@TheRichWoods @NorthFaceHiker @Skype @SkypeInsider @MSEdgeDev @onedrive @Windows Bad is the understatement. Microsoft gets down the field so well, but seems to, more times than not, get stopped or run out of steam/interest at the 1 yard line.... across the board. They have serious focus issues there. Always have...always w....

@h3h3productions @KEEMSTAR @andymilonakis @anything4views Daniel can’t read. If he could, he would’ve seen you said it was a conspiracy theory a few tweets ago. New theory: keem is a team to help his show because he can’t actually read. He needs them to tell him the news and read off replies to his tweets via a Skype call.

@world_on_a_wire Expect the unexpected! I did one phone AND video interview (sound issues on their end), had a fire alarm go off in the middle of another interview, and found that, even when I tested my camera angle using Skype or FaceTime, the committee could always see more than I'd anticipated

@SweetHeathen @brittaaany3089 @UNIRockTV @SteveMcRae_ @Jo12883350 @countrygirl3702 It’s absolutely true. I also think whatever delay goes on technically doesn’t help. I’ve noticed that on other streams with the both of them too. Idk if it’s Skype or whatever, but I think it makes them think they are interrupting each other.

@AlwayzInTrouble I remember I was offshore and I was told I could go home for my son birthday and I told him I’d be there. When they told me I couldn’t leave and I had to tell him over Skype that I couldn’t come home, he wiped his eyes and was crushed and I broke down like a fraction.

@saq3 @shayandahalf @TheSarahDiaa @shelo9 @jonathangard @alex_malouf You’re right, Shaheeda - in most countries, WhatsApp & Skype are a given. There’s nothing stopping UAE charging tourists, at the points of entry, $/£ 2-3. That tax would certainly help towards connectivity costs across the country etc. Where there’s a will, there’s always a way

Train Hell pt 367: I know they help it, but two big blokes coughing every 30 seconds to London. A lot of coughing and Pat Metheny at full volume isn't doing the trick. Maybe Rage Against the Machine. And the fella having a Skype meeting. Really. I should stay home.

@xclubby @CandyWithAK69 @petalkinks One more thing. PayPal doesn't help our camscores. Get w the program & buy tokens-- its the same $$! I think a model would have to be stupid to charge less for a skype show paid with PayPal that can be easily canceled & the model loses but hey you got to ***!
-
Dave Pearson (@davepdotorg) reported
@katebevan Perhaps, but the big problem here I'd say is the apparent lack of warning. As I said, when Skype support was dropped there was months of warning that it was going away. And the fact a fix is supposed to be coming suggests it's not really an out of support issue.
-
Tim (@timbo_baggins) reported
@chrisphin Each caller records their “end” locally and uploads the audio file to you via Dropbox, for example. That negates call issues due to line delay, dropouts, Skype “Cyloning” etc. A better microphone helps but the resultant increase in audio quality is worth it.
