It is currently against guidelines to run that test unless the patient has signs/symptoms suggestive of hypogonadism, and even then, one needs to define total vs. free testosterone, the ratio, and the methodology used, along with LH, FSH, & SHBG to really have the complete picture. Total testosterone doesn't mean much if free testosterone is outside of normal values.
🤷 I got testosterone checked as part of getting medical insurance outside of the US. Complain to them. I got a clean bill of health. The only thing they flagged is my low resting heartrate, which I had to do cardio tests to clear. I passed.
 
Damn, they found my stash of lewd illustrations of Betty Boop!

So are they going to have interns digitizing that for years? So damn much work ahead of them.
I'm guessing this is the super top secret siloed stuff. I doubt much of it will come out. Just crazy that there's almost half a billion papers in a mine somewhere.

edit: I stand corrected by @Sexy Senior Citizen
 

“We really believe that government can have an Apple store-like experience,” he told Baier.
"Beautifully designed, great user experience, modern systems.”
Don't think there's really anything mind blowing in that article, lots of former salt mines and such are used to store documents since they naturally have good climates for preservation. This quote from Elon though is fuckin cringe and reminds me of every Silicon Valley fuck that thinks they're Steve Jobs.

On the one hand government systems should be up to date and convenient, but on the other hand if they are then they'll inevitably abuse the fuck out of it.

doesnt that just mean you need to pay out of pocket?

Ah, outside the US, that explains it. These are just US guidelines. Interesting about the low heart rate. They were likely concerned about heart block or a conductive disorder. Since you passed you must just have naturally efficient cardiomyocytes. That's a big benefit when it comes to exercise.

That's generally for neutral guidelines. Guidelines that advise against something in the US usually means unless you have a good reason you shouldn't do it. This kind of recommendation is usually made when the testing in question will usually lead to false positives requiring further investigation, which can cost the patient unnecessary concern and cost. It's like not doing PSA testing after a certain age. The main reason is the false positive rate is disproportionally high which leads to more testing while providing absolutely no benefit.

In the EU I'd walk everywhere. I've never been sedintary, I just ate a lot. I've been losing 2 pounds a week since January 1st, so I don't know why that fag is complaining about my weight. I am losing weight literally as quickly as it is safe to do.

A low resting heart rate is common among serial killers. How many cows have you sacrificed to the corn, Jersh?

That's all well and good, but what are you doing to maintain that clean bill of health?

Are you exercising? Eating right? Taking your vitamins? Staying hydrated?

Why don't you call more often?

When are you going to give us some grandkids?
 
With all due respect, you are fat. Putting aside what that says about your lifestyle and your values, visceral fat promotes aromatase, which in turn converts androgens into estrogens, which in turn make you think and behave like a woman. You inherently have no idea how badly healthy, high-test men want to murder in service of something they believe in.
They didn't fight when Fauci forced them to quit their jobs and stay home and they didn't fight when their jobs threatened to fire them if they didn't get the covid vaccine. Amerimutts are all pussies who will never kill anyone as long as they have access to goyslop it is clear as day to see and you have to be autistic to think otherwise.
 
Most of Canadas transportation infrastructure is over 60 years old
so before the 1960s were they just fucked?
Between Quebec and Haiti, why is it impossible for France to ever run a successful colony?
Quebec has been doing better than france since the 1970s. its arguably the only place that speaks french that has been doing well the last 50 years. as others have mentioned Quebec has made the rest of canada their bitch, they basically control the rest of the country, its like how all of california is enslaved by San Fran, except without all those worthless immigrants fucking up the city.
'll never understand why Anthony Weiner or Al Franken didn't stick around.
with elected politicans its easy to fuck them over by just not giving them money for re-election, thats how the RNC fucked over candidates trump supported in 2018 and 2020 and 2022
(I am not boot licking)
yes you fucking are, his BMI is over 40
 
Digitize into what format and how do you guarantee those digital files will be readable 100 years from now? I was around when gov't had the bright idea to preserve records forever on CD-R's that had degraded to an unreadable state 10 years later. Paper still has it's place and salt mines are proven as the perfect place to store them long-term. They didn't just decide one day to hide shit in mines for no reason like in Raiders of the Lost Ark.
 
Yup. And they're fucking retarded. I lost my latest account despite staying as uncontroversial as fucking possible because I retweeted some game trailers and steam sale announcements, which look like spam if you're a complete fucking retard (i.e., the average Jeet or AI). Getting anyone to even respond to my support requests is fucking impossible.

The idea that I could move anything else -- video hosting, blogging, email, et cetera -- to X is a fucking joke. Say what you will about Google, when the troons at Google deleted Jordan Peterson's Gmail account out of spite and cope and sneed, that shit got undone real fucking quick and nothing like that has happened since then for their base services. (Youtube being the core exception here.) I wouldn't trust X as it stands to do the same.
Some accounts seem to be protected for lack of a better word. I called Reddit Lies a retard once for falling for a ruse without fact checking and literally not even a second later my account was locked for "suspicious activity."

Don't get me wrong Twitter is better under Elon in that you can shit on troons without getting banned but there's still obvious bullshit going on.

They claim M-DISC can last a thousand years and is writeable by any modern blu-ray writer that supports it (pretty much all of them at this point).

Now of course they haven't been around for 1,000 years, so that endurance is completely theoretical aside from whatever tests they've done they think can simulate the ravages of time.
