Sarah, Your Living Nightmare🩸
(@SarahDemoness) reported
Yesterday, on a Skype call, my father had the audacity to tell me that I should go to chef school. I had to smile down an explosion of anger and betrayal. I was and still am furious. I hate how they squashed my dreams and ambitions.

@DavidHodgettMP @andrewbogut Prisoners weren’t allowed visits for a year. Instead they were given tablets so they could have Skype video calls with their family and friends... I don’t see how anybody has a problem with that.

@RedditEugene @renaud_pdx can you get the word out to Brenton Gicker of Cahoots if possible? He’s a friend who offered to help me get my passport replacement in August, 2019- until Rowan interfered & harassed him by impersonating me on Skype

Kinda wondering if I should see about checking up on people I've not seen since Skype/MSN/AIM. I know I used to have a public account that everyone could just "add" me on, and a lot I've not seen since closing down my skype (and also ending my SpiderdaSquirrel account)

@KeepFriendMagic @AndreaLibman @SunniWestbrook We’re moving to Teams and it’s terrible. Worse than Skype, which managed to be worse than Lync. I’ve spent hours turning off notifies so it stops popping things up over the stuff I’m actually trying to do.

@besttrousers It does seem like a much smaller technological leap than embedding cameras in monitors, but maybe people are working on that. As for the camera on a boom arm, it's pretty okay? The biggest problem is zoom/skype giving me less-than-ideal views of speakers.

@tuIugaaraq I know this might be a stupid question, but have you tried seeking professional help? Not sure how affordable /available it would be for you (and obviously not everyone is up for it) but it does help for some people. Even if you have to do the appointments via Zoom/Skype call idk

@Femi_Sorry @BillHanage What an irony. After endlessly chuntering on that Britain's Covid is all down to one man.. Boris.. Overlooking or just deliberately refusing to consider the fact that Boris & gvt would have acted on advice of experts. Here he is demanding we watch his Skype call with a nobody

@RealHintKeeper Admittedly I don't know how many people are around but you could do it on line (skype discord, etc. , but maybe a wake with friends and found family might help. Tell favorite stories share favorite pieces of art or pictures. I don't know. I'm so sorry for all that's happened.

@Robo_Strange Kinda? I went to broadcast school for a year once, but that was before digital. So here's what I've discovered: composite tracks like the kind you get from skype and discord suck, and the mixing on them is terrible. not good when you want to attempt to do a professional show

Many of the proofs I had are from long deleted Messenger, Facebook and Skype accounts, and many are things that were never written down, just happened. I cut contact with everyone that did not unfriend that bastard too, so I do not have support from these "old friends"

Love seeing a syllabus that says you'll be docked for minor grammatical errors because success requires good writing LITTERED WITH TYPOS Fall dates, not Spring One line references "Skype" but we use Teams "CVOID-19"

@JTAC005 @AndreaLibman MS Teams has a terrible habit of sucking up way too much CPU until your laptop’s cooking fan can be heard in the next room while bloating it’s memory usage then exploding into shards-of-aluminum-slivers confetti (especially the Mac version). Still not as bad as Skype though.
