The long term socio-economic imoact of dating apps. Comparing 1980 vs. 2020, Americans became less selective on race and more selective on income and skill in choosing a spouse.

Researchers believe this accounts for 50% of the increase in household income inequality from 1980 to 2020.

They also became less selective on education. Maybe that should worry us a bit.

"If you buy a new iPhone or iPad and don't have enough iCloud storage to back up your current device using iCloud Backup, you're eligible to get temporary iCloud storage."

Worth reading this note from Apple, doing the prep before you start the transfer...

Evening all,

A distressing week in #TheArchers where the mother called us to dob her son. He was apparently driving someone else’s car without permission, caused a crash, rescued the people and then put the blame for the crash on the car owner moving her into the driving seat. She said he’s a good lad really . . .

@thearchers

Sgt Dixon of Dock Green, answering the phone, saying "So your son has been regretting it ever since, and, you've been covering it up".

Servers with more than four choices are normally running customised versions or "forks" of Mastodon, such as Glitch Mastodon or Hometown Mastodon. Alternatively some admins have the needed skills to customise their own server directly.

There are some well-run Glitch and Hometown servers listed at fedi.garden/fediverse-servers-…

Unfortunately they don't always say on the server's descrption which extra features are active, but you could try asking the admins?

I have been briefed by my team regarding what federal law enforcement is investigating as a possible assassination attempt of former President Trump today.

A suspect is in custody, and I commend the work of the Secret Service and their law enforcement partners… t.co/rU9O1OoPMr

“It does not matter, to Vance, that these Haitian newcomers came here legally, under the Temporary Protected Status program. It does not matter that they filled a valuable need … What matters to Vance is who they are, where they come from and what they look like. They don’t belong to this soil, he might say, and therefore they don’t belong.” nytimes.com/2024/09/14/opinion…

If Vance “had a moral compass, a shred of decency or a belief in anything other than his own ambition and will-to-power, he would resign his Senate seat effective immediately, leave the presidential race and retire from public life, following a mournful apology for his ethical transgressions.”

Tonight's #Monsterdon film is #NightoftheComet (1984), starting in just under an hour (9 EDT). Viewers who want more later may enjoy a @skiffyandfanty podcast from 2017 about this -- the Torture Cinema subcast is usually about bad movies, but actually, they found a lot to love about this one.
