PeltierBeer Equipment

I found this project nearly a year ago, but for some reason it never made its way into the WTMT! collection until now.  Now I've been known to more than happily quaff a beer or two on occasion, but this is just silly.  For starters, if you need this thing, you need to either (a) not drink, or (b) drink faster.  Besides, in the picture's it's a Guinness.  Generally, I find with a quality dark beer like this it's usually too cold and I need to warm it in my hands to get it to a suitable drinking temperature.  But if you're one of those knuckleheads who's still drinking cheap american swill, then by all means start building!  The colder you can get that shit, the less of it's nearly tasteless, horid flavor you will be exposed too!  And for future reference kids, "Quality over quantity".

Wasting time with batteries and Linux

Dear God,

Please stop this kind of madness!

Thank You,

Can't you people find something more productive to do with your spare time? Write some useful code, clean your monitor and keyboard or even go for a walk! Anything would likely be a more productive use of your time. Unless of course Pierre-Philippe Coupard is under the age of 12. In which case my apologies and congratulations on doing something productive instead of playing video games.

The Doombolt

Alright, here's just another classic example of "Way Too Much Time!" topic section. And again it seems to be college students that have all this excess idle time. Color me jealous!

So without further ado, here it is... The Doombolt. Not terribly practical, but quite educational. And it looks as though it would be quite an enjoyable way to waste some time. Jealous again!

What to do during a long Finnish winter?

Why overclock your PC! And anyone who knows anything about overclocking, knows that CPU and GPU overheating is your biggest enemy. Thus you need a cooling solution. And here's one that's certainly bigger and better than anything I've ever seen.

At the very least, make sure you checkout the picture on page 5 to see this thing fully assembled. Apparently the author thought it was worth it: "Overall this was one great project. It required a lot work and took couple weeks to get everything up and running but I feel that it was worth it."
