Great, now my electron wallet doesn't want to work anymore. Said something about "busy influencing the fusion rate" and "please wait while I maintain the overall electrical neutrality within the plasma" or somesuch
Okay hear me out, we got nuclear fusion, now place some water in a massive tub on top of the pc.

Ackshually this is well within the range of a Class F star, unlike our class G sun which is a bit cooler. This is getting cloe to the temperature of Procyon A which is noticeably whiter than the sun.
Take both of them and slap a sterling engine between them. Unless both servers combined are eating thousands of watts an hour you could end up net energy positive.... Or you know perpetual energy.
I guess technically. This makes me wonder what actually qualify as stars. Do neutron stars? Do black holes?
UPDATE: By the definitions on wikipedia, miriam-webster dictionary and britanica, a brown dwarf this cold may not actually qualify to be a star. I will search further for astronomical definition.
Brown dwarfs are classified as substellar objects because they can't fuse hydrogen into helium and don't undergo the same lifecycle as stars. White dwarfs aren't stars either, they are stellar remnants that don't have enough mass to keep fusing heavier elements, usually stopping at carbon and oxygen.
Absolute zero is 0 K, which is the theoretical temperature at which particles have minimal vibrational motion. Since 6553.55 K is greater than 0 K, it is greater than absolute zero.

To be fair, I still have this Lemmy award idea, with a twist. The pay goes to awardee's preferred open-source project as donation.

Half of it split between the instances of the awarder and awardee, the other half as you said.

So I was curious and looked it up because I would have assumed that stars/suns are much hotter than that.

Turns out the coldest star is 97°C at its surface. So I guess CPUs regularly reach (coldest) star temperature?
