What Are You Doing Right Now
-
@johnhooks I had one a few moments ago.
-
@dafyre It was upright on my phone... not sure why it turned it on the desktop....
-
So my wife and I use cord every once in a while for voice chatting. They send you messages every once in a while, kind of like Snapchat. The last message from them was 5 months ago. I just got one a couple minutes ago that says "Well the end is almost here, we're shutting down in the next few days"
Thanks for the heads up? Good thing it's not something we rely on.
-
Never heard of them. What's the point of a service like that? You can send voice on every normal channel already.
-
You can't do voice chats on hangouts on Android. Google hadn't come out with Messenger yet when we started using it.

You can't? That's news to me that's how I generally use hangouts. Oh, my mistake you mean like audio messages and not two-way communication like an in person conversation.

Ya it's a big oversight IMHO. You can send pictures but not videos or sound messages. You can only do that with their Messenger app which is for SMS not Hangouts.
Some point here they are going to take SMS out of Hangouts on Android also, so idk what's going to happen.
Another reason why we switched to Telegram

I love hangouts, probably one of the best SMS apps I have used. That would suck if they took SMS out of it. Also... I don't see the value of audio messages, texting is much simpler.

I was driving a lot when we started using it so it was nice for that. She could just answer when she wanted so we weren't on the phone all the time.

That makes sense. A good use case for sure.

I know of a few people that use it like that. Never have myself.

It's one of those days
when you have to open the database and look at the users table to figure out that admin username. -

The admin account, of course, lol.
This was before md5 passwords were salted. It worked great for a few apps.

The whole point was we had to look up the NAME of the admin account!!
-
Cause a certain person who setup the account forgot to keep track of it

Condolences to @ryanov whose grandmother just passed away, two weeks shy of 100.

Very sorry to hear @ryanov
