MODERATORS
you know they're used as a cutting tool
Finally! I read about diamond thermal paste and heat spreaders 20 years ago.
Finding a highly abundant material that cools better would be a smarter solution.
It's not as if they're using diamonds hand-mined by children in Africa or something... That's the jewelry market. Synthetic diamond is in a ton of stuff, and it's not really that expensive. The "material" is just carbon.
