Ok I tracked down the original video and the missing intro might be my favorite part.

This is one the best things I’ve ever seen

Imagine blowing 30 years of search engine dominance—so much so that your website became a verb—only to kill your search engine in favor of a inferior product only tech bros and their sycophants like.

@fuelgrannie Evergreen tweet, unfortunately

[𓆑 @becauseberkeley]

One Sunday morning walked by & the gate was locked & a kid on the stoop had OD'd. Hopped the spikey fence & tried CPR but was too late. 20's, redhead from Oregon. New shoes that looked like mine. Fresh haircut. Cutie. Looked like any kid at the Castro bars.

Forever cursed spot.

Current mood…

I hate being a sore winner, but damn, I’m pretty bitter about all the condescending jerks from outside SF, telling me what’s best for my city.

Many of these folks were people I respected and followed, but in a post-truth world, it’s clear it’s all for sale…

He challenged a working class mother married to a firefighter who listed her civil service pension as her only asset.

There is no world in which a fintech centimillionaire with a self-financed campaign was the underdog in that race.

And she beat his ass with 1/20th the money

@whollera Awww, thanks. Sorry to report it's not mutual.

Urbanists remain the worst

[Will Holleran @whollera]

Doors were closed and the driver opened again for this crackhead. What is this madness

[𓆑 @becauseberkeley]

Acceptable use of tech

[Om Patel @om_patel5]

THIS GUY LIVES UNDER SFO'S TAKEOFF PATH SO HE BUILT A CEILING PROJECTOR THAT TRACKS EVERY PLANE FLYING OVER HIS HOUSE IN REAL TIME

he uses a cheap $30 radio receiver to pick up the signals that planes broadcast while flying.

then projects them onto his ceiling in real time

when a jet flies over his house you hear it outside and at the exact same moment a plane glides across his ceiling labeled with the airline, aircraft type, and destination

pure black background so the projector's rectangle disappears and only the aircraft are visible

but he didn't stop at planes

it also draws the real sky behind them. sun, moon, bright stars, constellations, and live satellites including the ISS. all at their true positions for his exact location and time in real time

so he's lying in bed watching the actual night sky projected onto his ceiling with real planes crossing through it as they take off from SFO

there is a huge market for every man alive that runs outside to see the helicopter

vibe coded the whole thing himself with a cheap radio, a projector, and some clever software

@neo_antiquarian STOP IT

[Silence Equals Death @NoJNoP4C]

@decadimitry @PippengerHarlo Weiner has to be defeated. That racist fucking beanpole cannot be elected to Congress.

[Y Disassembler @loomdoop]

It's just amazing how dirty this is. This is an offshoot of Chakrabarti's Brand New Congress, and it's total lies, and trying to minimize Scott Wiener.

It has Connie Chan, who has never taken money at all, and has opposed genocide the start, as 8 times more AIPAC™ than Scott.

[𓆑 @becauseberkeley]

@neo_antiquarian @dondisappoints I am still skeptical, they've never worked in the past. I need more info than "analog of cat hormone". I don't trust anyone anymore.

[𓆑 @becauseberkeley]

I know I have to re-home him. I'm getting so attached. It's killing me.

He hates cats and fights mine. They're afraid to come home.

Otherwise, the ideal cat.

[𓆑 @becauseberkeley]

@silvioriechi @neo_antiquarian @whollera It must be very tiring, especially since you know the business. You could spend your whole life trying to explain things like the importance of community. Don't give up! We need you!

[𓆑 @becauseberkeley]

@neo_antiquarian @whollera Except @silvioriechi. Sorry!

[𓆑 @becauseberkeley]

@neo_antiquarian @whollera Imagine if we could auto-block unsolicited urbanist opinions. That would be a beautiful day.

[𓆑 @becauseberkeley]

@neo_antiquarian @dondisappoints Update: I bought a plug-in Feliway and he seems a bit more mellow. Oddly, I suddenly feel better than I have in years. What if I just needed cat face hormone for all these years? Or sleeping in a room smelling of burning plastic?

[𓆑 @becauseberkeley]

Are you looking to adopt a cat that will constantly gaze lovingly at you and sleep in your bed and will occasionally trip you by doing figure eights around your legs as you walk down the stairs? I have the cat for you.

[𓆑 @becauseberkeley]

I've been feeding him for two years. Completely feral (or so it seemed). Two years in, he accepts some scritches. Now he is jello bliss cat and follows me everywhere.

Exceptional whiskers.

[Y Disassembler @loomdoop]

@jumanatag The real story is even better. She makes it sound like a sovereign country but it's a military exclusion zone and protected habitat in Albania, currently under investigation for corruption. And they're building a tourist resort, not a community.

[Jerque Cousteau @neo_antiquarian]

I think it must be stated loudly that Connie Chan did this with only 600K and a scrappy crew of volunteers.

[𓆑 @becauseberkeley]

Intensely pleasurable to watch Connie Chan's numbers continue to rise.

[Dimitry Yakoushkin @decadimitry]

@undapav Keeps getting better with every update. Scott is in trouble in the general. He needs to pick up 9% more and I don't see it.

Support an independent, woman-owned business. Stimulate the Vallejo economy. Get something beautiful in return.

Win win win.
