I added ratgdo to my HomeAssistant and have HomeAssisteant send notifications if the garage door is open (with a button that closes it)

Some, but sarcopenia caused by rapid weight loss is a well known phenomenon. I think the tie to ozempic is a little overblown, but is is a real issue.

In a “traditional” weight loss strategy, you paired calorie deficit with an increase in physical activity (cardio, resistance training, etc). This increased physical activity helped protect you from muscle loss (your body tended to recognize that muscle was important so it burned fat at a higher rate)

With ozempic, people can lose weight without changing their sedentary lifestyle. Since your muscles are not needed, your body is free to grab energy from wherever it can. In some studies, almost half of weight loss can come from lean tissue.

Is it better to for an obese person to lose weight vs not lose weight? Absolutely. But it would be even better if they also changed their lifestyle to protect their muscle mass.

This doesn’t use multicast. Using multicast is essentially impossible unless you are the ISP or you just want to run it on LAN.

I don’t think Netflix has a fast lane anywhere.

Netflix does offer to give servers to ISPs to put in their datacenters. So if your ISP is seeing congestion on the IX links, it is entirely possible that Netflix still works fine (because the traffic doesn’t leave the ISP and is therefore not hitting the congestion). But that is not a “fast lane”

But it is apples fault that they let the alternatives stagnate and refuse (until recently) things like RCS that would make SMS suck less.

It is clear that Apple considers iMessage a significant network effect and is not interested in having feature parity between iOS and non-iOS
