  • I have a currently-apart T3200SX (+scraps of another that I took the screen from).

    The red gas plasma screen is interesting, I couldn’t figure out how to install DOS on it and I don’t think I could cobble enough memory for other options. The timechip was bad too (not sure if that was preventing DOS or if I did something else wrong), I bought another but it was DOA too.

    The HDDs I think were bad too, and this model was locked into using some proprietary drive. (probably could be bypassed for a newer drive, not sure)



  • Nintendo.

    Not just crushing fan games, but also issues with the Smash bros community, pricing and availability, eshops shutting down (+needing to buy those games again on new consoles or it’s not even available at start), stick drift, fan content policy, also Youtube strikes/claims (both newer for specific reasons and an entire era for let’s plays in general). 20 years of content removed from Gmod.

    And no this isn’t about Japanese law, they choose to be this way.

    For actual specifics (and more issues) 2 videos: UKD_wnB9AMU and xgKY9hmbfgo

    I mean you can buy it here in a normal store. So I’m not sure if you mean a dentist can’t use/provide it, or if you’re thinking about the nano forms of it.

    Edit, just saw this:

    the FDA regulates dental products like toothpaste as cosmetics rather than therapeutic agents for cavity prevention

    Interestingly, many ingredients used in dental care, including fluoride, are employed off-label. This means they are used in ways not officially approved by the FDA but are still considered effective based on scientific evidence and clinical practice

    It could likely be replaced with hydroxyapatite instead (it also can be used to remove lead and other things from water, which makes searching about being added to municipal water difficult). Good for not only teeth, also bones.

    I also wonder if adding other vitamins would make more sense (just enough to stop deficiencies) if we’re talking about health outcomes, though the first idea I had with vitamin C came up with results of that messing with the chlorine in the water.
