    @James_AG1 @TheFantasyMoose No, its about limiting the amount of time it is wreaking havoc. Australia is almost 100% open and back to normal now. Short term economic pain = long term gain. Also, there are programs that help to limit instances of what you have posted. Zoom calls/skype/whatever.

    Yeah you know they are the one when you’ve been hyper fixating all day and your brain is fried and you don’t want to move talk or interact w/anyone but you can’t stop stimming bc you’re stoked to Skype them despite your brain completely shutting down w/ everything else

  • Schroedinger99 Dr Mike Ward (@Schroedinger99) reported

    6/ I couldn't help noticing that, at some stage (PP provide no date for the transaction so it could be years ago) Skype had taken over $100 from my PP account!

    @idfc0921 Ah I see, what I would suggest is calling our customer service team and making them aware of this. The other option would be sending us a letter but calling will be a lot quicker. - Billy From abroad +44 2476 842 099 / 24/7 or Skype - +44800111777 / 24/7

    a coworker’s status on Skype is “electricity outage, minimal availability” and I’ve never stolen an idea so quickly

  • WBacket Wicker Backet (@WBacket) reported

    @Badkidgalaxy @FortniteStatus Who tf is "Skype?" A calling service?

  • OzojuN Ozoju Nera (@OzojuN) reported

    @IGN I was randomly smashing some keys around on Skype with a few gaming pals and ozjnera came up. Thought it sounded good enough for an username. Went with it for 11 years now, never had a problem creating an account

  • SClickfo Steven (@SClickfo) reported

    Calling Lego Customer service is depressing because it sounds like Skype for Biz and M$ will never get to Cisco quality, and that's really sad when you can admit Cisco will always be better...

  • grizzlybr Cognitive Dissonance is a “thing” (@grizzlybr) reported

    @susannareid100 @MattHancock My mum has early onset Alzheimer’s I’ve not hugged or touched her hand since March. She is stuck in a care home thinking I’ve abandoned her. She does not speak so an i pad or Skype doesn’t help. Our hearts are breaking everyday. Who feels sorry for our elders in care??? Not Matt!

  • Adam_Olivero 🎮 🕹️ Adam Olivero 🎦🎬 (@Adam_Olivero) reported

    @Adamski I've had this happen with both Skype recordings and Open Broadcast Software. Running it through Handbrake or Avidemux seems to fix it. I've asked @markspen and @RippleTraining for their RippleLive on Friday as to why it happens and the proper fix.

  • KrzyDu KrzyDu (@KrzyDu) reported

    @SkypeSupport How to make user‘s mood message specific to node given Skype instance operates on instead of being user-account-specific? Would help in months of lot of home office 😠

  • ni_ni_________ 🅿️ (@ni_ni_________) reported

    My manager need to fix her tone through skype, we’ve never met in person but she be giving “Karen” real bad & im 2 seconds away from contacting HR

  • xenoveritas Xenoveritas (@xenoveritas) reported

    @BriannaWu @Microsoft So many replies seem to forget that Skype and Lync aka “Skype for Business” are separate products. Yes, Skype for Business is being replaced by Teams. It’s not Skype. Microsoft Teams: “has encountered a problem and needs to be restarted.”

  • KathrynSeabrook Kathryn Seabrook (@KathrynSeabrook) reported

    @virginmedia Broadband problem. Not connected, then when I did connect it’s slow and keeps dropping out and zoom/Skype very juddery if I can even connect to them at all. I just wanted to talk to someone about it, I couldn’t wait any longer on the phone.

  • theoriginaledi Your ol' pal Edi (@theoriginaledi) reported

    @SkypeSupport Skype can't "see" my camera on my home OR work laptops/networks. It says "No device found". Both cameras work great in all other programs, including Zoom, Google Meet/Hangouts, YouTube, etc. I've searched all over & can't find a solution. Can you help? :-(
