An unusual site at West Oakland tonight ⁦@SFBART, two stationary trains east bound⁩ - any idea why the trains are backing up?

@SFBART When will the service be restored? Today?

I’d quite like to know what the function did that was returning Null in the #crowdsrike takedown yesterday-why did nobody suggest a solution that involves plugging in the device or enabling the bios switch that makes it return a valid memory address?

@bend_studio Ha - thanks, looking south and north on the bridge is picturesque, looking at the bridge itself is not (it looks worryingly much like the Baltimore bridge that just collapsed…), was stuck for an hour but still managed to get the hike in…

Decide to do a hike in Sonoma, get in car, get as far as #RichmondBridge - stuck in grid lock traffic behind a multi car accident. Car off…

[Graeme Newlands @captainandenemy]

@abc7newsbayarea @limebike Two thirds of the bridge has a nice bike lane …

The stainless steel edges of the cybertruck make it absolutely lethal for pedestrians and cyclists - wake up ⁦@USDOT⁩ ⁦@NHTSAgov⁩

Car industry is trying to convince you that you want an overpriced cyberbeast that will be parked 90% of the time and used to get groceries on most days.

I'm upset to learn that tomato soup is in the ultraprocessed food category - I'm hoping this is a mistake similar to the butter vs margarine fiasco: https://t.co/n8P2IhWBrL

Accounts on Twitter occasionally rebrand. I guess when someone buys the follower list or when a motivated group surreptitiously uses a community interest to build a following. @Twitter It would be great if I could see when the rebrand happens (or possibly the history of rebrands)
