    @lovely84smg @M1Singapore I face similar issue recently with m1 data. Voice calls over Skype, Whatsapp, Facetime or Telegram - all get continuous disruption. Phone restart done. m1 also reset settings last week. Issue persists and raised with 1627. Engineers yet to revert. 😥 #m1dataissue

    My phone is broken so I can't speak to my irl friends The only way I could talk to them would be if I was allowed discord but my dad blocked discord on the internet, and he's telling me to use skype🤮

  • thexainy xainy (@thexainy) reported

    And yet, the solutions I'm given are "pay for phone service," "try to get phone service from google or skype, etc.," "let us know when you have access to a phone and we'll probably help you." Why ******** would I spend time or money...just so I could give a company my money?

    If you’re in the business of giving free help to unknown researchers that are giving you 0day because “they trust you”, consider not relying on encrypted zip files. Validate your other party. Phone, video, Skype, authenticated encrypted communication. Not a ZIP file by email.

    @DannyM52233420 I don’t think I’m ready to do Skype calls now Danny but maybe down the road!

    Just found out my years of using Skype is no more. It's gone totally dead. Thanks, Microsoft, for killing a very low cost service that was great for what I needed it for, and have no easy way to replace. I needed basic, not 'high energy eating' bells and whistles. :-(

    @TrumagooFM Holy crap man wtf. I should seek would seek some therapy for ptsd to be honest, I'm very sure you can get some help online via zoom/skype sessions, please please consider this!

  • graykimbrough Gray "serial millennial myth debunker" Kimbrough (@graykimbrough) reported

    @bartonwillage I guess it blows my mind that people are still stressing the possibility of tech issues at this point. Academics, non-academic hiring departments, and JMCs should be comfortable using Skype/Zoom/WebEx/whatever. They weren't a year ago, sure. But now they should be!

    @cherriebIossoms @jediqueenie @snapchatsupport It‘s ridiculous. Having that problem with Skype. It’s so bad cause it comes back to us and users think it’s really me who betrays them. :/

    In-person meetings help foster relationships in a way that Skype or conference calls often do not.

    @RebBrooks1 that must feel terrible! Did you get to see them via Skype/Facetime at least?

  • TomatoCheese TomatoGrilledCheese (@TomatoCheese) reported

    @hikosaemon I remember after the 3/11 quake nobody could make phone calls via their mobile phone so these pay phones saved the day for many. My wife and I had Skype on our phones so we could call, but everyone trying to do that will send mobile internet to a crawl for sure thus not working.

  • CChapmanVisuals Chris Chapman (@CChapmanVisuals) reported

    @kocienda I still can’t work out what caused Zoom to be everyone’s default, it’s terrible and wasn’t a household brand until March ‘20, how did Skype, Facetime or Discord not dominate this market
