@dancingtreefrog @Skype They emailed me about possible charges, and they were mostly from either Nigeria or Ghana. But there were suddenly 20 attempts. I did love the Bahamian Passport Office attempt. Since I have a credit union, they use a third-party service for emergency card cancellations.

@ChristosMatskas @Skype My fear is having single login for these apps makes all of them a single point of hack. I use multiple machines and apps for different purposes. For example one machine needs to be really secure that I don’t want to have anyone access to, ever.

@Microsoft @Skype - Skype is not at all a good software to have in corporate space. It has horrible performance issues. Lags. Hangs. Memory hogging. AI should be updated to detect when smilies to be included, even in normal conv smilies popup on usage of special chars.

@Skype Hi, I am currently using Skype - 8.73.0.124 on Win 10. I am facing the old & annoying issue in which the "presence" status of a user doesn't update properly unless I manually click on the contact name. I've already tried - clear cache, uninstall-reinstall. Any suggestions?
