  • The other day at our city park, a dude came along in his truck, with a trailer and a 4 wheeler on the trailer. He just wanted to enjoy a ride around in the good weather.

    Not much of a big deal really, but they don’t like people parking or driving on the grass, and they definitely don’t like people driving a motor vehicle on the walking/jogging track…

    Welp, someone called the cops on him, and they sent 3 police cars out for him. Within about a half hour of the cops talking with him, he was arrested, and they sent not one but two tow trucks, one for his truck and the other for his trailer and 4 wheeler.

    Apparently, going by the inmate search I did later, he was stubborn and didn’t care to obey the cops, and also charged with resisting arrest. The way the inmate report read seemed like the cops tried giving him a warning and an out, like take that shit out of the park, but he was too stubborn to comply. 🤦‍♂️

    So now he’s in jail plus he’s gonna have at least 2 vehicle impound fees, maybe 3 if the impound considers the trailer and the 4 wheeler as 2 separate vehicles.

    Fuckin’ dumbass, it should be common sense to like not drive a motor vehicle on a walking track at a public park.

    Whatever, not my problem.









  • While you’re effectively right in your comparison, you also must understand the difference between electronic data center cooling vs vehicle engine cooling.

    Vehicle engines run best at a higher temperature range than electronics, so they install a thermostat, to literally bring the engine temperature up to a suitable range for ideal performance. But the thermostat is not necessary (unless you live near cold polar regions and want heat).

    The thermostat can be safely removed from vehicles in more comfortable climates and the vehicle will run just fine, but just quite a bit cooler.

    So, take the concept of a closed loop cooling system, remove the thermostat from the equation, and you got a more viable closed loop system more suitable to keep electronics cool.
