The trick is to take the hard drive out of the EVA foam.

Technically they could have had been using a computer without any temperature sensors or fans and each row was actually a 1GB file.

And also they had a hairdryer pointed the the drive.

It's possible!

Hard drive? How old is his computer?

What in the fuck is this idiot doing? I've process datasets far larger than that and never once have I run into a hard drive "overheat". I mean what level of incompetence do you have to have to get a hard drive to overheat processing a measley 60K rows of data?
