Just copy/pasting something I wrote in another thread as it applies just as much here. https://lemmy.ca/comment/4835622

Want to sabotage a protest? Encourage advocacy for increasingly tangential issues. Focus splits, folks start disagreeing on new issues, folks start disagreeing on how issues get prioritized, everything falls apart.

Sadly, this doesn't even require a malicious actor encouraging it. Well-meaning folks see a potentially sympathetic audience for their pet issue and boom.

I'll happily debate political beliefs, but not here. In vegan communities, I'm here for the animals and welcome anyone here with similar motivations. Fragmenting the community by requiring increasingly narrow adherence to beliefs X, Y, and Z is not helpful.

I'm actively working on building something for this. In the interim, most phones have something akin to a voice recorder with transcriptions.

Its the same "power corrupts" story again and again. Karina Gould gave an impassioned speech on electoral reform (http://www.ourcommons.ca/DocumentViewer/en/42-1/house/sitting-64/hansard#Int-8963139). But after replacing Maryam Monsef as Minister of Democratic Institutions, her views suddenly became far more simplistic. In a 2017 interview on CBC's Metro Morning, she was asked "Why is it important that people at the very least believe every vote counts?". She replies "Because they do. … We literally count them: 1, 2, 3, 4, up to the majority that wins."

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.

Things that contain six pairs also contain two pairs. :P

You can ignore all games from publishers on Steam. I'd recommend doing this with any publisher with anti-consumer practices.

Until they reach a deal with mobile carriers and start shipping with SIM cards...

Yes, modifying the value is going to break the mappings (see https://github.com/jellyfin/jellyfin/blob/master/Emby.Server.Implementations/Localization/Ratings/us.csv). Anywho, I think we've discovered the root of your problem. How you choose to rectify it I leave to you! Personally, I'd recommend suffixing your filenames with [tmdbid-123456] as per https://jellyfin.org/docs/general/server/media/movies/ and letting themoviedb.org handle it all for you.

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.
