Carpal Tunnel on the way...

That's why I don't play with my devices 24/7... Even with my phones, I have to take break or blood flow in my hand stops due to heat and vibration the phone generates...

My computer gets so hot I think it is going to explode most days...

Modern computers run a lot hotter than 10 year old ones... My 1 year old PC has so many fans that if all run even at 50%, temperature drops by 20 degrees centigrade.

But nowadays it's all about power efficiency, so fans don't turn on until internals reach critical temperature, which is pretty much 90 degrees centigrade, when older PCs had upper limit of 72 degrees centigrade.

I remember when my father's PC did hit 127 degrees centigrade, pretty much everything else worked except IDE drives, because the cable did melt...

I think mine is pretty close to melting some things. It's extremely hot and burns you if you touch the wrong spot...

"Hot" water we get from normal faucet isn't actually hot, it's only slightly above human body temperature... Surface temperature of a normal PC can be 50% more than of "hot" water...

Fun fact is that you can actually "burn" your hand by touching bare skin of a cat, as body temperature of a cat is very close to or above temperature of "hot" water from faucet.

Lol I don't think that is accurate...

My father is plumber so the data is pretty much accurate... Hot water should be 50-65 degrees centigrade before the faucet and normal faucets have limiter that doesn't allow hotter than 40 degrees centigrade. Normal cat body temperature is about 38 degrees centigrade.
