I'd think they could have washed away the urine -- but then, I never tried peeing on a computer. :laugh:

Tbf it's just the american way, it's it's broke don't repair it just chuck it out and get a new one.

Worked well in WW2, now-a-days it's an old stupid and very outdated system.

They're beat up old MacBooks, probably costs more to fix than they are worth, pitch em and get new ones

He was trying to cool them down, see they were overheating and he heard the news that google's servers at one of thier datacenters used **** water to cool the servers... so he thought he would be very helpful and cool them down in an eco friendly way.

My theory is some teacher "accidentally" dropped the laptop trolley down some stairs, and then got little Charlie in his class to pee on them to cover it up. Both have unlocked an achievement.

Though you may find some health and safety hygiene rule says that they must all be disposed of, even if they do still work.

    • Wow, imagine you dump hundreds of hours into completing things and unlocking stuff and you lose it all. Back in the day when cheats were built into games, you could at least unlock things again that way without spending hundreds of hours again. But those days are long gone for some reason as no one builds cheats into games anymore. So it's even more painful that studio that's on its 6th installment **** it up so badly.
    • Spotify finally removes the disco ball app icon in the latest update by Ivan Jenic Image: Spotify Spotify has just released an update that removes its now infamous disco ball icon. The update reverts the app icon to the familiar flat green logo after weeks of mixed reactions online. The icon arrived on May 13 as part of the company's 20th anniversary celebration and was always intended to be temporary, though Spotify only confirmed that after the backlash started. The disco ball took the internet by storm, as the reception was split. A vocal group of users called it ugly and disorienting, with some iOS users noting that the 3D glowing effect made the app look like it was stuck mid-update. On the other end, the icon picked up a following of its own. Its retro, three-dimensional look immediately stood out against the flat, minimalist aesthetic that has dominated app design for years. It even started a small movement, spawning what people started calling "discomorphism," a mashup of disco and skeuomorphism. Other brands started posting disco ball versions of their own logos, probably in an effort to ride the wave of memes that flooded the internet during late May. Spotify has had a turbulent relationship with its user base lately. Besides the disco ball icon, which certainly wasn't appreciated by everyone, the company has also received backlash for its willingness to include AI-generated music on its platform. On May 17, Spotify promised the old icon would return “in a few weeks.” And now it looks like that time has finally arrived. So, whether you liked the disco ball or it made you uncomfortable, it’s now gone for good. The next time you update the Spotify app on your phone, the old, flat-design icon will return.
