That seems like a very balanced approach beyond what I was even considering; I like it.

The guys channel is full of mad science slapdash stuff to make things work that otherwise, just shouldn't lol. I take that approach to my homelab (with some caveats, since I'm not trying to lose all my data lol), and just kind of throw things together with some minimal understanding of how they fit conceptually.

There's a Canadian mechanic on YouTube and one of his sign-offs was "if you don't fuck around, how will you ever find out?" Which does feel kind of philosophical to me lol

Idk if it counts but I work in the auto industry and regularly pop conservatives bubbles about how "great" Elongated Muskrat is.

I've never been so disappointed in myself lol

I appreciate the kind words! Until recently, my day job was CAD monkey. I wanted to consolidate the hardware I was cobbling together, found a cheap 8 GPU mining rig and some extra 2020 extrusions to play with.

The seller for the mezzanine said it followed the mATX mounting hole pattern, (it does but is ~75% in the width and doesn't use all the points). I have a tendency to overthink designs and kind of stalled for a bit before finally taking the plunge and whipping up these struts. I used some brass heat set inserts to accept the standoffs and everything pretty much went right together lol

I am using PTM sheets and they idle at decent temps, though I did ziptie some high CFM fans behind them lol

eBay has some rad Chinese mezzanine boards for these guys too. Nvlink works and everything lol

Eagerly

Lews Therin Telamon? Is WoT leaking?

Yeah I mean I don't know the rest of the story I guess. Like, maybe there's a perfectly good reason that they're doing what they're doing 🤷

Plus like, i might not mind 👀

I'd be worried looking might be interpreted as leering or being otherwise disrespectful.
