Don't forget the context. You think that mechanism will help when booting on an 8-bit microcontroller?

I've been making a new series of Youtube tutorial videos, which I think will really help a lot of people, and I'd love some feedback. The ones I've done so far are
"How to Throw Up Better"
"How to Rock a Missing Tooth"
"Sinks are Just Strangely Shaped Toilets"
"Are Stigmata for Me?"
"Will Blinding Myself Make Me a Better Musician?"
"How to Fart Louder by Accident"
"Is Drinking Bleach REALLY that Dangerous?"
"How to Love Your Porn Addiction"
"Is She Still My Cousin if Our Parents are Divorced?"
"Is Self Absorption the Path to Enlightenment"
"Google Just Wants to Love You Up"
"Dying Broke as a Life Goal"
"If God is Real, Why Isn't He on Facebook?"
"Without Goals, There is No Failure"
"What Shoes Go Well with a Court Ordered Tracker?"

Speaking of such things, I just had one of those lovely "daddy can't crank the lawn mower" type moments trying to fix a dripping kitchen sink. Home Repairs Ain't Us.

Hmmm,
I'm disappointed. At first glance I thought this was a 15 step zebra logic puzzle.

I'd throw in a few intriguing titles, like "5 ways you can throw up better" :P

Microsoft has been warning us for months now that the "old" Skype would eventually stop working, as it's being phased out by that redesigned atrocity that looks more at home on Win 8/8.1/10 (although they back-ported it to Windows 7).
That version gets installed by default under C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft\Skype for Desktop and bears the version of 8.43.*. That one works fine. That's the newer one with the dumbed down UI.
The older version (the last to still have a semi-usable UI) is version 7.41.*. That version installs itself under C:\Program Files (x86)\Skype (both can run side-by-side), and has been sitting all week on my system with the spinning blue arrows icon, which indicates it's trying to connect. It's been stopped/restarted many times, the system has been rebooted - and I just found out it's doing the exact same thing on a secondary system of mine.
All public Skype status pages I could find all show everything as normal.
I'm guessing I'm not the only one, and that this actually means MS has finally pulled the plug on it...
[Edit]
I see it's being called "Skype classic", and was actually supposed to get killed last year on November 1st. Somehow mine kept chugging along until early this week...

Also here, still using it. This even though MS is able to make it worse and worse. Don't know a better alternative.

We're using Zoom. So far so good, though it creaks a bit when there are over 6 people with video

A corporate customer has started using this. Seems to be very hit and miss. Have several staff who can see the other end but have no sound and can't send video. Camera and microphone work in other applications though.

I went through this decades ago with all the various chat apps. I got tired of switching to the flavor of the week and settled on Skype when it got Microsoft's backing.

Well, the old skype tries to bind/listen on port 80 - if the new skype is running in the background, and has that port already, yer not gonna connect. Maybe. I think.

That's an interesting theory, but I've had both set up side-by-side for a few months now, and it's not until this week that the older Skype has gotten itself stuck.

The de-evolution of Skype from a mean-lean useful app to (post MS acquisition) a mush of un-coordinated facilities (with many of the most useful features removed) ...
Is a classic story of how software development can go off the rails.
