the office where all the conops (customer service) folks work is at least 85% women. working there is like being the guy who takes dance class in highschool. the best customer service for google products is from the super hard core google users. usually if we have a workaround for something we don't even post it just send it to them and they will help the other people for us it's great.

https://plus.google.com/hangouts/_ then just send the link to the room you're in to whoever, or use the in hangout invite. done. we're also close to removing the plugin requirement. hey rotor did you ever look in to http://www.google.com/intl/en/chrome/business/solutions/for-meetings.html ? it integrates really well if your business already uses google calendar.

Rufus Ping posted:is s2s xmpp federation ever coming back ianapm, but no i take like 60% of the blame for it being called hangouts. when the team was split between seattle and sweden we had an internal vchat room where we would idle in the background and ask questions occasionally just like irc that i named hangout. 2 years later, welp. they did realize that talk was a better brand name, but i forget what the other reasons were to switch. they managed to convince the people whose opinions that mattered though.

i'm not sure where you got all that. leadership was like, "we need to rebrand talk for reasons x,y,z. this will have consequences, including downsides a,b,c. it's still important we do this and xyz outweigh abc." where c is hangouts is a little weaker brand than talk.

ipv6 works on the desktop, not sure about mobile. it should in theory the rtp stuff is all shared. slow audio == packet loss concealment most likely. if its really important you can find the logs under %localappdata% or ~/Library/Application\ Support/ and pm them to me i'll take a look. btw the best feature of the ios version is free pstn phone calling without using cellular

uncurable mlady posted:there was an article a while back in the nyt magazine iirc about why this has happened; essentially, after the big wins against Enron and their financial guys, the rulings got gutted/overturned by higher courts and the doj got gunshy about going after individuals, instead preferring to wring large cash settlements and fines out of the companies. this has worked insofar as they've gotten record settlements against banks and other corporate entities, but those settlements are barely a couple of percent of their annual profits so it's just an easy cost of doing business and nothing changes. well they got 1 years worth of profits out of pnb paribas for sidestepping the sanctions on sudan over darfur just this month. in one sense getting record sums out of these assholes is nice, but in the other its turned in to this extortion racket. the companies can't conceivably go to trial and are under absolute duress of complete revocation of business. no judicial review, no legislation applies, no public policy debate as to whether its better to do this or go after executives/boardmembers personally. it reeks of political ambition by ny prosecutors and tying all this to personal prosecutorial discretion is unseemly.

Notorious b.s.d. posted:because the hangouts team has abandoned the plugin in favor of a NaCL setup that only works in chrome beta this was me but you're totally off base. saucepanman posted:is NaCl code for something besides salt? it depends which part you're talking about. no browser supports npapi any more, rightly, but to launch the daemon you need startprocess or equivalent that is of course not possible in a sandboxed nacl/ppapi plugin. i don't know what he's talking about with beta chrome though. if you use chrome it's entirely webrtc now which is of course way easier. anyways, whoever was mad that you needed g+ to use hangouts on ios i fixed that for you go get the latest version. i guess that means g+ is dead rite cremnob???

oh i know what he's talking about. things that we could do in the standalone app that we can't do with pure webrtc do use a nacl plugin that itself probably uses new features in beta chrome. but that poo poo's just for moustaches and screensharing.
