@richard_bloke I used to have the green light Skype problem, I don’t worry now because I know I’m productive so if it goes “away” I don’t worry. I used to work for a company that would monitor key strikes of a keyboard for productivity purposes.... was stupid.

@Mampumi @simamkeleD Eish is it possible to drive with someone you trust & then plan strategic pit stops? Or if you do fly don't take off your mask. Also have supplies to boost your immune system etc. It's tricky / help them set up WhatsApp video call / zoom Skype & do stuff whilst online together.

@DarrylBirt Was management's idea to help stop the spread. They now realize it works out better this way and it's cheaper. Most patient concerns or exchanges are usually done via phone anyway. They use Skype too.. had online visit myself this year.

@Slate The voice often does not work during most of call and when you call the providers to complain it takes 30+ mins to get them to pick up! If you are on a pay per min phone plan it is not worth asking for a refund. They make money for no service! Skype would be better and cheaper.

@haesleinhuepf my deepest condolences.I feel with you. Iam stuck here with using my phone to tether wifi for my pc, and everytime my phone uses the wifi itself for receiving a skype message, the service on my pc crashes and i have to hard reset my pc.

@anchor @Draco_Evolve Thank you for the help. We used Skype instead and I reported the issue to Anchor Support. However, now it is not converting my Skype video to audio for Anchor, it just shows “extracting audio from video” on the Anchor editing screen then it disappears. Any idea why?

Now it does. 🤔 I don't know why I keep my mobile at all. I mostly use it as a Kindle anyway. I chat with friends on Skype or Discord not my phone. Even my dentist emails me. All I get on my phone these days...when I have service...are bloody telemarketers or scammers. haha 2x

@MissMixi So I've had a similar issue before. iirc skype save logs locally yes and erases them on the application after a certain time has passed. I do remember that there is a third party application (or a first party it has been so long.) that you can use to retrieve that information.

@Socksoff1 So in theory I could travel myself and keep up with them through Skype. I've nothing else to tie me down. I'm getting frustrated with my job so once the inheritance is through I could maybe become a digital nomad. Don't know tho, it's all pie in the sky stuff. 2/2

@hnshah Skype on OSX 10.9.5... APPLE+Q won't quit, CTRL+F2 won't access the menu. Quick preview of an image with spacebar in the "Open" dialog box when adding images to a conversation, results in the box losing focus. Option to remember your login, never remembers it. I could go on...

@OperativeXRay As a Nashvillian, I thank you. We are having more problems than most know. No cell phone service. No 911. Internet disrupted. Some Credit card machines disrupted. I have bought Skype...yes, Skype, in case of emergency or to call family not on call apps. It’s affecting many places

Skype sessions are ALWAYS 80 tokens/minute. This is the cost of a “true private” on MFC. I will not negotiate. If you can’t pay me with tokens and schedule on MFC, again, that’s not my problem.

As of now I’m not doing Skype sessions due to internet issues. I plan on still selling video clips. So make requests for the clips. $10 per video unless you make a lot of requests then we may have additional fees.

@lucy_dre Jordan was TERRIBLE. She would Skype me just to keep from having to go to bed with him. Also one day she called me scared bc Jordan and his friend barged in her house while Isaac was in the tub and was screaming at her.
