    Tonight: I wanna play a game. Nope, missing DLL. Ok, now I have to download C++ support for 2012 windows... which requires a login, which I can't do because @microsoft screwed up the merge of my skype and MS accounts. Ugggh

    International friends and families 🌎, you can still use Skype credit or direct line to call your loved one’s mobile number if internet is cut off. MPT and Myanmar Net is down at the moment #SaveMyanmar #WhatsHappeningInMaynmar

    Hi @satyanadella, do you use @Skype? To make a call is hard to find the dialer and to enter a number takes a long time. Is so slow! How could I help you? Maybe I can talk with your dev team.

    @gralefrit @mzdt @SteveDoherty1 Something that I think about - nobody actually records guests down the actual phone line anymore, even though modern mobile signals are often less glitchy than Skype ones and higher base quality than laptop mics. And it's really easy to do with the headphone jack on a smartphone!

    wow 😭 I'm really thinking about it, like, the internet as... well, sometimes 🌐 it just feels like my whole world crumbles like, MSN just stops shuts down, gets a new update, no longer does instant messenger. Forces it all into skype, and lots gets lost.1,200+? connections

    OK, from now until... whenever it's finished, I'm gonna be Radio-Silent/shutting my browser down for my interview with @itsamike. I wanna make sure Skype doesn't have ANY problems working for both of us. Everyone? Wish me luck because I think I'll need it.

    Say, TV companies? You don't have to use Skype/Zoom/Discord sound on pre-recorded interviews. We know it was done over whichever service, you don't need to prove it. Audacity's free, get people to bloody well use it.

    @ItsTheCostanza Nah. Honestly anything over 720 on cams isn't worth it. That's all Skype picks up and it bogs down the stream at 1080... Just not worth it lol

    I’m going to have to sit down and purchase some international call minutes on Skype or something. None of our phone plans have international calling. I’m not going to let that stop me, as I’d hope others would do the same for me if I were in a terrible situation.

    Anyone know of a streaming/screen sharing app other than Zoom or Skype specifically good for music producers and mixers that doesn’t run down CPU for online video calls?

    @revoltandestroy Probably not, there was that issue with the old Ford CVH engine but its probably not an oil issue. From what you're describing the most likley explanation is a badly hung exhaust. I'd have to hear it. Happy to Skype / teams at some point later this week.

    @fmbutt Voice quality will be monitored by the carriers for telephone. So no issue there. As for end to end applications, the protocol can be private, as they are with zoom, teams, Skype, WebEx ...etc. I can't use zoom in a WebEx meeting, fire example

    @pulte Daughter in person in over 3 years. Even if you can't help with 2k anything would be greatly appreciated. I miss her so much but it's so unbelievably expensive to fly round trip there 😥. I love being a father and it hurts my heart telling Lucy over Skype all the time that

    MY EX: I think we should break up... ME: I’m sorry. You’re breaking up... MY EX: Yes! I’m breaking up with you. ME: I can’t understand. You’re breaking up... MY EX: Let’s just try Skype. ME: There’s another guy?! Getting broken up with on Zoom is a real “Who’s On First?” huh?!
