Would I be speaking out of turn to say that the
whole idea just plain sucks? /s

Seriously, though:  the materials to keep the environment out
of the vacuum vessels are going to be too flimsy for safe lift.
Consider a picture tube of yore:  it does not float, and that's
already pretty flimsy.

BTW, tried Linux 6.14-rc1 a couple of days ago -- couldn't get
an NVIDIA binary blob to build on it, or I'd be running it
now...for Science!
