It’s so much easier to set up and install than Matrix.

Unbelievably so. Mumble is... basically one setup command. Don't even need a domain. And it needs absolutely no resources, can run on a Pi Zero.
Setting up my own Matrix server was honestly one of the most difficult things I've ever attempted in decades of non-professionally using computers and I'm still not sure I'd be able to properly take care of the installation if it breaks. Sooo many moving parts. All the federation-oriented projects that rely on adoption rates reaaaaally desperately need setup wizards before any other additional feature.

Never forget Stanislav Petrov. In the end it’s a human that needs to press the button, at least for now.

Fair (with a special ominous shoutout to your "at least for now"), but do you think Petrov's or any similar individual person's decision making in this scenario would involve any considerations regarding the size launching nation's or block's arsenal? I.e. "Launch detected from US... hm, better play it safe. Launch detected from France... eh, hit that button!"?
I mean... nuclear threat is nuclear threat. I am not questioning the effectiveness of that threat, I'm questioning the premise of the article.

However, “what really influences Russian decision-making is the scale of US deterrence”, he said.

I find that hard to believe, considering that nuclear weapons have no strategic or tactical military applications whatsoever and only serve as an (effective) PR-campaign for scaring opposing civilian populations.
... does the Russian civilian population have any influence on Russian decision-making? Is there any point in running expensive PR-campaigns against them?

Have started it up as well because I fear like there might not be much time to enjoy its benefits for much longer :(

Looks pretty neat! Too bad there's no standalone installation, only docker.

that it’s an artificially engineered “crisis” by the medical industrial complex to justify modern day discrimination and refuse to provide healthcare to fat people, Black people, etc
podcast episode on this

Thanks! I'm slightly confused by the sources linked in the podcast description though. While it's pretty US-centric they universally seem to confirm that yes, obesity rates are rising and that yes, medical consensus is that obesity is a bad thing. Does the podcast then come to some kind of different conclusion?
I don't have a hard time believing that American companies are profiteering off of sick people, but I feel like there might be some accidental shuffling of cause and effect here. You can fleece and discriminate against a fat person, but in order for that to happen you first need a fat person, don't you?

there’s no obesity epidemic. it’s all eugenics to the core

I'm almost afraid to ask, but what do you mean by that?

These are the people who then say that if you gain weight it is because you are lazy or weak willed.

Whether someone perceives it as hard to lose or not gain weight doesn't really factor into it, does it? For adults the ultimate decision to eat more than one needs lies with exactly one person.

Really it is 99% hormones and only 1% strength of character.

I'm not sure I understand correctly, are you suggesting that obesity epidemics have some kind of shared underlying physiological reason?
