeping a coolant line clean is very important, and taking it apart to clean it is a bit of a pain in the ass. Just use red dye instead.

    Its heartwarming to see that those idiots from acclaim's marketing team got a job again.

    More likely than not, any BBP would die before transferring to you through an open wound months later. HIV can only survive outside the body for minutes. Not sure how long Hep C lasts, but I can't imagine it would be longer than a few days at most.

    ...where did this blood come from, though!?

    Probably just the people building the computer. Knicking your finger or scraping a knuckle while building a server is frequently called giving it a blood sacrifice, so anything custom is invariably going to have trace amounts of incidental human blood on some components.

    I think that's actually some cool promotion. I'd love to have it. Well, US only. That's sad.

    But I want a computer with its processor tied to the power supply with strands of John Romero's hair.

    Blizzard would really do anything to drive attention to their shitty games.
