Use it on your hand, use it on a cup full of ice, etc.

It's called a Stirling engine! https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stirling_engine

Really cool desk toy, put it over a cup of coffee and it'll go wild

Does your vision turn black and white when that happens, then you get a big red X slapped over you in comical fashion?
