A pointlessly fancy router, at a correspondingly ridiculous price*.
* = if you'd have told 20 year old me that someday I'd be able to buy a 1 GB/s router for only $170 which, oh by the way, doesn't require wires, I'd have though you were an idiot or a troll. I paid a lot more than that for my first Ethernet card, which was 10 Mb/s over 50 ohm coax. And that was in the mid 90s, when money was worth something and I was making minimum wage.

The reason behind that is the unfounded fear of cold almost all Turks have.
Cold is the source of all evil.
Also, most people refuse to drink their beverages cold...
A cold beverage will rip your throat away and leave you mortally sick.
Every food and beverage establishment keep most of their beverage stock un-refrigerated.
People order a beverage and just add "not from the fridge".

The crazy Canadian eating ice cubes was a source of much confusion.
My Chinese co-worker also reports her grandparents telling her that's exactly how you catch a cold, drinking cold drinks lol
