@1LegendaryWest @SarahKSilverman 3/4 all safeguarded by the exact same or higher stds employed now when staff interact w/ residents. This is only if the facility has not made available a trained staff member who can help the residents under the proven-safe conditions & get them going on zoom, Skype, etc.

I spent over an hour on skype with my mom so she can help me make homemade mashed potatoes for dinner. I really didn’t need help I just miss her and want her to feel important. 💕

@KyleCranmer Good question that I’m not sure the answer to. The only thing I’ll note is that I’ve had other applications crash without a problem from Ubuntu. Only Skype has managed to bring down the whole OS repeatedly.

@PatrickFreyne1 I have a theory that it's because you can't gauge people's reactions or even know if you're talking to one person or on loud speaker and secretly you're being laughed at. Many people that would never dream. Of a phone call would have no problem with zoom or Skype

I have been desperately trying to figure out how to help others in our covid situation but not much I can do. What I can do is be there...If you need to talk or just need an ear, I am here. Stranger or friend doesn't matter. Zoom/Skype/FB/DM whatever

@StoreAwesome1 maybe their Skype was broken and the ‘planned’ visit was essential to say hello... 😷

I am not proud that I was not able to help with the laptop & Skype setup for this interview, his brother did that. The only thing I contributed was yelling “Find your light, though!” from the kitchen. 😂

This would all be done remotely, through Zoom/Skype/Facetime, and no specific hours are necessary. The hospital is looking for a deep bench of volunteers they can call on during those moments when they need this sort of help.

@GavinGiovannoni I’ve been asking my MS nurse and neurologist this for years. It would be great to Skype or FaceTime etc, it would also help the NHS financially and MSers dragging themselves to appointments👍

I am currently thinking about how the sads are starting to kick in again because everything is terrible and im probably going to end up having my first big cry in front of my therapist on a Skype session next week. I should be sleeping and not having an existential crisis.

Just had a Skype quiz where we all wrote 2 sets of 10 questions. Forgot to factor in what a bad loser my mum is. I may not make out of this lock down alive considering how much she lost to me by...

@ammienoot For me, there is a curious problem that isn’t technical. It having to focus on conversation in Skype, the board, the Twitter, and trying to speak good - oh and there’s also imaging how it all sounds to listeners. Sometimes it’s a bit 2 much 4 a fried little mind like mine
