If you've ever posted something you've made online, there's a high chance it's on Pinterest. I uploaded some art I made to Reddit, two weeks later I found it on Pinterest, where the image was hosted on some Turkish site.

Sounds exactly like HP.

This was in Norway! I was fucking flabbergasted when it happened!

The story about my personal laptop was in Australia.

I used to work in a large oil company for a decade. Around 2018, everyone got new HP laptops with touch screen. We're talking 20.000 permanent employees, and more than 40.000 externals (externals did not get a laptop). After a couple of weeks, people started complaining about the fan making a lot of noise.

After HP checked the laptops, it turned out that the fan was not powerful enough. Their solution? Limit the CPU speed. And my company just agreed. Fuck that noise!!!

I already started boicotting them in 2009, when i purchased a computer, which had an S-video. But it didn't work. Went to the store that sold it, they told me to contact HP. I did, and they just told me that it was a error on the entire laptop series, and that I should've known about it before I purchased the laptop.

Go fuck yourself, HP!

How in the fuck is HP still alive? The company should crash and burn.

Pay $5 to send 50 messages per month. Then an additional $1 for every fifth message.

Interesting. Well, I can confirm that my cats drink water, and a lot of it! One is nearly 13, the other 4, and they both drink multiple times per day.

Really? I give my cats dry food, but there's no grain in it, all meat. Expensive, but worth it!

My bad. And thanks for the response! I honestly believe Arcane has no right to be as good as it is when it's "based" on a game like LoL lol 😝

Oh, sure, but considering Arcane, it could've been named something else, and thus have no connection to LoL. But damn, the series is great!

 

So I'm completely oblivious about League of Legends, except that I know it's a tower defense game. I've never played it myself, but I am an old gamer in my late 30's.

My wife and I started watching Arcane today, and watched two episodes. God damn, I'm hooked!! Being a grown up, we had to stop, as we have work, and can't wait to watch more this weekend. But I just can't imagine how this world is inspired by LoL. Can someone explain if there actually is a story in LoL?
