When she was about 3/4 yrs old he promised to video call her every wednesday. He did good for like three weeks and then started ghosting and making excuses. For months my kid would sit on the stairs near the study waiting to hear that skype call that never came. Broke me down.

Sometime in the last six months or so, the controls for Skype/Zoom/Team meetings disappeared from the iPhone Home Screen. I have to unlock to unmute and talk now. Super annoying on my walks. Where can I fix this?

@BandemicDave @metpoliceuk Have to remember Robbie has done his little silly talk shows via ZOOM/Skype whatever he uses from home and watchalong online with DT when they came up with symptoms! He clearly thinks hes special when hes proven he can do this online! @YouTube also need to bring Robbie down!

@olabini @xotoxot I followed the history of Wire. Originally it was meant as a replacemnet for Skype. Later it became a chat service, encrypted with only a few logs. Snowden favored Signal and the majority of the privacy scene followed this, Wire did not get a chance. Therefore they sold it.

Skype really is a trash application. Oh you don't have audio I know the fix, mute everything. If everything is muted no audio is a expected :)

@JackPosobiec Good luck! We tried to warn everyone what was happening in #Pennsylvania, no one wanted to listen as we’ve been locked down by our dictator @TomWolfPA, watching our loved ones die via Skype, not allowed to attend their funerals, and watching businesses crumble while state....

Event viewer shows errors with Skype (which I don't even use) There's also several attempts to install windows updates it seems, and when I check, it appears to be up to date.

@Manalyzer131 You lot here and in the corner also help make it more bearable :) I haven't been able to hug n kiss any of my kids since March 2020 - that's the worst part. SKYPE calls just don't cut it. Thank gawd for the internet and Netflix though, it's all keeping me sane 🥰

What I've learned taking a million Zoom/Skype/Google conference calls this past year: If I pull my COVID hair up I always get a lot of "oh wow" type comments. But if I leave it down they either say nothing or even say that I'm looking well! I figured it would be the opposite!

@NilkadN Windows updates are basically malware at this point, last year an update secretly installed Skype and put it on auto-start, it also tried to force me to use Edge, and Windows updates also just like to **** up with my settings and cause driver issues.

In almost all skype/zoom interviews on news or podcasts there's always books in shelves in the background, this psychological hack to prime me into thinking the person whos speaking is smart is not working. with me you start from 0

@christianp @k_houston_math ...how or having the equipment, which has improved immeasurably. (Like how I used to hate when someone said 'let's meet over Skype' because it always meant 30 mins of tech problems, but not now everyone is good at it.)

(@tiff_higgins) reported
@GloriaDickie I don't. Same here--they'll even send me a Zoom link. Now I say video is not necessary, could we do a regular call, I'll call them, and if they have privacy issues we could do Skype as a regular call. They all have agreed to the regular phone call once I started that approach
