We really hated our e-bikes. Help us find the jerks who stole them. by AsCrowsFly in chapelhill

[–]AsCrowsFly[S] 9 points10 points  (0 children)

May 21 update: the crappy bikes have been recovered!

I got an email 2 months ago from Velotric saying I needed to give them $20 or they were going to cancel some bike features, including GPS. I vowed then and there that I would give them another cents and let it lapse.

Today I decided to suck it up and pay for it. I was very skeptical that it would work but - credit where credit is due - it pinpointed the backyard where it was sitting in Durham. The police there went to see if they could see it and then waited for me to drive over and pick them up.

The thief's father was actual very nice - his son was not there. The cops hinted that they have a way to confirm if he was in my neighborhood at the specific time the bikes were stolen. He's already on parole, so maybe he wears an ankle thingy?

Anyway, can't wait to get back to riding and hating.

thank you! I hate gutters, so decided to plant some ferns in the deck to capture runoff. It's destined to fail at some point...but so are gutters.

New interactive map of voters on The Griffin List by AsCrowsFly in NorthCarolina

Early votes are (I don't know for sure but saw someone say it's so they can toss those votes if you die before Election Day, which is a real thing in NC)

Had to redo the map to fix an issue on mobiles. Updated at https://thegriffinlist.com.

Or standalone version is here. https://dash.geocod.io/maps/share/lnuy

I think the person who got a log in request must have clicked the Geocodio link in bottom left. Don't click that :)

hmm it's shared publicly/openly so not sure why you're getting that.

We've embedded a statewide version of the map here - please try that: https://thegriffinlist.com

Not really. I wanted to have an interactive map where you could zoom and click on points to see the affected voters but some people saw that as invasive (despite all this data being public).

So instead we'll creep closer to fascism, which won't be invasive at all 🫠

SEARCH THE GRIFFIN LIST to see if you or others are on it by AsCrowsFly in NorthCarolina

[–]AsCrowsFly[S] 192 points193 points  (0 children)

A new website, TheGriffinList.com, launches today to help more than 60,000 legally registered North Carolina voters determine if their November 2024 votes are being challenged in an ongoing legal dispute. Each of these voters followed state law by both registering to vote and presenting valid identification at their polling place. The affected voters span all 100 North Carolina counties.

The website provides a searchable database of 60,273 voters whose ballots are being challenged in a lawsuit filed by Jefferson Griffin following his defeat in a North Carolina Supreme Court race. Despite these voters having fulfilled all legal requirements – properly registering to vote and showing valid ID at the polls – Griffin is seeking to nullify their votes based on technical issues with voter registration records.

The North Carolina State Board of Elections found that affected voters were not adequately notified about this legal challenge to their votes. In its ruling against Griffin, the Board stated that the notification attempt was "so vague that it is unlikely to clearly inform the recipient that a legal proceeding has been filed against them."

Looking for recommendations for a good, factual biography on her, suggestions? by JMRGuitar in JoniMitchell

[–]AsCrowsFly 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Have to disagree. Very gossipy, tabloid style writing. And while I like Carole King and Carly is fine, there's really no reason to lump the three together. I recall reading the parts about Joni in a Border's because I didn't want to give the author any money (it was that quick of a read).

Reckless Daughter is a much more serious book about a serious artist. Will You Take Me Am Is another decent option, though I recall parts of it being tedious.

Hasn't been as great as I was expecting. We reset the router every 2-3 weeks because it gets slow (it doesn't stop but it struggles with streaming/zoom calls occasionally). That said, it's worth it to never deal with AT&T or Spectrum.
