Amelia Dimoldenberg, the creator behind Chicken Shop Date, has announced that she is bringing the hit YouTube interview series to a close after a "final few dates".

More from Deadline "When I was 17, I thought that I might meet the love of my life on a date in a chicken shop," she said. "Since then, I've spent my entire twenties sat across from the most incredible people, people I'd always dreamt of meeting. All of them charmed me (some more than others), and I definitely charmed them. "To me, the show is my very own romcom, and I have loved being able to share it with you. I am so grateful to everyone who has followed me on this journey and found a bit of joy in these episodes. I never thought I'd end Chicken Shop Date. I thought maybe it would be a part of my life forever, and in some way it always will, but I feel like it's

WhatsApp is testing a new feature for iPhone users that shows a green dot on a contact’s profile picture when they are actively using the app, according to beta tracker reports. The feature appears in iOS beta version and places a small green indicator at the bottom right corner of a user’s profile photo. The dot disappears when the person goes offline. This update builds on WhatsApp’s existing “last seen” and online status tools by giving users a more real time view of activity. It works in a similar way to status indicators already used on platforms like Instagram and Apple’s iMessage. Read more: Have you been blocked? WhatsApp may have a hidden clue At this stage, the green dot is only visible on the contact info page and not in the main chat list. This limits how often users may notice it, but the feature could expand to chats in future updates. WhatsApp has confirmed that privacy settings will still apply. Users who hide their online status will not show the green indicator, ensuring existing privacy choices remain in control. The feature is still in testing, and WhatsApp has not announced a public release date. If development continues smoothly

Woods, who initially pleaded not guilty, will avoid jail time. Send him to jail. Listen. I am not for just locking people up. However, drunk driving, especially with the means to have someone drive you, hint Uber does exist, if you are above Uber, you deserve 'some' jail time. Right? I cannot be the only who thinks having more money to avoid jail time for the same crime other people go to jail for is..., idk. WRONG?!?!

HARDCORE MODE PALWORLD FINALE REPLAY

Instagram has updated its automatic captioning feature to remove its grey background, in a move which has been criticised by deaf people online over its poor visibility. The tool, which relies on speech recognition when turned on by an account, enables individuals – including deaf oeople – to access videos which aren’t manually captioned by the creator. Deaf twins Hermon and Heroda Berhane, who have more than 129,000 followers on the platform with the account ‘Being Her’, highlighted the issue in a video to their account on Tuesday. They said: “Before it was white text on a grey background. Now? Just white text, no background, nothing. “Look, we know the auto captions were never perfect anyway – that’s literally why we tell you guys to create your own subtitles, not just rely on the auto one – but at least before you could read them, and if you are a creator or brand doesn’t add the subtitles at all, that’s ableism, period. “Now, if there’s a white wall or the outfits, anything light behind it, the text just disappears. Gone. “How does this even get approved?” It’s not known when the change to the access feature was introduced, though

We’re often told LinkedIn is a crucial part of networking when you're on the hunt for a big, exciting tech job, but Apple's new CEO proves it's not mandatory. John Ternus, who succeeded Tim Cook as CEO on Tuesday, has a LinkedIn profile, but it's a pretty spartan affair and doesn't list his current job title. Apple’s internal pages were updated immediately with the personnel change on Sept. 1, but Ternus’ LinkedIn lists him as VP of hardware engineering. That's not even his most recent role at Apple; he was promoted to senior VP in 2021 before landing the CEO gig this year. In total, he's been at Apple for more than 25 years. Ternus' profile also mentions a four-year stint as an engineer at Virtual Research Inc. But that’s it for his career history on LinkedIn, with no mention of his many achievements, including his influence on household-name products like the Apple Watch and AirPods. It also includes an education section, with his degree in Mechanical Engineering from the University of Pennsylvania. Other than that, and a profile picture, it has one followed interest... Apple. On Sept. 1, Ternus joined X with a simple “hello” post, which, as of
