  Am an idiot. Meant to say Deterministic. In terms of "where in the cycle", may still be '91 to '93. Disagree with ChatGPT to Netscape comparison and instead better checkpoint is AOL moment when masses started paying for internet access. So far, 2% US households pay for AI subs.

  I had like a hundred of those free hour discs from all my neighbors and had free AOL for like two years. I was able to put a space in my name somehow, Spectrum NLK, and people assumed I was a master hacker genius lmao. I never corrected them.

  @JabroniJeremy @ChrisArctor Why would fans need to know about it in order for it to have ramifications on the wrestling business? If it changed creative plans, THAT’S the shift in business. Regardless if every single fan was logging into their AOL account to read about it…. Are you slow?

  @MattPinner_ 18 points I never had AOL adress (not american) and not used a checkbook, as by the time I was an adult (2000) it was not that common in my country anymore. And when I was a kid, most adults I saw, never used these. Only some business men. More common to use physical bankgiro.

  Like, sometimes I wonder how nonces found each other before dodgy chatrooms on AOL started. But **** like this reminds me that they’re pretty open about it, they just pass it off as banter.

  I found a gaffer’s email on AOL when I was in high school and emailed him. He replied within like two days, and then I got starstruck and never replied.

  Just pulled my first astrology cue from my blind pool. I had forgot I tossed some in there a few years back. I did get as an AOL - completely esoteric target (which is to say it was a completely metaphorical layer of data for an esoteric target). The purpose was the gain a deeper understanding when Mars passes through my 2nd house. I was afraid it was a wasted vague oversimplified mess of data, but my brain didn't do too bad even though this was the first time it pulled data for that type of cue. Not sure, but I think it might have been trying to tell me that what's going on when Mars is in the 1st, or perhaps even when it passes into the 11th or 12th will determine what kind of value I get out of Mars passing through the 2nd, and may not even come to fruition until I put 3rd house effort into whatever that is. (I got a box like thing with X being in the box. There were 2 openings and a flow. I kept getting ideas of mechanical or electrical "housings" and a flow through the openings. I was also reminded that Mars rules Scorpio and so this can be a time of "uncovering" or gaining things that "live underground" (AKA Scorpio things.) And that Scorpio is fixed, and Taurus that naturally rules the 2nd is also fixed, so there were themes of something that was moving and is moveable, but isn't currently moving. It was as if the "fixedness" transformed my usual Cancer (water) 2nd house into something more viscous. Maybe a reminder to accept things as they are and not struggle with them and to try to see the good in whatever is being delivered and make the most (or "value") what it is. I found it funny that the viscous, non-moving liquid that was on the surface in the box was shades of brown, grey, blue and black - all swirled together like ***** oil. Colors of earth (Taurus) and Scorpio, clouding up my Moon, ruler of my 2nd house (AKA clouding up my emotions.) I wasn't sure I was making a connection during the session, but I pushed through and didn't try to push too much (30 minute session). I definitely enjoyed contemplating the deeper meanings of the totally metaphorical data on this esoteric subject. #remoteviewing meets #astrology

  Web 3.0 is siloed in the same way the internet was siloed in the days of Prodigy, Compuserve, and AOL. Walled gardens didn’t make sense in 1993, and they don’t make sense today. In this interview I give a first look into how @hashgraph will tear down the walls.

  @FearedBuck this is crazy because in a few years from now we will be explaining how the youth never used google search, similar to how we used to download music or use aol 56k modem

  @someguyonx97 @AskYoshik Internet growth was overhyped I never witnessed it's abilities and cost/value overhyped though like AI. People could readily afford internet access and 5th graders could use it to its potential via AOL or Netscape. Not so much for AI We agree the bubble pop is going to be big

  @Jax_B_ @Kronykal @mnsibley So he's either younger than 40 or older than 50? Or maybe somehow just never used AOL chat rooms.

  @ehtreasurer No launches on aol anymore . How bout that ? Why is no one launching coins on that **** platform . Why is there no volume ? Why is no one engaging with aol tweets ? Dam you must be the dumbest person alive or you are part of the scam . I’ve never seen anyone get rugged and congratulate the team like you did with revolution. 🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡

  Lately have been thinking about it. There was internet, there were computers, there were even messengers too (Yahoo, AOL, MSN etc.) and later social media as well (Orkut, OG Facebook). And then iPhone, apps, messaging etc. Everything that we have taken for granted today existed back then in some shape or form but overall the outlook was very utopian. I am sure every generation looks back at their formative years with some nostalgia, but damn mid 2000s to early 2010s was some life.

  Around that time, a movie called You've Got Mail was very popular. It is a love story about a man and a woman who fall in love by exchanging e-mails even though they have never met in person. In the movie, they used AOL as their Internet provider.

  @HeerJeet if you want absolutely no ai, i'd use aol search! it's like, honestly not that great as a search engine, but quite frankly all of the other search engines are also quite bad. and it's so decrepit it will never have ai!

  I consider the Postal Service’s biggest failure in the early Internet era was not giving an email address to everyone. Instead, they delivered AOL CDs to people who set up an email with them. Imagine if everybody had @usps.com email address. They would have made a fortune.

  @AwesomeNintend0 Logically, this is faked. That doesn’t make sense. PlayStation 1 … So what is the “again?” And what forum is this? I understand the pic has to be archive— the “sign in to reply” verbiage and font is definitely post-AOL etc.

  @wakeupnj Not new sadly. They were using MySpace and AOL back then. Cities didn’t want to acknowledge they had a gang problem so they allowed them to grow.

  @AMandoSch I am finding a ton of porn spam on my AOL email account. I never saw it previously - before the lates iOS update. (I also have Gmail) I dislike how hard it is to block and how there is no more spam reporting available that I can see. 🫤
