    @wirednot I would need to see some jitter plots that you can generate from doing fast pings. I hear all the time claims that Skype work fine while Zoom doesn't. When I further press the user for detail, they admit that Skype is also having issues. I would need to see hard data.

    @vaekol You're mid but I'm down pretty bad so here it goes: I would swim up the Amazon with a 45 lb dumbell attached to my ******* using ellen degeneres' ***** as my only source of oxygen if It meant I could have a food date with you over skype on dial up internet connection

    It's 2013. You're listening to Fix You - Coldplay on repeat. Your hopeful lonely *** has Facebook open to check out messages. You and the boys hop on a Skype call to play some Minecraft. Life was simpler. Life kinda sucked tbh. **** that.

    I'm scheming with my student's mother to lie to my boss to get her money back. There was a Skype error that took up 75% of the time of the lesson to fix. I don't trust him to refund because he cares more about money than customer satisfaction.

    Im a nonthreatening feminist boy, come talk to me on Skype! talk to me on skype about your problems as a woman i sympathize i’m taking womens studies. I took women’s studies I know what ‘systematic’ means.

    ... the cat was not an issue with Skype, but with software more hidden and fundamental in the computer itself. It is installed by Dell when the computer is put together, he found, which explains why it would come up not just on Skype but on Zoom ...

  • HelloFromMarcus Marcus Green (@HelloFromMarcus) reported

    For some reason skype updated today and popped up on my screen, I actually said "hello old timer!" to it before closing it down and using zoom.

  • shackletonjones N Shackleton-Jones (@shackletonjones) reported

    Is anyone ever going to fix Skype or are we all just secretly hoping it will die?

  • robsmallshire Robert Smallshire (@robsmallshire) reported

    @PerryGibson_ I appreciate this is a co-ordination problem a much as anything else. Code clubs could choose to use tools which work on these more-accessible platforms. I have no idea why they chose Skype of all things. But here we are.

    THE SKYPE EMOJI GIFS HELP ME

  • mirohundak Miro Hundak (@mirohundak) reported

    @GiryaGirl @AutSciPerson Compression won't help with clipping if the mic gain is too high at recording level. Communication apps like Skype and similar have auto-gain as a default option for mic recording, which can prevent clipping, so there's no good reason why a game couldn't have similar feature.

  • _Rbot_ Rooben.avi (@_Rbot_) reported

    Im in a skype call called actual Mishas please help me

  • FerraroMikef29 Mike Ferraro (@FerraroMikef29) reported

    @SquawkAlley What system do you use for online interviews? Watching Affirm interview and audio is terrible. Sounds like Skype from 8 years ago. Do you do pre-interview testing?

  • a_rahimus Rahimus (@a_rahimus) reported

    Lots of rightful criticism against Skype for having a head start in the online calling space & still being lacklustre. But to me, Skype is now more an international *phone* calling service than online conferencing. It’s great at calling mobiles & landlines for decent prices.
