aren't prion diseases usually just a thing for the brain? though I haven't considered the medication aspect... I want to eat a human heart some day, any other things I'd need to consider? I guess I'll just take the risk with the medications.
I commented this on another post already but I think it's relevant here too (about diy mtf HRT, originally commented under someone saying they can't do HRT):
you can easily start diy anywhere in the world right now as long as you can get your hands on some crypto (the only good use for crypto). there are many resources on how to safely do DIY hrt, which sellers are safe and that pros and cons of different medications. the risks or diy are vastly overstated. depending on what doctor you would get when going the official route it could even be safer (I've heard many stories about horrible doctors, and experienced them myself too).
I personally would recommend injections from home brewers. that is, people who buy raw estrogen in bulk and sell it as vials to inject. there is a website that tests their products in actual laboratories and publishes their findings to make sure trans people don't inject dangerous stuff https://transharmreduction.org/hrt-testing
you should educate yourself thoroughly about how HRT works, even and especially if you go the official route. you need to be knowledgeable and confident enough to recognize if a doctor is fucking you over and to do something against it. I'm not saying all doctors are evil, I'm saying you shouldn't blindly trust them. do your own research, and if what they do seems to go against that then demand an explanation. it's possible there's a good reason, or maybe they just have no clue how to treat trans people (like what I have experienced)
in the end it is your body and it is your responsibility to take care of it. yes there are risks to diy hrt, there are also risks to official HRT and there are also risks to no HRT. only you can decide what the right choice is for you. if you want more advice feel free to pm me on Lemmy or on discord. my discord username is

I'm pretty sure everyone in this thread agrees that hacking a neuralink is bad. they're saying it's made by Tesla so they don't trust it out of fear if being hacked and that that is a bad thing. not sure where you disagree with these people.
yea I know, I've seen you around a few times. I saw you like Factorio so I feel like Gregtech might be something for you as well. it's really difficult from what I've heard tho. maybe there's other versions of it that aren't so hard. it's really an amazing coincidence that you got that name with that url, people always meme about Greg and Gregtech on the modded Minecraft memes subreddit.
