  • _steve_davidson Steve Davidson (@_steve_davidson) reported

    technically it's possible. but against those pesky terms of service things (explicitly called out by a couple of em, too) can't hurt to try, I guess. but could I be bothered making everyone call me on a 'landline' and asking em all to text me via Skype? prolly not.

  • NastyNana16 Notinmyname (@NastyNana16) reported

    @SheriAWilkinson I am 72. This is the first Christmas I have not been with my son and my grandchildren, 15 and 18. I am heartbroken about that. I was hoping to find a safe way to travel, but my son just put his foot down and said no. "We have refrigerator truck morgues here, Mom." SKYPE was OK.

  • sophie_leyshon ☼sophie☼ (@sophie_leyshon) reported

    Some may say that Rosie and I have separation issues and I would say they’re crazy... Then I think back to when I was at school I used to Skype my own computer from my phone and set it up so I could see what she was doing while I was in class and... I might be the crazy one.

  • S_works_ pekmez necati (@S_works_) reported

  • sammaltby3 sam maltby (@sammaltby3) reported

    @anitasarkeesian @GamesHotline I have to be honest Anita. The Games hotline is obviously a very cheap service. Providing support through text message only, its 2021 in 3 days, we have phones, video chats, zoom and skype. Why are you only offering a text based service?????

  • AbsenceofRoses LovelyLotus❀ (@AbsenceofRoses) reported

    @GoroWentToRehab Wow the nerve of some people 😓. He Skypes you to vent wtf? Can he please get a diary? This is what a diary is for. 🙄 Speaking to him sounds so emotionally draining grr. Can you tell him you’re busy? Or maybe can you disable Skype and say Skype is not working?

  • MsLCWebs Ms. L.C. Webs (@MsLCWebs) reported

    @jaythenudekid Have been in relatable places. Anything I can help with? I can only call on Skype, so the sound quality would be shite, but I can call if you want

  • InfoWarri0r lvl 100 blade (elite) (chaos) (@InfoWarri0r) reported

    I realized I was down bad when I was talking about how nice a 2000 dollar stimulus would be as I level my night elf mage named “Thulesociety” on moonguard with my friends over Skype because one had his internet provider block discord

  • flyscie FS (@flyscie) reported

    Text. Email. Video chat. Skype. Zoom. Postal mail. Send a friend. Something. I like flowers, poems, candy, **** ppl do outwardly express to me their love. But I don't get it! It's always a problem. Ppl can take all day but what about pouring back into me? It's cool. Disappointed.

  • K_Ghislaine K-Ghislaine (@K_Ghislaine) reported

    @harleybangbang It would be amazing to sit down and have a beer with you again. Little moments of hope like that keep me motivated. I really felt this post hard. I stopped doing skype calls with my friends because it just fell disingenuous.

  • DampDesert ☃️ Eggnog Slander ☃️ (@DampDesert) reported

    Someone really sat down on OBS and made unfriended and edited that **** together... 1 hour and 30 minutes of skype noises

  • thunsaker Thomas Hunsaker 🌵🐒 (@thunsaker) reported

    @burgessmedia @MicrosoftTeams It's been great! We switched from Skype for Business, which was terrible, and WebEx which was fine...integrated calendar is a huge plus for productivity.

  • icpgec ray 🦕🥏 (@icpgec) reported

    pvp and start talking on skype. Overtime, Skeppy develops feelings for Bad, but Bad comes down with a srs illness (ur choice, fictional or not) and slowly stops texting Skeppy over time. He eventually dies and didn't tell Skeppy so he's left there to wonder what he did

  • abdullah5490 Abdullah Zafar (@abdullah5490) reported

    @dlee_code I downloaded skype scriptd update 2 days ago and ran into same issue. I’m talking about windows smart screen protection, not specifically about chrome.

  • MarshMicrobe Dr. Ashley Bulseco (@MarshMicrobe) reported

    @torrance_hanley Me too - I feel like I’m making zero progress (sometimes moving backwards). But we’re doing better than we think. Let me know if I can help in any way, even if it’s just turning on Skype to co-work or to chat about ideas!

  • r_scrocca Victoria R Scrocca (@r_scrocca) reported

  • GEIST_DJ ::GEIST:: (ɡaɪst) (@GEIST_DJ) reported

    Tonight has been a learning experience. Any #Xbox streamers on #Twitch who are having problems getting their cams to be on stream, avoid testing with Skype beforehand. Skype never closes and it hogs the cam feed. Just go straight to Twitch app.

  • Cuddablee $𝖙𝖔𝖗𝖒𝖎𝖊-𝖈𝖍𝖆𝖓 {*32 𝖕𝖗𝖔𝖔𝖋𝖘*} Offline (@Cuddablee) reported

    @MOUVENCHY @claytian8 thats not even remotely possible. I don't know how they do it, but I heard of you call and screenshare they can compromise your account somehow. Like control your mouse? Idk. It's ridiculous, I didn't like Skype but we never had these problems when it was more relevant.

  • mati826 Mati (@mati826) reported

    I have answered the same question about the same vehicle via email, Skype, Zoom, and 2 Service Now tickets and my boss sent me a text asking me to call the agent (the sane one all 5xs) tomorrow to directly answer them. I- it isn't hard and it's not even something I handle. Oy.

  • K_McCall_WL Kyle 🎅 (@K_McCall_WL) reported

    Skype for business is down, our company relies on it way too much. Finding that out quickly.
