All three were cool . My favourite was the vulcan , but maybe that was seeing it fly . If you are interested it ' s user manual is on avialogs <| sep |> I like alternative scenes like Texas and Canada , but Nashvillemainstream is mediocre at best . <| sep |> San Antonio alone has like 50 truck stops in Bexar County . So yes I think the trucking industry directly or indirectly provides about 40 % of the nation ' s jobs . I mean we even have automated check out now . 7 registers watched by 1 person . 6 people lost their jobs . And the 78 th person makes the same amount as before . <| sep |> Obscurity was a bit of hyperbole . Irrelevance isn ' t the right word either . Inertia is a good one ! Skype is still supposed to be the only viable option for video conferencing as far as I know . But that ' s not going to last . Facebook Messenger has 1 bn users total , 300 m of which use voice and video chat each month . That ' s compared to Skype ' s 300 m . In minutes spoken over VOIP , I believe Skype still has has the edge , but for how long ? Then there ' s Viber and Whatsapp the latter being owned by Facebook . Even Signal shows a lot of promise . Skype has been on the VOIP scene for a long time . VOIP is growing massively , so Skype is also growing . But my hunch is that the absolute growth is misleading as Skype appeals to less and less people , who now have alternatives . The moment that video conferencing is solved by one of the big players , Skype will face serious issues unless they are able to take a more commanding role for communication .
