as som have mentioned. I call email, email. And I call video conferencing video conferencing and would say hop on a conference call or just call. I mean many people dial in. Video is just standard now but they used to be done with just phones. I usually say the message app used as at a workplace its whatever they use. Open some windows is talking about gui windows not ms windows. I don't get the alternative thing at all. Its like that thing with ms not being able to trademark windows because windows is a common word. you say windows don't let ms own that trump. I do say google sometimes for search and that is bad but I often say search or look it up. I just need to stop saying google sometimes.
I'm pretty sure that in this specific context, it's actually referring to the physical windows that you would crack to let in some fresh air. I'm also pretty sure that this post was a joke, LOL.
ah, getting the last bit was likely key to realizing it.
