You get no shade from me. My only beef is with programmers who act like they are experts in all things computer when they aren’t.
BTW, the issue in the picture is that the CPU cooler is attached to the wall of the case instead of the CPU. It shuts down because modern hardware will usually turn itself off when it overheats to mitigate the risk of permanent damage.

Some old cpus would actually go up in smoke if you ran them without cooler: https://youtu.be/Xf0VuRG7MN4

I thought that was the cooler of a different component and the cpu just lacks one. Now that you said it, I see the CPU footprint on the cooler.
