Currently trying to stop my Linux Mintbox from thermal throttling during an update by pointing a fan at it.

This thing would definitely qualify for Little Guys. It is a passively cooled plastic heatsink machine from the early 2010s which is very sad and pathetic by modern standards. However compared to other little guys it has a lot of CPU power, and therefore way too much heat to actually passively cool itself under intense workloads. It works fine under normal conditions, but updates are a struggle for it.

so-called Linux Mintbox when it is the Linux Hotbox
