I'm sure American Airlines baggage handlers will figure out a way to destroy it.

Chinese propaganda... a hammer not destroy it but a virus inside of bad bios will destroy your life. Don't brick your self

Send one to TechRax, I'm sure we'll see if those claims hold up.

So they did something that an aircraft's black box has been doing for ages...

I was reading until I got to the part that said "Intel"

Those were pretty weak attempts. Earlier this summer I took out a tree stump in my yard using an axe and split maul used in conjunction and that hammer was barely dropped on those blocks. A trip to the range also likely wouldn't end well. I was thinking of doing that to a phone I really hated for a while and then I noticed these mini pcs come with Arrow Lake which should be a nice combination with the form factor for performance and sound levels and my malice for it left. I already went through my mini pc phase years ago, but if I was still interested in that stuff one of these boxes would be pretty nice.

All you need to do, is hit it directly with the hammer. The breeze blocks spread the impact force and, by breaking, partially absorbed it.

Now if only geekom/kamrui/acemagic put decent parts in their minipcs and didn't prevent real buyers from reviewing them on amazon. Until a few get through, they delete the listing and start over with a fresh one?

And if they didn't tell me that they wouldn't take a return until I deleted the one star review I left? Amazon took the return anyhow. But they'll never see my $ again. I've had good luck with minisforum. Seems they don't fib as much about specs, use brand name stuff, etc. Not noname sata "SSD's", half baked wifi and bluetooth and overheating problems.

Then they wouldn't end up dragged behind a car, nor would that be quite as satisfying?

What They call a torture test is what we call a normal day at the office.
