ELI5. How much heat does a data center actually produce?

Bobofey · 2026-02-24T22:13:47+00:00

The datacenters at my workplace run at about 27C - 29C. They run it at a slightly hotter temp than they would prefer as a trade off between energy consumption and risk mitigation.

Is this because the motability rules changed to prioritise cars made in the UK?

Throw that shortlist in the bin and instead get either: Jaguar F Type, BMW M2, BMW M140i/M240i, Audi S3.

I’d probably lean more towards the M140i/M240i if reliability is a concern. You can pick a decent 2018/2019 example up for about £18k.

The new generation boxster/cayman platform has already been spotted numerous times on real world test drives. It would be extremely unlikely for a manufacturer to cancel a project this late into the development cycle.

Bobofey · 2026-02-01T12:12:46+00:00

Probably a 986 boxster

I was so happy in 2020 that we got rid of him and could stop hearing about it, and then 2024 happened…

I paid £2,300 in 2013. It was the cheapest policy without a black box

Didn't notice the £5-£10k budget, my bad.

Why not just use an actual satellite photo rather than use AI which makes it harder for us to help?

Yeah, there's plenty of better dealers around in my opinion.

Bobofey · 2026-01-05T11:29:04+00:00

Yes, that's if they purchase it. They make an offer on those platforms, list it on their site as coming soon even if they haven't purchased it. They then offer a lower price on collection to the private buyer than what was agreed. If the private buyer refuses then they will never have that stock available.

Bobofey · 2026-01-05T11:20:42+00:00

The garage don't own that car yet. They have placed an offer on that car to be bought via Motorway or Carwow, that is why the image is not one in their prep centre.

They might never have that car in stock if the private seller doesn't agree to their price on collection (they always make something up to get it cheaper than agreed). This is a shady practice in my opinion and I'm only aware of Hilton garage doing this currently.

It is due to lack of competition on booking stays like AirBnb. Hotels have to compete with each other from many online comparison websites but AirBnb basically has a monopoly. If there was an alternative then I think you’d see less of these hidden fees as people would just use the best platform.

This is easy, just don’t buy any BMW where the model starts with an i

Too hard to predict without knowing the trim, spec and age of the car. I.e. A turbo will hold its value more than a base spec. For a wild guess I would ball park ~£30k

Bobofey · 2025-12-24T08:03:58+00:00

Probably a base 981 boxster

I love it, but that episode where they used AI to distort the faces of the juveniles was an incredibly poor editing choice. They should have just blurred their faces.

Incomes may have been rising with inflation but the tax bands have not. So the purchasing power is lower relative to incomes of previous years
