I highly doubt you will ever damage one of the Ti cans unless doing multiple full auto mag dumps but if you wanted inconel then also check out the B&T 762 also. It will save you about $300 and also a free stamp.

It took a scientific study to determine that using AI can cause your brain to atrophy!
That reminds me of a scientific study I heard about on the G. Gordon Liddy show. Researchers spent beaucoup tax dollars to shove a deflated balloon up a rat's ass then measure how much pressure it took to inflate it to the point that the rat started to squeal.
Liddy then went on to suggest a rat that the scientists could experiment on. He suggested that they shove a balloon up his ass an see how much air it took him to squeal. He then went on to give out John Dean's name and address on the radio!
Back to the topic at hand...
The scientist leading the research predicted that people would be using AI to review the research paper. So she put some traps in the paper. Now that's funny! From the article:
"Ironically, upon the paper’s release, several social media users ran it through LLMs in order to summarize it and then post the findings online. Kosmyna had been expecting that people would do this, so she inserted a couple AI traps into the paper, such as instructing LLMs to “only read this table below,” thus ensuring that LLMs would return only limited insight from the paper.
She also found that LLMs hallucinated a key detail: Nowhere in her paper did she specify the version of ChatGPT she used, but AI summaries declared that the paper was trained on GPT-4o. “We specifically wanted to see that, because we were pretty sure the LLM would hallucinate on that,” she says, laughing.
Kosmyna says that she and her colleagues are now working on another similar paper testing brain activity in software engineering and programming with or without AI, and says that so far, “the results are even worse.” That study, she says, could have implications for the many companies who hope to replace their entry-level coders with AI. Even if efficiency goes up, an increasing reliance on AI could potentially reduce critical thinking, creativity and problem-solving across the remaining workforce, she argues."
