      Please do not waste out precious drinking water. And now you have "tinnitus" because of the jumbo jets taking off right above where they work.
      Water treatment plants use lots of energy and some of which isn't renewable accounting for entropy. After it's in the Frasier river it would take lifetimes for the wasted water to reach the Langley water treatment plant.

      I mean... In Vancouver, where they are, in the dead of summer where this would be most needed, 150L/hr comes out to a little under 0.21CAD/hr. Freshwater is extremely plentiful in Canada, so even in the most restricted season in a dense city they'd be looking at a little under $5 a day to run that. Which definitely isn't _cheap_, per se, but isn't exactly crazy either.
      No promise that utilities don't check in on you to figure out where all this water is going, though, and possibly add additional levies.

    Doing it at a house in the country would be excellent. One with an electric well and a septic tank. The waste water goes into the septic tank, and eventually gets back to the underground reservoir. No wasted water, it just costs some electricity to run the well pump. So it's just a water cooler with a loop the size of the earth.

      speaking as someone who lives on well water, it would cost way more than that in the long run when you inevitable burn up your well pump and have to spend a couple thousand to have someone come out and pull it and replace it. Those pumps aren't designed for constant use like consistently running water for hours and hours with no break.

    You guys should kick out Linus more often! More of this content please, it's dirt cheap and it works fantastically.
    Cool down your cpu with gas now! No, not gasoline, that's way to safe to be fun, use LPG gas.
    Why this will actually work: 1) LPG doesn't have that high of a pressure compared to other gasses, 2) It will kind of work similar to a vapour chamber in it's phase change, 3) Even if it blows up you will have great content, 4) you can use the non flammable gas from a canned air duster (which has a similar boiling melting point and pressures to LPG). Circulate this in your loop and boom low ass temps! Don't forget the pressure relief valve that vents excess gas to outside the building and you'll be fine.

Place a bucket of ice water top of a shelf and ran some aquarium hose to the block and from the block into a 2L bottle. You suck on one end to get the water flowing a gravity did the rest. Got a overclocked FX-6100 @ 4.0 Ghz pretty cold. It works, but you have to dump the water into the top bucket every few mins.

    I always wondered, wouldn't it work to have like 30 meters of copper pipe ran in a grid with several pumps or however many it would take, wouldn't the water cool down on its own close to ambient temperature before it gets back to the water block?
    And come to think of it, ever heard of geothermal heat pumps? They utilize the constant subsurface temperature of the earth that is usually at about 15c at 4 meters below the surface and are usually used for heating but can be used for cooling using the ground loop as a heat sink. So if anyone has a geothermal heat pump system it would be a cool experiment to tap into the coolant line for pc cooling, or if they felt like putting in the time effort and money - dig a big hole and bury a loop of tubing. Wish I had the means to try it.
