    Would like to congratulate @LargeBarstool on being the only one putting out exceptional blogs. I get the expanding business to accommodate a new crowd/generation, but my god this blog selection has gone down the tube. Give me Skype rundowns and poor Dave back @barstoolsports

  • DrMKuisma Mikko Kuisma (@DrMKuisma) reported

    @JarMa76 That was my own initial feeling too but the patterns are too clear. With our previous really bad DSL connection I had rarely problems and with the new fibre optic it started well but in the last week this has happened with every meeting whether in Zoom/Skype...

  • MistressEnvy3 Mistress Envy (@MistressEnvy3) reported

    If my initial is too high for you, that's a problem for you, not me. You can send less and be ignored Available for sessions and **** rates #FinD #KIK PALOMAENVY #SKYPE

  • bleckerer jude (@bleckerer) reported

    @Cxptaingrayson I've known folks for over a decade entirely through online voice chats, migrating from teamspeak to skype to discord, and they still act baffled and offended when we get irritated that their dog is barking directly into their microphone and they don't seem to think it's a problem

  • Findomatcha Matcha💜🍇 (@Findomatcha) reported

    cant believe i got asked to do a skype session for their disney+ login like i don’t already have that **** uhm

  • InsolLawMan Mike Pavitt 💙 (@InsolLawMan) reported

    @paulddp Yes we don’t use Skype except for hearings. Years of chronic underinvestment in the courts service have left it only just functional outside the major centres and it is only adaptable up to a point.

  • Lucy_NAVCA Lucy Straker (@Lucy_NAVCA) reported

    Somebody somewhere once said Skype in my general direction and now every time I turn on my laptop it tries to login. No Skype, no. Go over there and play with MySpace and Friends Reunited.

  • tynolisrel Tino (@tynolisrel) reported

  • PrimeBane PrimeBane the Donair Monkey King of the South™ (@PrimeBane) reported

    @Monkeyslick Very much so. We're super close to killing ours off. The biggest issue will be making sure any place that REALLY needs to contact us has the cell phone numbers. Originally, we kept it for again parents. But since we moved the inlaws to skype, there's little reason to keep it.

  • chanflux lucy (@chanflux) reported

  • darth_na Lyndon NA (Darth Autocrat) (@darth_na) reported

    @AddyPottle What about things like Skype, Zoom etc.? Radio stations? Most cinema showings? (Similar issues for visually impaired) There's whole chunks of "life" that aren't inclusive. The question is - how do we correct such things? >>>

  • iambhadz18 b. 🍹 (@iambhadz18) reported

    @SKYserves Did this several time. As I can hear in my mind, have you tried to turning it off and on again. No changes. Skype calls is not working as well as using tools to scrape website data which is important to my job. 😢😭

    @shmagney @AGuyWhoDraws Nah they put the nail in the coffin on east coast animation when Disney shut down the Florida studio. Probably thought it was ‘too hard’ to run two studios from different locations. Maybe back then it was but now we have zoom and Skype so ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
