I'm not vegan, because I keep backsliding on cheese. And I don't really like vegan cheeses, because they seem mostly tasteless and, well, sort of cardboard-y. And also they don't seem to have much nutrients in them. Certainly hardly any protein.

Is there a vegan cheese, or equivalent, that has a reasonable amount of protein?

Thanks!

This is partly a real question, and partly rhetorical. And also to save my sanity, because whenever some stupid comment of hers is aired on the radio news, she drives me frantic. Her asinine stupidity, her whinging voice, her deplorably bad English, and her complete and utter lack of understanding of anything at all, has me shouting at the radio in fury, trying to drown out her bleating. Never before has a public figure from any side of politics has had such a visceral effect on me. I wish she'd just go away.

And of course I'm terrified that PHON will gain seats at the upcoming Vic state election. They deserve less than none.

I have the lowest opinion possible of her, her party members, and her followers.

I seem only to drink my protein powder in a shake, with oat milk, berries and banana. Rather than spending big on whizz-bang protein powders, can I get the same nutritional benefits by using protein heavy nuts and seeds instead? Hemp seeds, chia seeds, etc. Any nice recipes?

Thanks!

Just now, Parkville.

(I'm aware this question - or something similar - has been asked before. But anyway, here's my version.)

I've been working my way through a large container of Raw Paleo Protein ( vanilla ) which on its own tastes like melted ice-cream; sickly sweet. It's ok in a smoothie with berries, banana, and a bit of oat milk. Still too sweet for my likes though. Natures Way protein is better, but I can only find the packets - the 750g containers seem to have disappeared. My dietitian recommends Bare Blends; she also claims that Coles PerForm is OK, but its not vegan.

Are there any vegan protein powders which are (a) complete, (b) not sickly sweet, (c) easily available, (d) not wildly expensive?

Thanks!

This has been discussed before, and I hope it will be again. Anyway, I was just listening to this while driving, and as always I was staggered and impressed. It's such a mammoth work - it may be short in duration, but utterly huge in its ideas. And so astonishingly organic; more than any other symphony I know, it seems to grow with unremitting inexorability from start to end. It's the sort of work which makes me feel small and insignificant. (Which I am, of course).

The final resolution of the strings, painfully struggling to travel from B to C out of the preceding hugeness (which seem trying to pull them back in) strikes me like a faint ray of sunlight battling against titanic forces through storm clouds.

This symphony surely is one of the most remarkable and the most original in the repertoire. I can't think of another anything like it.

(Some of Havergal Brian's late symphonies are in one movement, but none of them seem to me to have the tightness and the strength of Sibelius.)

This is a truly great work.

I was on a tram on the number 19 route this evening, travelling towards the city, when the tram I was on broke down outside Bunnings, Brunswick. The passengers were told to get off. As I live in Parkville not far from Melbourne Uni I had a nice 30 minute walk on a mild night. (By the time I got home the tram still hadn't passed me. As far as I know it might be there still.)

But what should other people have done? Take an uber (which might be seen as expensive for some)? Wait until the tram gets working again?

Apparently the trick is to load the ipympl package, and then in Jupyter Lab enter the magic command

%matplotlib widget

and then include your code for points to be added. But when I do this, all that happens is a notice:

Loading widget...

and then nothing. How can I obtain an animated plot in Jupyter Lab? Note that I'm looking possibly at several million points, the idea is that as more points are plotted a shape starts to materialize.

FWIW:

Python 3.14.5
Jupyter and all its packages have been updated

Thanks!

I've been creating 3d diagrams and figures, and viewing them in Vivaldi. This has been working without issue, until now, when I'm getting - instead of the figure - text saying

WebGL is not supported 
by your browser - visit
https://get.webgl.org
for more info

As far as I know, nothing has changed on my system - there have been no updates or upgrades, automatic or otherwise (I'm running Arch Linux). The only change is that for some reason, Vivaldi doesn't want to play with WebGL.

This is a Vivaldi issue, and not a hardware or system issue: WebGL works in other browsers.

Any ideas on how I can get WebGL "back" as it were? Thanks!

On my android phone, google sheets shows a pound symbol £ for currency, and I can't find any way of changing it. Formatting cells only gives the option of choosing currency or not (the symbol for this is the pound symbol). The only sheet settings I can find allow me to change the privacy settings. My phone settings have my region set as Australia (which is correct), for which the currency symbol is the dollar.

Is there any way I can have currency cells in my google sheets show the dollar symbol?

Thanks!

There are of course the great Bach sonatas, but I was wondering if there are any similar duets for the instruments (that is, where the harpsichord has an equal role, not just an accompaniment), but which are easier than Bach, and more within the reach of amateur players? Thanks!
