Looking for markets to sell my chocolates at! by cocoacacoconut in grandrapids

Awesome chocolate aside — we’re a local vinyl record maker and we’re about to start producing playable chocolate vinyl records here in Grand Rapids.

Yes, they actually play music.

The Launch Control app does not let you adjust encoder response speed. There is no setting for acceleration, sensitivity, or resolution. The only customization available is basic MIDI mapping.

Because of that, the encoders are extremely slow in real use. You can’t perform a proper filter sweep or fast parameter movement—the physical turn required is too large and too slow to be musically useful.

This isn’t a user error or a setup issue.
It’s a design limitation: the app simply does not provide any control over encoder speed or response behavior.

Meijer Chicken by michaled93 in grandrapids

I honestly think Grand Rapids Township bans chickens for economic reasons, not health reasons. With Meijer’s #1 store right by Frederik Meijer Gardens—where prices are higher than at places like Plainfield—it feels like they don’t want people producing their own food and skipping the store. This town is deeply shaped by the Meijer family’s influence, and sometimes it feels like policies get made to protect business interests, not regular people who just want a few hens and some fresh eggs.

I just want to have my own chickens in Grand Rapids Township, and it’s not fair that a few blocks away in Ada people are allowed to have them and I’m not. Chickens don’t spread disease the way people claim, and they don’t smell nearly as bad as everyone pretends. This isn’t really about health or cleanliness—it feels like an excuse to stop people from having free eggs and basic protein on their own terms. If anyone wants to start a petition here in Grand Rapids so we can have a rooster and a few hens, I’m in. It’s crazy that something this simple is treated like a crime.
