...so how long until the "live rounds incident" happens? We all know it's coming at this point, it's just a matter of if it occurs before the year is out or not.

As an aside, I love that I told my doctor I likely have Klinfelters syndrome in a note and that we should look into it for a better HRT regime and she completely ignored it. Five years of no boobs later and I stopped taking my testosterone suppressant and suddenly I'm growing boobs.

Good news for transgender people at MIT.

Unlike some prestigious universities, MIT has defied the Trump administration and refused its attempt to pressure the university into banning transgender people from bathrooms.

I don't know but one of my hobbies is trying to erase someone's gender dysphoria without actually transitioning them.
It's a rare ethical situation, because the patient has to really want that, and there has to be some plausibility to doing it.
Last really good success case was an 18-year-old who wanted to be FTM and showed up insisting that I should give them testosterone because they had aw path letter.
They had a BMI of 13.5, they were like 5'8 and 70 something pounds. It was wild. They insisted on being not anorexic. But despite how skinny and tiny this kid was, they had a relatively deep voice for an AFAB and obvious hirsutism.
They were very very mad when I wouldn't write them testosterone right out of the gate, but I had to inform them that they were actively dying, and if I didn't do anything about it they would definitely die. Got some lab testing done and it revealed what I expected. 11 beta hydroxylase deficiency.
Kid had a cortisol of 2 lol.
Treatment of the deficiency resulted in complete resolution of gender dysphoria within 30 days.

I can't remember what the exact calculation I got last night was for if the eGolf had a solid state swap, but I believe it was close to a MK7.5 Golf R in weight. With a better DC charger and a little overvolt on the inverter to push it to 201hp, you'd have yourself a nippy little commuter for $20k

Yaya! I think my love of EVs came from the first gen 500e and the eGolf, but they always had their drawbacks that really prevented me from getting into the feild. But now with the weight savings of solid state and sub 30 minute charge times, I am ALL in.

And if it had the four speed transmission that outputs to a Gilmer belt drive that I'm cooking up for mechanical sound and better launching? With all that sound coming out the back like a cyberpunk esque Porsche with looks to match??

Even if the conversion got to $20,000 all in, it's still worth it

I love how all it took for me to get really into EVs was a $20,000 car that looks kinda funky, has 303mi of range, and can weigh 3,754lbs with a solid state pack.

Like you're telling me I can throw a 406hp 5 N rear motor in the back and get something with the same power to weight as a new M3???

I love how America saw the propaganda we made about the Soviet Union and just decided to do it all to ourselves for real.

As an aside cus I saw that Jake Paul and Mark Cuban partnered with Sora, my assumption if you partner with a video disinformation company to generate licensed content of you, it's because there's a REALLY bad video of you out there that you need to have an excuse to say is fake.

One curious thing on this site about speaking out against the encroachment of LLMs is that inevitably you get accused of being anti-tech. I don’t hate technology. I’ve used machine learning in my own code before. But I also recognize that oligarchs are so hellbent on pushing this tech for a reason.
