Notes

gollark: I've read about something like that being used for some sort of photosensitive 3D printing thingy?
gollark: I guess if you just want one color (UV) there are probably UV-transparent LCD panels.
gollark: I mean, you could stick UV LEDs and a diffuser thing in place of the screen, but then it can't display anything.
gollark: I don't think it would be practical to make it still phoneish.
gollark: > Chemotherapy is in simple terms killing cancer with radiation<@224206995257950220> No, that would be radiotherapy.
