Not sure, apparently an old one. The app doesn't keep itself updated like Chrome does so it just ages and fails. Very clear that Windows people make this, not normal developers. They miss some of the basics.
Skype for Windows auto-updates by default.
I don't know if it does on non Windows 10 machines.
It does if you use the desktop app like a sane person. I cannot stand the Win10 "App" for it... it has never worked right for me.
Why would you use a Windows 10 App for anything?

My Point exactly. I suddenly started getting notices from it since I log in using my Windows Live ID, lol. I uninstalled it faster than a NASCAR driver at the race track.

Doesn't really exist. It's a myth.

I use the Netflix app, the Facebook app (rarely but sometimes). I get what they were trying to do. Use the notifications thing for all apps, but it's not there yet. However, Crunchyroll and Netflix apps are pretty good.

Crazy thunderstorms here, complete with tornado warnings. And a small tornado already touched down in Buckhead / N. Atlanta. Still glad to see the rain.

Looks like we may get some here later on tonight. Bit closer to the middle of the state.

Nice and sunny here.

With hours left to go before EOM, ML is already at a higher per day traffic average than any other month, ever. The final total traffic number for the month is not going to edge over last month's record high, but only because last month had 31 days and this one only has 30. A few extra hours would make the difference, but we just aren't going to quite edge over last month's total. But on a daily basis, this is ML's best month ever even with the holiday slowdown for a full week!

I got that too. Have not looked at it yet. Need to dig out my Kindle Paperwhite.

@scottalanmiller I have an old Kindle as well, but never really liked the lag on it and inability to quickly scroll like you can with other devices. Here recently, if I am going to read something other than tech, I prefer the old school practice of actually buying the book. (Those things that are made from dead trees.) Remember those?

I didn't like my old Kindle that much, but the Paperwhite is fantastic.

I am on my 3rd version of kindle (have the paperwhite). I love the paperwhite. The others had little quirks but the paperwhite is just awesome.

It definitely lept Amazon forward quickly.
