@jathko @ianlasch This is all so weird. So weird. I don't want to try to do this in tweets, but if you ever want to Skype I'm down for it

@WisdomToothDog @72stroopwafels Yes! That happened to me on my first few Skype lessons with a tutor (after a few months of hard study to get some basics down). I'd just go blank! Or be so focused on the few earlier words I recognized that I'd miss the rest of the sentence... So stressful!

Going from gaming, streaming, and using discord at the same time no problem in college, to having my skype call drop 1617372773 times with Gracen, and having my games rubber band til i die really shows me how spoiled I was with LSU's internet

We're fixing to have a Skype interview with a @UTexasMcCombs accounting student. Fingers are crossed that we don't embarrass ourselves again with silly technical issues this time!

@theboydigital .... But then @Microsoft acquired @Skype and the product quality went down the toilet, leaving a massive need in the market for @zoom_us I reckon the same could happen with @LinkedIn well for those that don't need recruiters and outsource dev studios spamming you.

@OfficeSupport Skype for business Admin center isn’t working well either as I can’t assign service numbers to the appropriate accounts.

@xtofl @soylentgraham @ederstoico @rick_west8 I learned that synchronous tutoring provided the most benefit. A quick 1 on 1 skype/hangouts call and a walkthrough why someone uses a given approach, what are the upsides of alternate solutions, or brainstorm to quickly unblock someone stuck on a complex problem

@PeculiarBaptist @Jonesy_Wales @ClayTravis @ColinCowherd It’s not callers, it’s guests with bad Skype connections (something I mentioned on-air before.) But Colin never had problems with Skype until this week

Looks like resource accounts isn’t functional in Teams admin center either @Office365. Can’t assign service numbers in the Skype admin center too.
