Somehow I'm always (pleasantly) surprised to see Eve still popping up. Man my skills would be so far by now if I had just kept my subscription going for the sake of training.

The people I personally pay the least attention to are the people offended by this or that.  And I'm not even someone who exists in the public spotlight for a living.  Those who do probably care even less than I do--as they get surrounded by haters on a daily basis. 
 
And just for a reminder:
 
 
So why even be on or participate on this forum?  Or is this literally the last tech forum alive on the web?

Eve Online then Minecraft for being mobile

Since this thread has already been completely derailed, and there are apparently quite a few coffee connoisseurs present:
 
Any italian-espresso machine users that can tell me what the correct way to use it is? Because I've read that I should mount it completely, with cold water, then put it on a fire.
Or put only the water on the fire, wait until it boils, then mount then rest on top.
That I should fill the coffee holder (or whatever it's called) to the brim.
Or I shouldn't.
And I should push lightly on the coffee to make it more even.
Or I shouldn't.
 
So yeah... Halp plox?
I'm referring to one of these:

 

i use this, it cost 20 bucks and coffee tastes "almost" as good as from a ~€2000 espresso machine...

 
ive never used a "capsule" and i never will. i also only drink Lavaza, other coffee kinda tastes like dish washing water... eughh. 

Hands down Rick Astley.
Or HW Unboxed.

Nothing to do with Apple.
 
Everything to do with gullible idiots.

I got tired of waiting on prices to drop for a deals.  So i just got a laptop with the specs i wanted and dropped the $$$ on that.  5800x / 16g / 1.5tb nvme and a 3060, 1600 loonies out the door

I think, this might belong here:

Some time ago, I fell in love with the look of Nixie tubes. Nixie tubes are the kind of display which was used before 7-segment-displays came into market, so until maybe 1980ish or something. For futher information, go to https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nixie_tube

Since I love the aesthetics of these nixie tubes, I wanted them in a Computer for displaying CPU temperature and load, GPU temperature and load, RAM load and Graphic Memory Load. The general idea was to build something, that could have belonged in an old russian power plant, or something that could easily be interpreted as some kind of scientific instrument. So I made this retro looking system, with a custom watercooling. Since in the 1950s plastic tubing wouldn't be a viable option (and it also would have looked like sh!t, in combination with the rest), I used copper, brass and stainless steal fittings and tubes only. But why do I even bother to describe? Just take a look for yourself.
 
A general impression of the build:

 
Actually, it is a terrible design for repairing or modifying something. In order to get to the actual hardware, you have to loosen eight screws, disconnect the fans and the pump, and carefully lift the whole upper part, including the radiator, the pump and the reservoir. It is managable, but it is way more bothersome than just untightening two screws. Here a picture of the opened case:
 

 
The right section  of the PC (here bottom left) is the part, where the whole electronics for displaying the numbers on the nixie tubes is situated. Also, a regular D5 pump is screwed to the lid, you can estimate it's location by following the  metal tubes. Here a closeup of the electronics:
 

 
But I haven't even spoken about the most important part! Actually, since the beginning, I also had another purpose in mind for the PC. It was designed to be a heated surface, right next to where a human would be a great amount of time. In other words, it is a very nice cat resting place. My cat Günter already claimed it.




Oh, and I guess you guys also want to know the actual hardware. Here you go:
-Ryzen 3800x
-Geforce 1080ti
-16GB Ram
-500GB NVME SSD
-1TB S-ATA SSD
-2TB HDD
-8TB HDD
-MB: Gigabyte GA-AX370M-Gaming 3 

I hope, you guys like it! If any question remain, I would be happy to answer them. 

PS: The idea and design for this build was actually created, before ltt created their copper tube build. But since I am a poor student, and all parts together were like 2000€, I had to save quite a while for it. Whatever, I guess neither they nor I were the first ones to actually use copper tubes. So, Whatever.

Its pretty much the only option with idiots pushing EV's.....

With all due respect...  I'd worry more about your horrible cable management skills.  🙃

When you have very little of any income, even small savings in the power-bill can make a nice enough difference.
