I'm Melody, a Hawaiʻi ʻelepaio, currently nesting in Colorado, USA! Therian, Furry, Chirper.
🐭 And I'm Cookie! A mouse that's figuring herself out and sometimes squeaks.
I'm also an adventurer, photographer, big into video games and repairing/modding old consoles, hiking, and whatever else I can get my wings on. Married to the wonderful @kenna_puppers. Professionally I build stuff that goes into space.

I've realized that my problem with voice calls on computers really does come down to how large the group call is.
Group size of two or three? Great! Will chirp and squeak.
Four? Limited chirping but still engaged.
Five? I'm staying muted unless I'm directly asked a question.
Six or more? Non-zero chance that I've muted the audio and considering dropping out of the call.

This is a super common system for HVAC anywhere that one can reliably evaporate water. It's known as a swamp cooler for residential, and is far more energy efficient than other methods which makes for a lower carbon footprint. That's good!
The tradeoff is that you end up using water to remove heat. And it can be a lot of water if there's a lot of heat generated, which is bad.
