@TheRandyKetch *She swallows down her feelings and tries to dry her eyes discreetly.* I'm always with you, Randy. *She points at her heart.* Besides, it's not like we won't see each other again. Can't forget phones and skype exist. I just... I can't be the reason you don't find happiness.

@JamesTateHill I agree with what everyone is saying here, and what you are saying, about striking a balance. I will 100% skype into a friend's class because they've assigned my story, or issues of the lit mag my students edit. But I would want to get paid to be a visiting writer for the uni.

**** that 5 person ****. If you don't NEED that person in your home for the next 4 weeks, skype. 1 person per household out to the stores and go once a week if you can help it. Think Defcon April 2020. It's now or wait till summer to get this under control.

@ChrisHoodAU Skype could just ‘go down’ a lot, and teams seems to be much more stable. Would really suck if it ‘went down’ at critical points like 9am in the morning so everyone would have to use teams.

@sundisease @carllorthner If you need help with the processors or sth let me know! I've been going with asus and acer Laptops in the past btw and never had any problems (except from my mic not working in skype but i think that's a ME problem for dropping my LT too often)

@NFGmart Bubbles or not, I am not letting my brother come down to see mum. She is 81 and it’s just not worth the risk. She can Skype him and talk to him face to face on that. Boris wants to be father ******* Christmas, instead he’ll be the Grinch who killed all the grandparents.

@Bratbaby1701 I just don't like it because of the way that people communicate. I liked skype & I like zoom because you just talk like you're sitting down together talking. With TeamTalk, at least the TeamTalk I remember, you have to press or lock buttons.

So three households at Christmas about this, limit the numbers have the rest of the family on Skype or Zoom, only have them people around who are most important to you, it would keep the virus in the box & not put our hard work down the drain leading into 2021 #Retweet

Though last night's was more bizarre than scary? I was playing golf while interviewing a man who claimed to have helped create Wario, we sat down and I started recording a skype call with him even though he was sitting next to me? Then a tornado happened.

@gringozuela @Tpofiev @LLinWood How inconsiderate does a father have to be that humans have opinions that differ from them that he must stoop down to mocking intelligence? Lemme know if you get zoom, Skype, or a telephone with which YOU CAN COMMUNICATE.

Is there any video chat service that allows recording video from all parties before it's actually streamed to the other side? I know I can record calls with zoom/skype/teams on my side of course but the video quality will be contingent to the internet connection.
