    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

  • I_am_ludd Ned Ludd #shutthesites #PAYEveryworker (@I_am_ludd) reported

    @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.

    @shituserstories As a Skype for Business user: I want to skype to open a focus-grabbing alert when login fails So that: I can incorrectly enter my VPN password while engaged in a constant tug of war with Skype.

  • Gatekeeper5150 D-Railed News and Podcasts (@Gatekeeper5150) reported

    @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

  • ireadtwi (@ireadtwi) reported

    @iskcon I want to sell my Skype account for a reasonable price with the login iskcon. If you need this Skype account with the iskcon login, please contact me at the same Skype address

    Microsoft Exec: Hey, no one is using Skype. How do we fix that? Second Microsoft Exec: Should we make it an enormous pain in the *** every single time you log on? Microsoft Exec: GENIUS!

  • massenya Masenya (@massenya) reported

    @mmehelaKumbi I was unofficial "default IT" technicians. From showing them how to save on MS word, how to divert call, login on Skype. The hardest was to explain why their phones' space(8GB) keep on decreasing[coz of updates] and they can't update whatsapp. They should retire

  • kittymeowmou Awkward Penguin (@kittymeowmou) reported

    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.

  • XJ9LoL Joseph Sulenski (@XJ9LoL) reported

    @Zenivudu anyone making any type of noise about me helps. talking to rioters about the issue and asking if they can talk to me/inquir for me would be amazing. there was one rioter i used to talk to and even play games with but i dont remember his skype and he doesnt have twitter.

    @SashaBanksWWE @JohnCena Listen, Sasha, I'm getting angry with you right now, don't listen, and I'm trying to help you if I get to know you, Mercedes Varnado. Don't try to write to me on Skype Because you did not enter Skype or talk to men face to face

  • EwanToo Ewan Leith (@EwanToo) reported

    @AlexandreSieira It's terrible. On windows there's a "Skype for Business Basic" which is like a stripped back, but functional app, not sure if the same exists on macOS. The sooner Teams kills it, the better.

  • Aditya_Thakar09 Aditya Thakar #StaySafe (@Aditya_Thakar09) reported

    @samuelbgoodwin I can help you . Let's discuss. Please DM or connect me on Skype: jbsolutions.sales2.

  • VivianDaSilva Vivian Da Silva (@VivianDaSilva) reported

    @delphine_x_ @ellieblovesyou THIS!! I mean, sure, if you make ENOUGH, you’d better report it but you know these movers are out here taking money thru Venmo & Skype. I gave a guy $40 to mount a TV, no problem. You think he reported that?? That whole “gig-economy” is shady, if you ask me. 😒

  • JessDraws_JD JessDraws_ (@JessDraws_JD) reported

    @Knowlo_original I’ve shut the PC down and walked away before I lose it, so I don’t know for sure. There are quite a few, but most of them are “information” with only a few “warning” or “errors” thrown in. And most of the errors are from an issue with Skype.

  • scottmcmorrow Scott McMorrow 😎🐈☕ (@scottmcmorrow) reported

    @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

  • xTheRealXyrithx TheRealXyrith (@xTheRealXyrithx) reported

    @NyanNyanners @Iron_Mouse I will then watch through the wall radar TV replacing Skype of anyone who then in rendered in any image of their choosing while I choose 765 to calm me down because the CIA let me practice willing radiology and take a rocket to their house.

    @JulesRPG Right? This is just...watching a game on TV. You can do that over skype no problem!!!

  • enkzilla Enky says WHAT! Marthas Union. (@enkzilla) reported

    And then she complained about us using the kettle after 10pm because "she had to get up at 6am"... When she was on Skype with her family until 1am practically nightly and none of us made that a problem or would have told her not to because we weren't fvcking monsters.

    plus virtual dating SUCKS, even without connection issues, trying to flirt, hell even just have a flowing conversation with someone on zoom or skype (or oh god people still use Facebook messenger) is less than fun, and dating should be fun...
