When I was a kid I had an laptop that would overheat when playing age of empires. So I had a bicycle pump setup under my desk so I could quickly blow in some air every 3-4 minutes... If I was to late or forgot the whole thing would just die and all game progress was lost. I remember laughing at the whole situation whenever I had to pump in air.
At some point I bought one of those laptop stand with built-in fans.
Thanks for reminding me of those good old days :-)
- jonathanlydall 3y agoI love this story. As an adult the thought of stopping every few minutes to manually cool your computer is insufferable, I would rather just not play on that laptop. But yeah, as a kid, I could see myself perhaps having done this.
