Had an excellent time at the latest ATX Mastering Mafia meetup, Peruvian food & then viewing the Lone Star AudioFest. Hanging out with supposed "competitors" can be super fun. #audio #hifi #music #hangouts

Adolfos oozes with quaintness in an unassuming little place in #NewOrleans. Somehow, they fit 40 tables in this upstairs restaurant. The food is amazing and the #eggplant Parmesan was bigger than my car.

I love finding these #local #hangouts away from the overpriced tourists traps.

> ...the ideal hangout has a few components: spontaneity, purposelessness, and a willingness among all parties involved to go wherever the conversation leads them...

It just dawned on me that the Beatles' "Let it Be" cover looks like zoom/hangouts nowadays.

Dug up this New Yorker cartoon gem from my Album Archive.

I guess I'll just stick this ZIP file somewhere.

PSA: Google is deleting some old Hangouts photos this week

It's hard to say exactly what is getting deleted, but it's easy to download.

Is it possible to use OBS (Open Broadcasting Software) to replicate a Google Hangouts type experience?

I'm an OBS novice. From what I can tell the answer is "sorta", but more of a static multi-person stream and less where folks dynamically come and go.

What would it take to extend OBS to function as a Hangouts analog for, say, up to 16 people. Could this be done as a plugin / extension, or would it require changes in the core source code?

After Hangouts was…well whatever it was but for brevity I'll use the word cancelled, I've just ditched Google on the whole "chat" thing.

Look I'm not a beta tester for my chats. I'm uninterested in using some service and then some random time down the road it getting sunset to only then move to some "NEW™" chat program.

Google's burned so many bridges of trust at this point it's become a significant contributor to climate change. #GoogleChat #Hangouts

看了這篇我可以理解 #Google 為何要在 #Hangouts 放棄 #XMPP 協定，因為基本設計有許多問題存在（雖然部份問題可以繞過）。

If you were a Google Hangouts user, note you only have until January 1 to create an archive of your Hangouts data.

Instructions on how to create a backup using Google Takeout (all data) and/or Google Album Archive (images you shared):

Note that the Hangouts archive created in Google Takeout only includes data back to May 2013.

If you used Google Talk, you may find your conversations by creating an archive of your Gmail "chat" label data.

#post recently added #mastodon to its social media links on user profiles. Even though I really like the design at Post I prefer the #Fediverse for multiple reasons. Still I kinda wish #Google would buy Post - and sticks to it (or bring back #Hangouts).

@mvexel @brewsterkahle Thanks for the boost, Martijn! I'm huge fan of #OpenStreetMap and the work you've done on #MapRoulette. I could swear we did a story on it years ago when I was working on #TWiT, but I can't find any record of it.

You and the folks at OpenStreetMap.org need volunteers, too! If anyone here loves #OpenSource projects and wants a fun challenge, they should go to maproulette.org and help add places and fix data in Open Street Map. They need people to add details about everything from highways in #SaudiArabia to #museums in #France and barbershops in the #BayArea.

We've all learned a lesson this past month about how crucial it is to have open source backups to the corporate services we depend on. There's nothing keeping #Google from sending #Maps to the #GoogleGraveyard like #Reader, #Hangouts, and all the useful editing tools that Maps used to have. I'm going to try switching to Open Street Maps, and maybe even track down some US museums websites for you!

#Google is just about ready to let #Hangouts die its famously long death, and the company is asking users to not look back as they mosey on over to Google #Chat. https://tchlp.com/3WiKQqZ
