  • Imperial is definitely worse, but the number of teaspoons or tablespoons to a cup (48 and 16) is useless information. Do you measure out 50 grams one gram at a time? Do you regularly use the fact that a kilometer is 100,000 cm?

  • Mechanical Musical Keyboard?
  • I'm a pianist, and pianists are often very particular about how musical keyboards feel. There doesn't appear to be a very large DIY community around it. Getting a digital keyboard to feel good has a lot of elements. It seems that it's very expensive to design and manufacture a music keyboard, let alone to do it modularly as the keyboard community has. I would expect it to require a lot of compromises that I wouldn't be willing to deal with except as a hobby project.

    Synths, on the other hand, have a HUGE DIY community and that sometimes extends to making keyboards. But for me, it rarely seems worth it to fabricate a keyboard when a MIDI controller with MIDI cables or MIDI over USB can be had as cheaply as $50 or to have a really well done one for under $150.

    I'd be more interested in modding an existing keyboard than I would creating my own from scratch.

    I found this list of links related to diy instrument and synth making in case you're interested. https://sdiy.info/wiki/Online_resources

    This is such a niche topic that you should probably seek out a traditional forum. Also, check out Look Mum No Computer for some inspiration.

  • Android users who don't use the stock launcher - what launcher do you use, and what do you like about it?
  • Current user of Niagara here, it's just a unique option. You have favorites on a scrollable list (one app per line) and then you can scroll down an alphabetical list of all apps by letter on the side. Plus the optional subscription is $5 a year, which is actually reasonable in my opinion.

  • Period tracking app options?
  • Police prefer that criminal cases are resolved by compelling a confession. If a woman is told by the police they have her period data, most people would crack in that situation. Whether it holds up in court is mostly irrelevant.

    It should go without saying, but never talk to police and if you're being interviewed, insist on invoking your 6th amendment right to an attorney and your 5th amendment right to remain silent. And don't engage with anything the police say.

  • So why is .ml TLD going back to Mali taking everyone by surprise?
  • From the context of the other two paragraphs, you can narrow down what I meant. Stripped of context it is general, yes.

    Not all country code top level domains were free, just a select few. And not everyone used free TLDs, just people with tight budgets who weren't expecting to make money on their sites, as well as scammers and people who wanted to stay anonymous for other reasons.

  • Grind size/ratio adjustments for small dose pour overs?

    I made a pourover with a v60 today with only 10g of coffee and a 1:15 ratio. It was the same grind size, ratio, and roast as a coffee I made a few days prior, but that one was 20g of coffee. The larger pour over I felt was balanced, having some fruity and manageable acid flavor, but this one was sour and a little bitter (which would indicate over-extracted?). And at one point, the flow slowed to a crawl and I just stopped letting it drip at about 15g water left in the cone.

    Does anyone have advice for smaller dose pour overs? How should I adjust the grind size and/or ratio compared to a more standard, larger dose pour?
