This was fun! Thx for your hard work!

[@spencerford11]

Try undervolting the cpu slightly very slightly, should help tame the heat without losing much performance. Like 0.05v.

[@SpaceinvaderOne]

It was great talking with you. I really enjoyed it :)

[@SPXLabs]

Hurray Jason made it!

What's Jason painting now? Is he going to bling it up with some gold flake?

[@JustARandomSomething]

Who's your ISP with that speed? I'm in the UK, currently with Virgin Media.

[@digiblurDIY]

HAOS VM is easy to setup but not so easy when stuff breaks and when you need to do more than basic tasks.
