There are three, I think VIA still has a foot in the game. There were quite a few companies that clean roomed, licensed or extended the x86 platform back in the day. My first machine had a NEC V20 in it and I had 386 machines with AMD, Centaur, and VIA chips…

You sometimes have to be careful with corn… I picked up some cheap bird food with corn in it, the squirrels got into it and buried kernels all around the yard. My wife just about went crazy yanking corn sprouts out of our and the neighbors yard! 😄

i'm 40 years old and just had ALL my teeth extracted in one go. The pain is excruciating. Any tips for pain relief? in c/[email protected]

Have you contacted your dentist to see if they will prescribe you something for pain? I had a wisdom tooth pulled yesterday (in the United States) and had the ability to request a pain medication if I needed it.

The handout I was given recommended 500 mg of acetaminophen then three hours later 600 mg of ibuprofen, repeating that throughout day. The last dose of the day (before bed?) taking both 500 mg of acetaminophen and 600 mg of ibuprofen and six hours later start alternating again. You can give this a try but, I am just describing what I was given.

I hope this helps, good luck, and feel better soon.

Word of warning. Novalgin (Dipyrone/metamizole) will completely fuck your white blood cells.
