"lmao did you guys hear about the guy who tried to overclock his rig with, like, 17 GPUs and ended up blowing a hole in his wall?" That's gotta be a close contender for worst tech move of the year. What's your craziest experiment fail story?"
"Lol, just had my smart speaker try to 'learn' my voice by blasting this annoying robot voice all day I was away. I came home to find it still blasting the same voice, thought the neighbors were playing some sick prank on me. Turns out it was just Alexa being extra."
"Got a crazy one - I was trying to run a DIY cryptocurrency mining rig using an old Xbox and a Raspberry Pi. It ended up overheating and setting off my fire alarm, so yeah, that was a first... not sure if anyone else has had a similar 'experiment' gone wrong"
