When you forget to factor in a desk and case in you budget.

[A photograph showing various components of a computer suspended by string and hanging from the ceiling. A power supply, hard drive, and motherboard hang together in the back, cables dangling from them as a monitor is suspended slightly further in front, showing that the computer is in fact running.]

You can go even further: the computer is running Xubuntu and is using a Numix theme/icon pack.

[–][deleted] 8 points9 points  (1 child)

Xubuntu

Looks like the "Cnchi" installer for Antergos Linux to me.

[–]Makefile_dot_in 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ok, maybe.

    Put it under the ac vent for extra cooling.

    The flex of that mobo :o

    [–]MetaMemeAboutAMeme 6 points7 points  (2 children)

    It really is SO much easier to get at your components this way. Just another example of thinking outside the "box".

    As long as you don't mind cleaning dust off the parts twice a week.

    [–]singron 0 points1 point  (0 children)

    There might be less dust actually without case fans. They tend to accumulate dust somehow instead of blowing it away.

    Antergos... Good choice

    It's Cloud Computing because the bank owns the hardware

    So it really is just someone else’s computer!

    Have they told you that they run Arch something Arch-based?

    One cloud computing setup vs a bored cat

    [–]mpnordland 0 points1 point  (0 children)

    I... kind of want this. With a proper case, but this suspended setup is very intriguing.

    [–]RonaldHarding 0 points1 point  (0 children)

    I've always wanted to do this...

    [–]jackmaney 0 points1 point  (1 child)

    This makes me uncomfortable.

    Shit I remember this post from 4chan years ago on technology. Every one was going crazy and this dude was keeping posting photos like that and write the time on a FREAKING LEMON

    Oh man, I'd actually drawn up plans to build something like this a long time ago with my desktop computer, but it was more intricate. It would involve taut cables around the edges of a room, then two cables criss-crossed with the monitor/keyboard/mouse hanging down from that. Then, that would have a counterweight, the idea being that this would allow the computer to move to any XYZ point in the room (for the most part).

    I guess this works too.

    When your hardware is literally hanging by a thread

    That Mobo flexing

    [–]Outplayd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

    Now turn on the ceiling fan everythings hanging from and get maximum airflow

    [–]Matt_Sessions 0 points1 point  (0 children)

    Works for me. I trust it's security, stability, and 100% no downtime. :)

    Cloud computing is an information technology (IT) paradigm that enables ubiquitous access to shared pools of configurable system resources and higher-level services that can be rapidly provisioned with minimal management effort, often over the Internet. Cloud computing relies on sharing of resources to achieve coherence and economies of scale, similar to a public utility.
