That's an excellent point. It's amazing how fast it'll heat up a room!

I just learned there's a company that takes advantage of this by using render farm nodes to provide hot water or something?

Genius idea. Render farm as space heater. Don't see why compiling / transcoding would be any different. 😂

I'm definitely gonna have to wait until next winter. It's foolishness to be running the GPU that hard when it's 100⁰F+ outside!

In a few French cities they use the heat from data centers to heat up public pools
