@kingrat I can’t wait to never hear about that trial again.

@Gargron If you ever want to hear a good story about social media, there’s a surprising amount of Xooglers/Googlers still very salty about the failure of Google+.

@GossiTheDog Yeah, apparently all of Wawa’s (East Coast US-based convenience store) PoS systems are down right now.

Current view: waiting for an Uber in cold SF

@kingrat Kamala and Tim have been texting me non-stop since the VP announcement.

@kingrat So it’s only Zipcar then?

@kingrat I work a few blocks away south of there, and while there's a homeless shelter on 5th & Bryant, it seems like it's underutilized/understaffed.

So, I guess this makes more sense after today’s latest headline. 👇

Having a real productive day of doing everything but the things I'm supposed to be doing... 😑

Hey #SFBA folks, a quick request… I’m starting to look at housing in the city #SF, and if you have any leads (even if it’s an “I love my neighborhood because…” type of comment) that would be great. 🥰

I don’t need a roommate, but I do need a place that accepts cats and has in unit laundry (which apparently is a very limiting factor). Not sure where to start my search other than the usual online portals.

@killyourfm That looks peaceful.

If Ben and Jen can’t make it work a second time…

…to all of my exes, it’s not gonna work again with any of you either.

@kingrat It's a sad story all around. But they've been found ok and an older man has been arrested in connection.

Apparently, Valerie Bertinelli and the guy behind the (super off putting for some reason) “Hoarse Whisperer” account on Twitter are dating.

I mean good for her, younger man and all that, hope she finds happiness, etc. etc.

@divya I went to high school with Ravi (he was a few years ahead of me), he was well-liked then and it is so great to see him doing amazing things!

I finally felt something! Little back and forth in my bed no less! #earthquake #sfba

A ZeroTier community member queried ChatGPT about a functionality we do not have, and ChatGPT just literally made up installation instructions for this non-existent product.

Needless to say, the user was quite confused when they could not find the appropriate software to download on our site. The user then asked us where they could find the download, and we had to tell them the unfortunate news.
