My worst nightmare is that I am trying to present something and the computer fans start hitting max power and there is nothing I can do about it. Thanks to integrated per-component fans being handled by whatever proprietary firmware module even knows it exists, there is no current operating system that can treat all fans equally at the software level and throttle them to prevent noise. The best you can do is stop presenting, reboot, and pray that whatever was triggering the fan speed increase has stopped.

Linux users might try to say otherwise, pretending that CPU fans are the only fans that exist (fancontrol, etc), but there really isn't any way to universally adjust all fans regardless of how they are connected because they simply aren't connected the same way at the hardware level (pray to amdgpu, nvidia, to just 'handle it' with a bunch of magic thermal numbers).

y'all know that revenge isn't praxis right?
it doesn't improve people's material conditions
it doesn't make people safer
it doesn't act as deterrent
it isn't revolutionary

if you want revernge say you went revenge. if you want blood say you want blood.

like fr, y'all need to remember that even when it's "the bad guys" getting hurt

"Marxists think a person is in a state of false consciousness if her political or social interests go another way than her material or financial interests. If you adopt this view, then you probably think that the Reagan Democrats just need to be educated correctly about what they have in common with the black poor and working class. You have to think that their hatred of black people is somehow "false" simply because it runs counter to their financial interests. But this would be to ignore their interest in maintaining white supremacy and antiblack racism. One of the things white men would lose would be access to black bodies for sexual pleasure and amusement."
