Zoom (the videotelephony software) and the “weird initial display name problem”

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zoom_(software) A while ago I installed the Zoom app for macOS and since then, I always first appeared in Zoom sesssions using a name, that I intended to use in a certain community only. That irritated people quite a little. I really, really wanted to change that. I searched, and searched, and searched, but I… Continue reading Zoom (the videotelephony software) and the “weird initial display name problem”

my Microsoft Surface3 no longer “wifi-connects” to my router – problems with “WPA3 transition mode” (WPA2 + WPA3)

IM clients and deleting conversations

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/WhatsApp https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Telegram_(software) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Signal_(software) I sort of like the feature to edit sent messages.
