I rest assured that I'm in the presence of a trustworthy, knowing geek
if I see that their computer(s) are not closed up in cases but instead
their components are open and exposed to the fresh air, and if
some of the dangling components are held back with duct tape.

Outdoors, duct tape gum gets hard and flakes away.
