    @stevewraith @shaunattwood @AshMeikle Hoping this was recorded prior to the lockdown, can't help but think it's a bit of a piss take to travel all the way to Attwood when this could have been done over skype in the current circumstances.

    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.

  • niemelasaraaa Sara Niemela (@niemelasaraaa) reported

    More American expat questions: how do you deal with the US phone number situation? I have a Skype number, but some services won’t accept it. Do you have a “real” number service?

  • davidszweduik David (Usually Dave) Szweduik (@davidszweduik) reported

    Hey @TheChrisFerrell, podcast question for ya. The recent Windows 10 update seems to have made Google Chrome the cause of the annoying "Skype always shifting mic volume" issue, but of course there is no setting to stop Chrome from doing that that we could find. Any ideas?

    @inuyamatadatomo One of my friend used to talked to you on skype and gave me the run down about you and I don't even think you're the worst furry or Housamo fan. You're just really chuuni.

  • StephenRayGarza Stephen Ray Garza (@StephenRayGarza) reported

    @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.

    @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

  • HockleyBear HockleyBear (@HockleyBear) reported

    @wazzaster @GiddeeAunt @WestminsterWAG So should wildlife documentaries be filmed by Skype or Zoom? How do you expect to show what the issues are if you don’t go there? Idiot 🙄

  • Epi_D_Nique Dominique Heinke (@Epi_D_Nique) reported

    @VteachConsulti1 @PENNINGBOOKS I would think that trying to just "do" in-person school via skype or something of that nature would be terrible. But there are so many ways to adapt that can make it great. Having done some work with graduate students virtually pre-pandemic I know there are ways to do it well!

  • SylviaSantosCam bebe (@SylviaSantosCam) reported

    I can’t login to my Skype I might have to make a new one 🥲🥲🥲

  • victoria_doh victorydoh 🇪🇺❤ FBPE (@victoria_doh) reported

    @DrJessTaylor I had a conversation today with a student (via Skype) about how wearing he found it to get up, and go straight on the computer, and just do that day after day, no end in sight. Motivation is a real issue right now.

  • jadedjakuzure Jade (@jadedjakuzure) reported

    Ask her to screenshare through Skype instead. She shares her main screen only. The application with the error is on a different screen so I ask her to drag it to the main screen.

  • mechadyne Mechadyne (@mechadyne) reported

    Ok...sending out the Bat Signal here. Does anyone know OBS well enough to help me with low/mid-tier bullshit? Every tutorial I come across is either too specific, or stuff I already know. I got/can get Skype, and I have Discord. I ask because my Metroid Zero Mission stream...

  • moody06 dawn mahmood (@moody06) reported

    @skype does anyone have the number for customer service for Skype. Been trying to cancel my account for months.

  • imPatrickT patrick. (@imPatrickT) reported

    @hussaintausif anyone can mimic the functionality of clubhouse on Skype, discord, zoom, google hangouts, even FaceTime. CH has terrible moderation tools as well. I think people want a stage. its the "global conference" aspect that makes it work.
