Not really. Covid has demonstrated that you kinda can keep things moving along, but it's not optimal for a lot of situations. Anything involving teamwork suffers greatly from not being face to face.
@thor
I'm... not even sure what you mean by that.
@thor
It matters because you're not gonna be able to solve what the guy calling is asking for without information from the office, be it from the computer or some other papers.

Is 6mb really that big? Also, sure you saved space, but unless you really know what you're doing, you're destroying the quality too. How much tweaking do you do with the settings? How slow do you allow the encode to be to get small files? Do you test for compatibility? I could easily push 16 reference frames on all encodes, but wind up with clips that Android refuses to play.
@thor
No cause it's not gonna be just 1 person there. You can expect several people to be in the space at the same time, only sometimes some of them might leave temporarily and it becomes a clusterfuck if you keep having to change phones around to whoever promises to stay put.
Imagine you leave on a break with the designated phone by accident, and someone calls you to solve a problem, but you can't help cause you're 5 minutes away from the office, so you now how to give the guy calling you a different number of a colleague you hope is still there and you're wasting everyone's time.
It sounds weird in the mobile phone era, but sometimes a landline makes things simpler.
@thor
You just need sometimes. If you haven't encountered such situations it's hard to explain. Sometimes you're not sure who exactly might be in a certain office space, but you know for sure someone will be there. So you call the landline phone and see who picks up.
@thor
Because sometimes you need a phone that is tied to a physical location.
@thor
This is old, but my guess is that you still need "landline" phones in offices, but it's even better if they can also support Skype or similar apps for conference calling.

True and true.

Gura seems very fun, but I don't think I'd marry her. But I'm sure out there somewhere is the perfect vtuber for me.
