    @SkypeSupport Hi. I'm trying to set up Skype calling on some Alexa devices I've bought my children, but when I attempt to sign in to Skype as them, I'm told that it's not possible as they are a child. As they have Skype on their own PCs, this seems ridiculous, is there a fix?

    Can we tell Kevin Hart to leave us Black people alone specifically black women since we're so terrible, and white people are so much better, despite the fact that he's been giving us a subpar product for years now look at him going out like blackberry and Skype

    @RachelBitecofer My local hasn't had any layoffs or furloughs yet. We've worked at making sure that doesn't happen for as long as we can and that the FFCRA is followed. We have had a couple of issues like trying to use Skype for Business as a time-keeping tool and a couple other isolated things.

    How we are conditioned affects our outlook on everything. I'm sure no one would find a problem with a work interview over Skype or Zoom but if it's over say, WhatsApp or IG you might wonder if the interviewer is serious for a bit

    @YZYPZY My nephews can't come over cause we just went back to lock down so I've gotta Skype it for them

    @PMPRecruit @pmprecruitment someone tell me why my son did not receive his Skype interview when scheduled? He applied for an Amazon Job in Leyland. He did not receive a call and his login says he is not being taken forward,he was a no show. He has emailed 3 times with no reply

  • thelilocarer Richard J. (@thelilocarer) reported

    @EirinKidsBooks Yes that’s probably wise. I only recently got the SE, but I may need something a little bigger as I’m doing a lot of Skype and FaceTime for work and a larger screen might be kinder on my tired eyes. Getting a new iPhone is like Alice going down the rabbit hole!

  • Moiqueen garmfield (@Moiqueen) reported

    Ive become a cryptid because 90% of the time I'd rather be sewing or watching educational shows than play video games and use social media. When you stare at a computer screen all day and frantically try to solve complex issues via skype all day you just want to go off the grid

  • VijayDhatrak25 vJ.D! (@VijayDhatrak25) reported

    @malpani Skype screwed it up with the very confusing login and sign up mechanism. Signing up on microsoft is tough than rocket science for me

  • imstepheng_ vivi (@imstepheng_) reported

    @DannyBirman look, I can explain. ya know, your average boring friday afternoon.... just scrolling down the timeline and you see someone bring up Amir Khan's skype incident. Me, bored and interested, went on a hunt to find the video... Was I disappointed? No. But I am scarred.

    @notfittoserve @davemacladd Appreciate your concern but I already get paid for consultations as part of my NHS settlement. Doesn't help though. Get better help talking on Skype to my friends overseas. You yourself mentioned anti-vax. Fact is therefore we won't lose the restrictions unless they're persuaded

    i will forever be thankful to that person, sadly im not sure where they are since we lost contact after they left the tumblr scene and i lost my login to skype

  • omelasif somebody call me right one⁷ (@omelasif) reported

    @blondetaejin You are right that it’s necessary for sanity. Part of the problem is my counsellor can’t do in-person appointments atm and I don’t have the privacy for Skype or whatever. It just feels self-indulgent to complain right now.

    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.

    @LordKissypants The cool thing about using a notebook mainly for writing (and I'm assuming email/skype) is that you don't need a beast of a machine, so it's not going to break the bank. I have struggled to find a machine better than my ThinkPad. Great quality, reliable and awesome service.

    @ProbablyWyatt Oh mannnn that was forever ago! I dunno, I don't think I can even login to my old MS Live or Skype accounts anymore haha

  • OGTwit3 Now contains silly mustache! (@OGTwit3) reported

    verified so that we could donate. The account never created the source. They just kept begging for money for food. I still check that Skype account sometimes. I had trouble sleeping for days after that one. Still do, really. The para-social relationships created online are not a-

    @mindstatex It's integrated with the Skype app. Haven't experimented but a temporary fix to remove might be uninstall the Skype app and try installing an older version. Thing is lots of installers these days just point to the mother ship somewhere and you'll get the latest version anyway

    @Locker205 Skype is a terrible program in this regard.

    @florian_krammer skype crashes constantly, Chime is ok, Zoom slows VPN down a lot. I much prefer Teams.
