@hippyvanstorage Right after the sirens I heard a helicopter and was like “uh oh, something even more serious is going down”. And the neighbors knocked it off. Maybe it was a Skype party.

Bad news is that a pandemic is bearing down on all of us, causing the City Council to go from 12 committees, with meetings held at City Hall, to 2 committees conducted via Skype. The good news is the acronym for one of the new committees is POGO.

@MichaelGillett I can confirm, after not having used my #Kinect with @Skype on the @Xbox One for almost 2 years, that stability has improved greatly! The Kinect no longer shuts itself down requiring a reboot of the system! (knock on wood) #Miraclesdohappen!

@Caged I haven’t found anything that’s great either but we are using 888Poker with a private lobby and Skype for chat. They’ve had a few network issues this week though. The only other option I found was Pokerstars private clubs.

These churches should be converted into mini hospitals. House of the lord. He won’t trip. Skype services until this blows over. Convert gyms too until this blows over. We can’t make GAINS anyway. I’ll pay my membership fee to do my part. Many solutions to help. Logic helps.

If anyone else experiences this problem, the user was also connected to Skype. Signing out of Skype resolved the Darth Vader voice issue. #TechTip

Really feeling for everyone with kids today 💛 wish I could help! I’m home and have all the time in the world, so if I can be of any digital help, please let me know. I can skype your kids and read them a story or play a game with them somehow if you want a break.

@MiaFarrow My spouse is a surgeon and the answer is no. Sorry I am just trying to help. Here in Germany we are even accepting patients from France. This virus is spreading fast. Be vigilant. Use FaceTime, Skype or whatever works for you. Best wishes from Germany.

So many years of forcing users to give feedback after a call - all of which was ignored , even when people did bother to say “this was shit. Quality was poor on video and audio. Interface is a mess. Fix all of this!l” Skype: thanks for your feedback!!!

@ActivateLearn Wow. Some passionate defence of Microsoft on this thread. I have to agree though that Skype (consumer) has dropped off my apps. I only installed it on my phone again yesterday to give some advice to someone who wanted to run a virtual church service over it.

@NiecyOKeeffe I was shouted at in work for not having a profile pic for my Skype calls but the issue was solved by me uploading a school photo (year 2 at Primary school). I have a phobia about seeing myself, I don't have a graduation photo and I only consented to wedding pics under duress
