    IT guy checking in.

    The only time I’ve even seen drive temp sensor alarms is on server raid arrays and other similar hard drives/SSDs… Never in my life have I seen one available on a consumer device, nor have I seen any alarm for and drive temp, go off. It just doesn’t happen.

    IMO, this is one of those language barriers where people call their computer chassis (and everything in it) the “hard drive”.

    Applying that assumption, their updated statement is: His computer over heated.

    Idk what kind of shit system he’s running on that 60k rows would cause overheating, but ok.

      As another IT guy here, it could also be a shitty method of analysis that he got from ChaptGPT. As an amateur coder/script writer, the kinds of code I’ve seen people use from these bots is disturbing. One of my coworkers asked me for help after trying to cobble together something from bots. There were variables declared and never used, variables that were never assigned values but that were used in expressions… it was like it attempted to do that ransom note made from magazine letters but they couldn’t spell coherently.
