That's actually pretty much the opposite of how that works. More fans generally mean lower noise as they don't need to run as hard to deliver the same volume of air. Same with larger fans. There is eventually a point where adding more fans hurts rather than helps, but it's probably more fans than you would think. All of this is especially true for watercooling and radiator fans, the more radiator area and associated fans you have the better. My desktop with 3 radiators and 8 radiator fans is quieter than my server with one radiator, 3 radiator fans and 2 case fans, and that's despite the desktop having a higher total heat load.

I suspect the actual PC used is at least fairly powerful though. Like someone else said it's likely using ECC as its mission critial, so chances are it also has other expensive server parts inside. Not all powerful computers actually look like anything fancy at all. This post reminds me of things like the watercooling subreddit and the amount of effort and money they put into things like aesthetics, that don't actually improve performance at all. Even though the original point of watercooling was performance.
You can often just disable all the lights in the UEFI instead including when on.
If its an Asus there is actually a setting to deal specifically with the lighting. One in the UEFI turns it off completely. Otherworldly you can install their software and tell it to turn off when the PC is off or in sleep mode.
To me it looks like they used a bad camera that's too soft. That's all. AI images are often sharper and better looking than this if done using a good enough model and techniques.
There are actual cats that look like this, so probably it's real. It certainly doesn't seem AI generated to me.
GPTs also don't make images. That's not what Transformers do, and GPT means Generative Pre-trained Transformer. It's diffusion models and variational autoencoders that make images.
I don't think this is AI generated spam. There is apparently a real breed of cat that looks like this. I think you need to be less paranoid, this is lemmy.
You could always put Linux on it. I believe there is a way to do that for most ChromeBooks nowadays.
You can do. If you don't that's when you get the fire, or more likely a whole bunch of breakers flip and you are in a black start situation.
Reminds me of that one cop show from the BBC that covers an internal affairs and anti-corruption team. It's called Line of Duty.
Not with that attitude you can't!
What kind of maintenance were you doing? Building the things is turning out to be a pain for me, but actual maintenance shouldn't be much more than for a regular PC. You still have to dust a regular PC after all. You do occasionally have to change fluid, but shouldn't need doing more than every 4 years or so if you use something like DP Ultra or car coolant.
