  @claudeai Why not for us that don’t spend $1200 a year? Why put us thru a meter like AOL in the old days when parents opened their phone bills and went bananas. And all that for a mythos lite which is what fable is. You’re pushing people away. To quote your own Claude in an interaction w me: “Makes sense as a complaint — Fable being the restricted, safety-hardened variant of the same underlying model is exactly why “why not just give me the real thing” feels reasonable.”

  @syruproxy We met on an AOL aviation message board. 🤭 We crossed paths many times as kids but never met. We met in person a few weeks after nonstop phone calls and we've never been apart. I was on furlough from the airline I flew with, and I said no when they called me back. 📟 didn't work in the countries I flew to and we were inseparable by then. 30 years ago. 🩶

  @AlisonSomin @varadmehta AOL people were just boomers who never actually learned the internet.

  @NotTodayEric I had a 22 year old ask me what "aol" was the other day. She looked at me like I was crazy when I described the discs that came in the mail and played her the sound it made when it connected to the internet. Damn kids have no idea what we went through.

  @ChristandGuitar @Dexerto But universities are horrible at current methods and economics. They will create classes just to charge more tuition. Like MySpace 101 & How to use AOL.

  What was that free dial up service that came on a CD, around the time of AOL

  How do all these people have 10s of thousands of "followers"? People that don't necessarily post anything new or just re-posts of other peoples' thoughts & work. I don't get it. I've been a member for a while now (w/ THIS acct - my orig was cancelled by Twitter during COVID for telling the factual scientific truth about masks based on my years in Bio-Nanotechnology). Is it strictly from those "Follow" train lists? I learned early on to stay away from those - I check out EVERYBODY I ever follow first & personally (not necessarily relying upon Grok's "Profile Summary", although those may get me interested to take a gander). I try to engage those who engage with me and avoid silly flame-wars. I don't post to GET followers, I generally post current stream-of-consciousness thoughts, what's on my mind at that moment & not really organizing them into proper English "articles". Plus I'm not really good at pithy comments - I speak from my heart & soul and EXPLAIN myself & my reasoning for coming to different conclusions. And I typically don't engage in irrational, emotional hyperbole & name-calling. I truly want to know what others think and LEARN (you're never too old to learn!). For DECADES on BBSes (Bulletin Board Systems - pre-graphical internet days, modem-connected social systems for discussion, research & debates), the Usenets (newsgroups, pre-graphical/HTTP/HTML internet days when time on the internet was purchased through 3rd party vendors like CompuServe by the hour - 70s & 80s, pre-AOL (which is slightly pre-HTTP/HTML/Mozilla-Netscape graphical internet revolution) - where everything was command-line driven in ASCII, EBCDIC, ISO set or ATASCII or the like). Am I just too old, boring, long-winded, obnoxious, opinionated or what? I know its annoying with me posting about my health, but I've gotta vent SOMEWHERE and NO ONE on X knows me personally. Not that it matters so much now, I'm heading down the stretch-run to Home plate, but even paying for Elon's blue-checkmark, I don't get many hits/views or responses/engagement, it is pretty comparable to my "free" account that I use solely for NFL stuff where I have 1 whole "follower", which is probably one of those online ho-bags. It's not that I'm looking to "earn" from X and I'll NEVER post things just for click-bait value. I'm just really curious how these other accounts accrue so many followers for literally not doing much,

  For those of you who don't know the history, MSN was originally a walled-garden dial-up online service like AOL. A couple of Microsoft engineers convinced Bill Gates to turn the entire company around and focus on the public Internet instead of the walled garden approach.

  @Brownbeingg There is an old horror movie from when I was a teen in the 90’s and parents were convinced this type of thing would happen to us. It’s called Strangeland(on tubi). I got caught in one AOL chat and my parents put me on AOL kids until I was 17. It was LOCKED DOWN.
