They are not killing Skype, they just now bury the corpse. Skype died by malnutrion and bad parenting by MS a decade ago.

You can't just ask for it and expect anything to happen, Michael

Of course they do

That is HUUUGE. Handcrafting UI for these small OLED with e.g. U8glib (now U8G2) was always very fiddly. That tool looks promising.

Do not listen to him! Europe! Come to Europe! Great Benefits, long holidays and you can travel between multiple countries and temperature-zones. When staying in canada, you can only travel back to the US or take a plane to cross either one of the two biggest oceans to get anywhere. In Europe you can spend a decade without running out of places to go. Also: We love your brain. Please come to Europe!

Manjaro was my "throwing into the water"-distro and it worked very well getting me swimming. YMMV.

Thanks for the link OP!

what did they use? µTorrent?

+1 for Mailbox, it also supports your own Domain to use

Besides all that drama of OP:

Wouldn't that be THE BEST social media community where messages like that would actually happen? I would love to be a part of an open undivisive group of people who would write things like "Hey, I'm Joe, I do this and that and noticed you, lets band if you like" or "I'm jenna, I do the creative work for XY instance, lets connect". That would be really cool. The problem is as always that we can not trust these messages because of the last decade of misuse on various platforms. Even if we take out all the scams, we only accept the right message in the right medium: If someone would write me what OP posted on LinkedIn, I would read it as a business inquire connection (at best). If she would write me that on Tinder&co, I would take it as an avance. If I would get a message like that on facebook, I do not believe in it as a honest request anymore. On Insta I would read it as a scam too. But where is the place where I can get a message like that and trust it as it is the norm in that social network? McLuhan said "The Medium is the Message". We need a Platform/Network/Medium to give a room to actually send a message like that where a connection without the aspect of business or sex is assumed because of the choosen Platform/Network/Medium.

The Fediverse will not solve this problem sadly, as it is mainly just decentralized, but is not out to solve societary tilts and disgraces. But it is nice to think that such a place/site/room could exist (one day?) where a person (even of another gender) could have an exchange like that without bad intentions. As usally, The good ones are silent, and the loud ones are scams.

For my creative work I need scalpels and blades. Buying good quality Swann Morton blades in small packages is very costly. So I bought 200pcs Box. Whenever I take a new blade, I think how I will pick from this box mostly for the next 40 years of my life. I might even die before I used the last blade. But then again, that was how I got my first blades from my grandfather back when I was a teenager. It seems to be a pan-generational item in our family.
