Ew, http://firecrawl.dev replaced a bike store in the Lower Haight. Their product is exactly one of the unethical parts of AI. They are building a content scraper to take this like this Toot and feed it into your model.

Thank you all for 3,000 followers on here! Here’s a photo of Danny to celebrate the occasion ☺️
3 years into being part of Mastodon, I continue to be impressed with how wonderful the people here are and how much this social network actually FEELS social. People replying to one another, having conversations, learning things, sharing moments of joy, making friends.
Mastodon brought my business clients, helped me gain confidence in my own voice, freed me from dependence on big tech and algorithms, rekindled my interests, introduced me to incredible people and projects, and served as a source of hope in humanity in the times when cynicism and nihilism felt all but inevitable.
I love our little corner of the internet, and am so glad that it’s still here despite everyone who professed it was doomed to fade into irrelevance.
Thank you to everyone reading these words for being here on the Fedi. The world is a little better thanks to your choice to support an independent web.

Chrome now has a bug where if a web page pops up "log in with Google" it happens in the browser UI, not in the web page UI. And it freezes things up enough so Ctrl-W no longer works to close the tab while the "log in" dialog is displayed.
Good jerb! I suspect this is related to some monopolistic practice of Google favoring their proprietary, privacy-invading login system in their browser.

Had a phenomenal dinner at Akoko, a fine dining West African restaurant in London. French cooking and saucing techniques with Senegalese, Nigerian, and Ghanaian flavors. Also lovely front of house.
Very exciting meal, one of the best I've had in years. Run by Aji Akokomi, current chef is Mutaro Balde. These flavors are terrific and don't normally get the fine dining treatment, a real pleasure to enjoy.
Everything was great but our favorite dish was thin ribbons of squid in a sauce with coriander and a meaningful chile heat.

Wikipedia informs me Jabberwocky was originally a parody of Anglo-Saxon Poetry and þis form is delightful.
Twas bryllyg, and þe slythy toves
Did gyre and gymble in þe wabe:
All mimsy were þe borogoves;
And þe mome raths outgrabe.
