Thickeners for cream pies
  • Agar is only going to work if you heat it. Xanthan gum might be the best alternative here that requires no heating. It'll certainly make it more viscous, but might result in a less than appealing texture. I'd experiment with maybe heating a xanthan gum and agar mix, then removing from heat and stirring in the yogurt. I dunno, requires playing around depending on desired results.

  • We might need to add some more logic to the recommendation algorithm
  • https://github.com/jellyfin/jellyfin/blob/31aa44d23d12b5dbb5f9a131242cc82c9ef98f24/Emby.Server.Implementations/Data/SqliteItemRepository.cs#L2279 is what's discovering similar content. If the InheritedParentalRatingValue is considered zero, it's only going to match other content with the same value. Can you elaborate on "I did change the name of the key for the rating variable in the metadata to be ‘MPAA rating’ instead of the default which I think was ‘rating’ before since I found it confusing."? I suspect we're zeroing (ha ha) in on the problem.

  • We might need to add some more logic to the recommendation algorithm
  • Hey, I've worked in the recommendations/similarity calculations. Could you post a screenshot of the detail page for Inside Out? I suspect your media doesn't have associated metadata (e.g. tmdb tags) that are used to power similarity calculations.

  • How far can a vegan character get in Stardew Valley?
  • I've given thought to this one as a vegan in the game industry. It's strange. I'm happy to play games like Cyberpunk and murder just about everyone in my way. But when it comes to cozy games, there's something discordant about the "build a happy little farm" vibe and "kill all the fish you want". It just doesn't match the fantasy cottagecore games are selling for me. :shrug:

  • The wild successes of Helldivers 2 and Baldur's Gate 3 send a clear message: Let devs cook
  • I suspect the difficulty the publishers face is that fun is difficult to quantify. The read on this might end up being "All things being equal, DRM/MTX/etc aren't statistically impediments to financial success if the game is going to sell well anyway. If we percieve them to improve our bottom line, let's include them".

  • Libs and NDPers must act boldly by reviving electoral reform
  • A little more subtle than that. The ERRE came back with a report (https://www.ourcommons.ca/Content/Committee/421/ERRE/Reports/RP8655791/errerp03/errerp03-e.pdf) whose #1 recommendation was adopting any system that's roughly proportional (e.g. MMP, STV, etc).

    The Committee recommends that the Government should, as it develops a new electoral system, use the Gallagher index in order to minimize the level of distortion between the popular will of the electorate and the resultant seat allocations in Parliament. The government should seek to design a system that achieves a Gallagher score of 5 or less.

    But instead of moving forward with a proportional system (which would impact the number of seats the liberals win by way of voters voting strategically for the Liberals), they instead released My democracy.ca. A push poll if there ever was one.

  • Steam Deck now has thousands more games than the Nintendo Switch
  • I have a Switch but have bought maybe 3 games for it tops. Where Steam has user reviews, a super simple refund policy, and frequent deep discounts, Nintendo's purchasing experience is clearly lacking in a customer-friendly approach.

    Anyone asking for recommendations for their next gaming device, it's Steam Deck every time.

  • Multi community feedback

    I'm new to Summit, but not new to Lemmy. In other clients, I've subscribed to several clusters of communities. I'd love to be able to group them into multi-communities in Summit.

    Desired behaviour: That the "Create Multi Community" page show you communities you've subscribed to that aren't yet in any multi community.

    Desired behaviour: That searching for communities in the "Create Multi Community page" indicate which of the search results you're already subscribed to.

    SD prompt: "Tim Curry as a Muppet"

    Ended up with a felt version of John Carpenter's Thing.

    PSA: Dont forget to avoid round avacados

    When picking avacados to buy, aim for the ones that are longer than they are round. If it's as round as an orange, you're going to get this kind of all-pit bullshit.
