Jesse Grosjean (Hog Bay Software)’s text affinity feature has some interesting ideas on selecting and editing text less painful. I always meant to go try Bike but I never did!

The RCV proposition in Arizona was terrible.

It allowed lawmakers to change the number of candidates who advance to the Ranked Choice Voting stage every six years, which means they could literally force it down to two candidates anyway.

Even better, if lawmakers can’t agree on the number of advancing candidates by a deadline, the Secretary of State just gets to choose it by themselves with no oversight.

Ooh, just right after I filtered all those sites out in my alternative search engine. Sorry Google, almost had me!

Hmm, sounds like an experience gift would go over well! I’m in the US but some cool stuff you could try giving him gift cards or tickets to?

  • Waverider, which is sort of like surfing but you don’t have to go to the beach
  • Renting an ATV for few hours to drive out on a trail
  • One of those BMX tracks for bikes instead of motorcycles
  • Indoor skydiving Sorry if none of these are under budget, I haven’t done any of these in forever so couldn’t tell you what the price is.

I unsubscribed from all my newsletters and subscribed to them through RSS where I could. That way I don’t have to be bothered unless i specifically want to read any updates!

I went to a Regal Cinema for the first time a few months ago and they played 20 minutes of ads that began at the advertised movie start times. Insane.
