Cooler Master claims changes to CPU Thermal Paste packaging in order to appease needlessly concerned parents

Cooler Master claims that changes in its thermal paste packaging are intended to prevent angry calls from parents that assume that their children—who are presumably not trying to get high, but instead trying to keep their CPU temperatures low—are trying to do drugs due to the syringe-like shape previously used.

This claim is probably a tongue-in-cheek publicity effort in order to raise awareness for the company's new thermal paste packaging (which sacrifices some precision during application for increased convenience), but hey, it's working—you're reading this right now!

If you have any experiences with injecting thermal paste, please comment your experiences below.

(The author of this post does not actually condone or encourage the injection of thermal paste into human bodies and/or other unintended uses of thermal paste.)

    Someone sent you some POCKET tokens. POCKET is an experimental sub-token system which operates on the Steem blockchain. It's like having a custom token without SMT. You can also send some to someone else by just commenting on a post with the following command: pocketsend:number_of_token@recipient_name,memo for example to send 10 tokens to @pocketjs, make a comment starting with: pocketsend:10@pocketjs,This is a gift

    I am running Pocket-JS confirmer code.
