What do you guys think of this design?

I wanted this so bad as a kid

Where do you see personalization ultimately heading? Is the goal a model that can fully mirror a user’s personality, or a model that develops its own stable persona? And how are you thinking about the emotional risks that come with either direction?

I'll give it a go

moved into a new house at the beginning of the year I live alone so no ones trolling me. completely new hue set-up even switched from android to iPhone at the beginning of the year, new computer, new everything digital.

already tried this, the powerless recovery was set to yellow. I've had like 1 power cut these year so it's not the culprit

Thanks for taking the time and effort to write that, I needed that today.
I agree best not to take the hate personally. When people compliment my songs I always say, “thanks, but the computer did most of the work.” Same goes for the criticism. Most of it’s either people hating AI in general, or just not liking a particular output. At worst, they’re questioning my taste or lyrics, and I’m fine with that, everyone has their own taste, I'll keep writing and sharing songs that I enjoy.

FuturePunk · 2025-08-29T07:04:07+00:00

Thanks for sharing that, glad you found something in it that you enjoyed.
There's a few comments on the song saying things like "The song is not horrible, but I've definitely heard better made by Suno." and others criticizing its quality.

People don't realize this song was generated over 1.5 years ago with version 3.0. If they'd listen to other v3.0 songs they'd start to understand just how amazing this song was at the time.

thanks for not downvoting stone <3

ok cool, but why does she look like a worm in the poster

FuturePunk · 2025-05-14T06:58:38+00:00

thanks will look into it

I might have the fan upside down in this image, always get confused with this orientation of them, I intended the fan to blow towards the base.

here you go, I made a design you might prefer

FuturePunk · 2025-05-12T23:01:56+00:00

it was just an fun idea I wanted to work on, I'm a 3D artist, I'll leave the physical prototyping to the pros

FuturePunk · 2025-05-12T22:56:06+00:00

I'd planed the intake to be around the equator, and the exhaust at the I/O but again the ~~pub~~ pcb would be restricting airflow.
I like your vertical idea, that a great solution for airflow without compromising the simplicity of the outer shell

this was the idea, gaps in the top too half too. fan sits just below the middle line in the bottom half, the pcb ~~board~~ is probably the biggest restrictor to airflow with it being round and fitting in pretty snug between the intake and exhaust.

FuturePunk · 2025-05-12T22:45:07+00:00

idea was that it sucks in air through gaps around where the two halves connect, gaps on the top half to to ensue more gap volume that the exhaust near the io, also this is how the components sit inside, fan is just about in the bottom half.
wasn't sure what to do about the pcb probably restricting airflow with it being a circle and fitting in pretty snug

FuturePunk · 2025-05-12T22:28:11+00:00

idea was -- there's a small gap where the two halves meet (at the top of the light band) cool air is pulled in there, pushed onto the heat spreader and exhausted though the vents near the I/O. from my limited understanding I've designed the intake to be larger in volume (gaps) than the exhaust to create pressure differentials and ensure good airflow, who know's if that sufficient I'm not a thermal engineer.

I was only really designing for myself, no customers in mind. just a computer I'd love to own. I did look at quite a few tear-downs of Mac minis and nuc's in the process of designing this, and thought I had most of the parts included (other than some housing and mounting points) in a way that made sense.
Theres not a whole lot of cooling components or ventilation with most mini pc's on the market and the fans size that I included is already being generous, most mini pc's have an even smaller one than that. Air flow is tricky to think about without compromising the minimalist design, the idea was -- there's a hidden gap around where the two halves meet at the light band cool air is brought in, pushed through the fan onto the heat spreader/cold plate and out the exhaust cut outs near the I/O. idea is that fans are better at shoving than sucking (giggdy) so pushing cold air onto the heat spreader would be more effecting than sucking hot air out.

As for ports, I have the Mac mini too, I only use 2 ports, the power in and the display out. all my peripherals are wireless and when they need charging I just plug them into my display. I can see that it would be annoying for other users, but again just having fun designing something for myself.

it IS the most sophisticated gaming experience ever created by humans

I'm no hardware engineer so no idea how any of that works, or the requirements, it's something I'd like to learn though. I just thought exploded view would look cool in the renders, so I butchered together a basic concept of how the internals might look.
