dank memes

Rules:

  1. All posts must be memes and follow a general meme setup.

  2. No unedited webcomics.

  3. Someone saying something funny or cringe on twitter/tumblr/reddit/etc. is not a meme. Post that stuff in /c/slop

  4. Va*sh posting is haram and will be removed.

  5. Follow the code of conduct.

  6. Tag OC at the end of your title and we'll probably pin it for a while if we see it.

  7. Recent reposts might be removed.

  8. Tagging OC with the hexbear watermark is praxis.

  9. No anti-natalism memes. See: Eco-fascism Primer

Huh neat, know what the plastic is? Is it expensive high temp shit or do they do something clever to stop it cooking where it couples to the hot parts?

The plastic shell is attached directly to the metal interior at a few points so I guess it must be some kind of high heat stuff there at least. The main solution however is they put an air-gap between the plastic shell and the metal interior, utilizing a couple of inlets on the bottom for "convection draft cooling".

It has melted a little on the edge above the slots tho.
