Head over to https://lmg.gg/pK4Wi and check out their Codex R2 AI desktop! Suddenly LTT Labs has a SECOND environmental test chamber at their disposal! I really don’t think Linus expected to win the auction when he put in his lowball bid - but there’s a couple problems. The manufacturer went out of business years ago, the chamber hasn’t been powered on in a decade, and it’s been stored outside in a surplus yard for years! This should be quite the adventure.
