    @lekrot @RuneLinding @carlbildt It was for an evening course in Spanish this spring that I tried to make Teams work. There was a conflict with my Skype account (Microsoft had bought Skype). Or maybe the problem was that I used a Mac. Very cumbersome, but more secure I guess.

    Turns out I get blocked when I try to call #mileg numbers. From my cell phone and from a Skype number. Seems pretty egregious that a constituent can’t call their state senator. @SenEdMcBroom, any way you can help change that?

    @N805DN @OhMDee @chrisltd ...what Forbes dude is getting wrong. guessing its something like, yeah bro, Skype tanks your battery life, use a service other people use in 2020 instead of abandonware that's encoding video in an emulated CPU, instead of a real video encoder on the actual chipset?

  • Fydsy Dr J Gorski-Mescir 🇪🇺🇨🇵🇱🇺 (@Fydsy) reported

    Saturday night, I'm in SW France, @MmedeBeauvoir is in Luxembourg City...so we Skype....and spend almost the whole time sharing a screen to choose fabrics for the restored footstool and curtains. letting down our Eurotrash wankers image somewhat!

  • ZiadFazel Ziad /- 2 m -/ Fazel (@ZiadFazel) reported

    @jonathanwhudson Essentially dumbing down an iMac to be a big mouse-driven tablet with one Home Screen of big icons like YouTube, Safari with Favourites I’ve set up, FaceTime and/or Skype, Music, Photos, Weather, maybe TV....

    Some of you may remember MSN Messenger, or Windows Live Messenger. It was the king of IM before Skype and Discord came along. The program started back in Windows 95 as MSN Messenger, which was a free service that came with your Hotmail account.

    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.

  • greatrighthope Great Right Hope (@greatrighthope) reported

    @rally4resources All those people that zoom & skype their work are about to find out, when the economy goes down, there will be no reason to zoom anymore. The whole thing is about crash...we'll be forced into the "reset". Insane. Our forefathers fought & died so Dr Tam can take our country away.

  • DrJSherrington Jamie Sherrington #TeamTable19 (@DrJSherrington) reported

    Which would you prefer: Lockdown over Christmas (zoom/Skype Christmases) but lock down ends sooner; Or Release lockdown for 5 days over Christmas, but you must extend it for 28days at least? #lockdown #Lockdown2

  • Daethian Daethian (@Daethian) reported

    Qvc business representatives all call in via Skype to talk about their product. They all wear air pods and they all sound terrible. I hate it. @KeithMalley

  • TheGeekFilesAU The Geek Files (@TheGeekFilesAU) reported

    It has progressed through the years, until in October 31, 2014 when Microsoft acquired Skype and decided to make that their IM client, and shutdown MSN Messenger. Some MSN Messenger fans tried to recreate the service to back how it was back in the day.
