@Enichan I use all the ridges when I type. Ridges are made to show potential. Just like when I used skype... Fell down from that service, life is consequential.

If you're a mutual of mine on skype you may have recieved an apology message. This comes from three years of thinking about old friendships and the problems I caused within them. If you didn't recieve one and feel like you should've please pm me.

@untitleduser For one of my shows Discord with each person recording their own audio natively via audacity/a back-up with the Discord record bot (it sucks and is only for emergencies). For the other, Skype with the native call recorder (never had an issue with it).

So, figured I'd give MS365 personal a try. Phew... lots to complain about. Went all-out with a custom domain which was SUPER painful and confusing. They've got a huge problem separating the UX of free/paid users. And apparently you can't disable receiving spam calls on Skype?

@GreatKatzby03 @atRiskyVenture Been down this road before when I was a member of several private trading groups on Skype. Not practical for a whole host of reasons which I am too tired to get into again here. But I appreciate the suggestions/sentiment :)

With all that endless video conference calls, Apple may introduce a global MUTE MIC hotkey, which works independently of the VC app (Zoom, Teams, Skype,..) and shuts your voice down effectively in #macOS. I have tested a dozen of solutions. None of which works as expected. Ideas?

@virginmedia Everything is exactly the same. I pay for 200mb, I only have 2 consoles running on WiFi and one on a LAN throught the powerline booster, and constant issues. Struggling to have a Skype call go through smoothly. Virgin is meant to be the best. Its certainly not reliable.

@TheRock has the video update down pat. I wish I could jump on a Skype call with the team sweaty, shirtless, and out of breathe and provide a big project update then say mahalo and eat 45000 calories.

@CapitalOne CC was compromised & canceled early Dec. You sent new card to my US mail address; never arrived. Sent a 2nd direct to me in Malaysia, never arrived. Nearly 3 months, hours on the phone via Skype and I’m still cardless. Mail not working, need courier. Help!

@rafrasenberg What is to like about Microsoft when their main strategy is, buying someone else’s service or software, ie. entire company and sell it as theirs? 225 companies in total were purchased by MS so far, including Skype, LinkedIn, Nokia & GitHub.

@ClayTravis If staff is so scared to go back, and the science shows it is safe for kids... why not have a projector in the class for the teacher to be remote and do a skype or zoom?? Then have a 'hall-monitor'(s) wearing PPE, walking up and down checking on the kids?
