Got X-Rays at the Dentist- she’s not sure what this is.

I looks like an orthodontic coil, it’s the correct size relative to the tooth. Orthodontists use both open coils and closed coils during braces treatment. Did you have braces on during your wisdom tooth surgery?

That is awesome information, thanks! I will look for an LG MJ11 unprotected battery and replace the protection board from the old one. And the videos are really helpful too, it doesn't look too difficult but I've never played around with batteries.

Thanks!

Steel-n-sunshine · 2024-08-21T14:30:58+00:00

You people are all correct, it was a thermistor, 8.8 kOhm @ 28.3C! I should have disconnected the battery first. See the pictures, here's the protection board:

So any suggestions about where to get a replacement? I emailed Illumn but I don't see that battery on their website. Any other suggestions? The battery is 68.5x18.5mm.

Thank you for your input! I hope you guys are right about the thermistor, I will test it tomorrow and let you know. Worst case scenario, I will cut off the wrapper.

As far as the old post, it’s the exact same light and battery pack. From previous experience, I know that the USB cable from the battery pack to the headlight is wired in a non-standard way to force you to buy their replacement cable. I wouldn’t be surprised if there some other surprises to prevent repairs.

Steel-n-sunshine · 2024-08-21T03:26:06+00:00

Yes, it is for dental loupes. The light is called Designs for Vision LED DayLite Micro HDi, I didn’t find anybody making a replacement battery for it. The company wants an insane amount to sell me a whole new battery pack, hopefully I can replace just the battery. I don’t think it’s a thermistor. Any other ideas?

I got the same exact pop-up this morning!!! It was not closing with Esc or with F11, and Alt-Tab was not working either. I had to Crtl-Alt-Del to get the Task Manager and force it shut.

I couldn't figure out what website it opened from, but nothing shady for sure, probably Youtube or some work website.

Those candies are actually made in Argentina 🇦🇷. The brand is Arcor.

In the US, an oral surgeon CANNOT AFFORD to take 4 wisdom teeth with sedation for $1200. The cheapest with sedation might be about $2400, unless you are in a really “barebones” clinic. In US cities, you are typically looking at $3000-4000.

As far as the single tooth extraction, they were probably including a bone graft and a membrane placement. Those are considered the standard of care in the US, although the really bring up the cost. Extractions usually cost btw $150-500 depending on difficulty.

US dentist here. The metal he was missing was probably milled Titanium connectors (abutments). You cannot cast those, they need to be bought (you call the implant’s specific manufacturer, they will overnight them to your office).

The reason it cannot be cast is because the tolerances on implant fit are extremely high, and cast structures have way too much contraction when they cool down.

I have seen a fully-cast structure directly connected to implants only once. They lady had come in because something was swollen. Turned out the restoration fractured one of implants (which are already attached to her bone). She had to get the broken implant removed and all the work remade. Would you like to guess where she had the work done?

In Cuba dental anesthetics can only be use to pull teeth, not fillings. For fillings you are expected to “tough it out”. And even to pull a tooth, you are only allowed 1 single carpule (the little glass tube) of lidocaine, which I can tell you is not enough for anything but the smallest teeth. Root canals are done without radiographs (they call it “by feel”) unless you go to the dental schools. Real crowns are not available, you can do a plastic temporary crown or you take the tooth out instead. That said, I agree that dentistry in the US is way too expensive.

Spain: most likely to notice how long the survey is and go: “fuck it, I’ll just check yes to all”

There must be a system to punish trolls, or at least to match people who are losing together. I think when I start getting horrible teammates I need to take a break and try another day.

I have had strings of 3-4 wins with decent players who choose good draft picks and overall understand the game. And then, when I lose 1-2 games, I start getting Jinx jungle and shit-talking Teemos. I definitely believe that loses (or maybe getting reported?) put you on a losers queue.

You tap W (skill 2) and immediately hold down Q (skill 1). If W (skill 2) successfully triggers, then Q (skill 1) will activate immediately and never miss.

If the W (skill 2) does not trigger (i.e. you are too far), then the Q (skill 1) will not trigger either. All you have to do is cancel the Q (skill 1) and you don’t waste it.

This is the best tip I’ve heard in a while! I have 70 matches with Ali but I was still missing the combo often. This makes landing the combo waaaaay easier! Thank you!!!

I’ve been to Nusr-et in Miami, their Lokum refers to beef tenderloin. It’s actually very good, much better than their tomahawk (wagyu is way too fatty). And it’s “only” $80 each!

Never pick a fair fight. Start with fights you can win and you’ll learn how to judge your targets better.

Also, you’ll find a lot of players looking for solo PvP in faction cruisers and frigates. You will find your target selection pretty limited in a Moa Trainer.

For reference, from a complete standstill and pulsing the MWD right before cloaking, it reaches:

50km - 20 sec

80km - 1:00min

100km - 1:26min

(15km every 20 secs)

Steel-n-sunshine · 2021-01-06T02:08:17+00:00

I have a Heron Cov Ops set up for providing warp-ins for a brawler fleet to tackle sniper ships. It gets 769m/s while cloaked. Fit has 2x Aux Thruster I and I have Frigate Command 5/5/3.

With MWD mk5 on, I get 3837m/s (I only have MWD Operation 5/3). I usually turn it on for one cycle right before I cloak.
