 What makes me think the most the reports are bogus in my case is the
 actual hardware doesn't give a damn:
 
 - When temperature really starts to get hot, fans start spinning faster
   and louder. much louder.
 
 - But when powerd reports critical temperature, the fans keep running at
   minimal speed.
