I’m very sensitive to white noise so I’d rather have a 5 to 10 year service quiet fan. But I see the appeal. Perhaps setting the machine in a cabinet somewhere and use a fanless thin client at the desk. But that’s $$$$.
You could get a fiber optic display/HDMI cable, a fiber optic USB cable, and the USB hub, then just move the desktop tower into another room and run the cables through the walls or ceilings to your display setup. Might only be $100 or so cheaper than then a used business thin client, but at least you could still do something 4K 120Hz HDR 12bit over some distance without compromise. E.g:
Yeah, it’s not for everyone, I know. But it doesn’t bother me and I can rest assured that all fans are working all the time, so it’s a good deal for me.
I’ll try compiling it now. Also, it took me a while to realize FF is Firefox.
Edit: It failed! I tried 2 times, it starts compiling, but after some time, I just find the terminal closed and it doesn’t run. Anyways I won’t bother with it, I only did it to torture my computer a little.
Might be the out of memory killer. For me, Mach (Firefox’s build tool) usually did a multi-processed build assuming around 1 GB RAM per thread. Run ./mach build -j10 to limit the build to e.g. 10 threads. Or set mk_add_options MOZ_PARALLEL_BUILD=10 in your config file.
I probably should but I don’t feel like I’m qualified to create a fan community. (As in I don’t know enough about fans) Edit: Also I’m afraid there’s a community under that name on the instance I’m from and there can’t be two communities with the same name and instance right?
Yeah well. onlyfans@lemmy.world is already claimed. Though you can create another account on a different instance where it is not created already if you don’t mind the hassle. I also don’t think you need to even know about how fans work just to make a community about images of literal fans. It’s your choice.
