Just bcs I was curious what would an exotic image search yield:

Yes, true, I looked for a better one but gave up :( (mid meeting at the office).

But overall productivity isn’t actually an issue, wealth concentration is, saying more work-hours are needed is such a shitty approach (well, there are much shittier ones too, def!).

That’s is just 10 days (two weeks) more than the mandatory minimum for new eyployees, it’s above average, but it’s what you get in most EU countries with some 10~20 years of work & a few kids.

(The orange part is just the starting minimum.)

Let’s goooo!

(And let’s support!!)

But that’s like twice the price of a regular 5090!!

/s

… so an almost prohibited “export” to China plated gold-finned to appease the leader of the gov that brought on said restrictions. Maybe it will be a state gift.

(Jk, gold look is very popular/has its place in Asia overall compared to Europe or north America. As a limited production of an exclusive high-end card centred around an already exclusive GPU, it makes marketing sense imo.)

Ball torture moved to the shaft.

I know it’s a popular saying, but idk if it cancels shit out.
Like, try taking about dead Nazis & how good they are - feels weird bcs of all the bad shit they did.

So no, perhaps just no good Nazis.

(in a fight, right?)

The key search words in your (Chinese? better than rewarding Amazon with even more extra fees) store of choice I wound suggest:

3.5" to 5.25" Internal Hard Disk Mount Rubber

But don’t get the ones where the inner mount (of the 3.5" drive) is the same piece or bolted/screwed into the outer mount (5.25").

The ones in my pic have fairy big rubber nips in between (each secured on both sides), 4 at the bottom (that support the weight of the disk too), and two on the sides.

Also such 5" brackets you can mount anywhere rally, even on the outside of the case, lol.
In one case without the 5.25" bays (at my parents, quick job) I mounted two disks on such mounts on that metal mesh between the PSU compartment and the main compartment.

Yeah, it’s fine … wait, IronWolves in a living space? Paired with that acoustic desk it must be like a train yard, but with more vibrations :D.

Edit: wrote this before I saw your comment acknowledging the same.
Well, with HDD there is the noise of the drive itself (the constant one & the searches, spin-ups), and the vibrations which can get acoustically amplified. For the former you need a case, any case, maybe a case in a case (ventilated ofc), for the latter I’ve always (since late 90s) had my HDD on full rubber, no non-rubber connection to the case.

My current NASies all use these (in desktop cases, I don’t like server hardware if it isn’t necessary, like with disks):

(They cost like 2 monies with shipping.)

So if going the 3D-print way, as you mentioned, I would def add the suggestion of incorporating thicc rubber pads or rubber straps into your design, like these ones (I’ve used them a lot decades ago, the only commercial option for silent PC enthusiasts at the time, but I’ve built then myself too):

(It’s rigid, the disks won’t fall out.)

… like, as a punishment, and you volunteer?

(jk, the forests are nice)
