- A heated debate erupted over the ethics and feasibility of “reversing” gender dysphoria with neural interventions; participants argued that current science is far from offering reversible brain-level fixes and that such research would be politically and ethically fraught.  
- Llamamoe summarized emerging evidence that gender dysphoria has identifiable neurological correlates and criticized the linked “bitcheese.net” page as scientifically uninformed and transphobic, while others defended the page as parody or free-speech commentary.  
- Discussion highlighted the tension between open scientific inquiry and social controversy, noting that funding for any attempt to “cure” transgender identity is unlikely and would face intense backlash similar to past autism-cure debates.  
- muurkha redirected the channel toward technical substance by presenting a 2013 Sadoway paper (10.1038/nature12134) on 90 % Cr / 10 % Fe anodes for molten-oxide electrolysis of iron, emphasizing their high-temperature stability and potential for in-situ resource utilization (ISRU) on other planets.  
- kanzure shared a link to an “electromagnetic health stimulation” article that was quickly dismissed as pseudoscience; superkuh pointed out errors about Tesla’s photos, brainwave entrainment claims, and misuse of soliton theory, labeling the piece “100 % crackpot.”  
- L29Ah and superkuh explored using an RTL-SDR plus FL2K dongle for HF amplitude-modulated transmission via an “ampliphase” technique, noting practical limits on phase-shift resolution and available sample rates for meaningful audio output.
