@Dooscar575 Haha just got someone to help out, but I’m still down to do a cam show! Just need to get my external hard drive set up because my mac doesn’t have enough storage for skype

@MikeMikeMed Yes; compared to the BBC, CBC is parochial. Funding is part of the problem but it probably doesn’t explain everything. With Skype and Zoom you can interview people all over the world at no or little cost. Still, having more foreign correspondents on the ground would help a lot.

ONCE AGAIN an important interview - this time with a Rabbi who saw the terrible events in Vienna last night - was ruined because @BBCRadio4 insist on using Skype or similar. If it’s important, USE AN OLD FASHIONED PHONE CALL! Infuriating.

there’s a lot of terrible people out there, but those who ask “aRe YoU jOiNiNg!?!” 5 min before a skype meeting starts are the WORST.

Love it when my boss keeps trying to call me even though my skype clearly says I'm offline (due to not being signed-in yet). What I hate even more is that the call always redirects to my mobile phone. So I'm always getting calls even if I'm not working.

Problem: I later realised I didn't sign out of Zoom, Skype, VS Code, IntelliJ among others... Wondering the fastest way(commands) to wipe your linux userdel <username> Maybe getting super to remove my user might have been the best generic solution?? Huh...

This is a disease that has a huge impact on lower wage service workers. You can’t stock shelves via Zoom. Microsoft Teams wont give Alzheimer patients their meds. Skype won’t pick up the trash. /42

@zacbowden I mean, it’s Skype. That app/service has needed a ground-up rethink and rewrite for years.

Dont know if it’s just me but the human race is so down at the moment and positivity just doesn’t exist. It’s not just here on our Island but after spending 3 hours on a global Skype call it’s everywhere and is more of a Pandemic than Covid.

Last week I upgraded my laptop to Lion. Now, when I knit in #rstudio to “Word” Skype is opening. Any help? (uninstalling Skype has fixed the issue but it is not a permanent solution) #rstats #r4ds

@daisyholder @BBCLondonNews It was on the radio. @EddieNestorMBE just after the 7 o'clock news, although my crappy phone reception meant I didn't make much sense until 7.15. Thanks Eddie & sorry for the broken robot at the start of our interview. Stick to Skype next time eh?

I would be genuinely interested in a deep-dive analysis of how Zoom instantly became the go-to video messaging service back in March, instead of the dozens of other existing services, which people had already heard of and had access to: Skype, FaceTime, WebEx, Google Whatever

@RepSpanberger FYI, NK is recognized by whole world, also by USA as a part of Aze. Why didn’t you ask for sanctions for Armenia last 30 years? And if you concern about NK problem, why you skype only with armenins/agressors? Hello? Where is logic?

@miffythegamer Bad idea: but feel duty-bound to have my 93 year old Dad, whose memory is failing, to stay. My brother will have to drive him down. Dad has been so adversely affected with all activities curtailed except walking, he can no longer use Skype and struggles even with KOMP 😳😢.
