  RT 📌 I DON'T WANT TO DIE ($0/1100) (@Irisposting) reported 5 minutes ago

  This makes me really sad because AX used to kick complete *** I loved it so much. I started going when I was in my mid-teens, one time I hung out with a bunch of the cast of 03 FMA because of an AOL fan chat they'd come and groupwatch the new episodes with us in, Mike McFarland bought us lunch because my friend was rude and thought we weren't paying....

  @kmcnam1 This is what email services such as @AOL should offer when all you get is spam nowadays that you never bother to read.

  This is true. I have officially built a bulk mail server for just me that functions 100% like constant contact or mail chimp in every possible way that I have been able to detect, using AI. It cost me less than $100 to build it. It costs only 10 cents for every 1000 emails I send. Every email service (aol, hotmail, yahoo, Microsoft, gmail) recognizes it as a legit service. It’s called KennyBMail I log in to my dashboard which I can design however I want. It has one user and one account. Me and mine. I can do drip campaigns, single emails, weekly newsletters and whatever else you can think of. It uses all the structure blocks, tests, formats, resends, click and open trackers, reports. Everything. You name it this service does it. My gated content has put over 650 new emails into it in 3 weeks while I sleep. For a small YouTube channel that has given me an entirely new way to reach people in my audience. AI knows every language. Every human language and every coding language in every human language. It knows how everything in the domain of coding and programming works. Everything. It’s not perfect but it works. It would have cost me tens of thousands of dollars to have a company build this. I built it with AI in 9 days during down time. If you know how to tell it what to do (not everyone does) - then if you can think it, you can build it. I know nothing about building this kind of stuff and still did it because I know how to articulate what I want it to do and how to tell it when something isn’t right.

  AOL had 30M users, and the internet locked down. Then the open web ate it. Anthropic and OpenAI are playing AOL right now. The Fable 5 rug pull just showed every enterprise exactly what it looks like to depend on closed AI. The off switch exists. Someone else holds it. Llama, Mistral, Qwen - they're not "almost as good" anymore. For most enterprise workloads, they're good enough. And they run on your own hardware. Apple MLX + NVIDIA RTX Spark laptops + rapidly improving open weights = the mainframe-to-PC transition, happening in real time. Open-source AI will do to Frontier Labs what the open internet did to AOL. History doesn't always repeat itself, but it certainly rhymes. The only question is how long you keep building on someone else's infrastructure before you start owning yours.

  23. **Mitsubishi UFJ Financial Group (2008)** — Lost over $18.5 billion nominally, equivalent to over **$20.0 billion** today due to global credit declines and equity write-downs. 24. **Alcatel (2001)** — Suffered massive merger-related write-downs and market destruction during the telecom equipment collapse, crossing the **$20.0 billion** inflation-adjusted threshold. 25. **Swiss Re (2008)** — Incurred tens of billions in asset impairments and structured credit losses during the financial crisis, placing its real-loss event at the **$20.0 billion** inflation-adjusted mark. The Three Eras of Corporate Destruction What stands out is how concentrated these losses are. The Dot-Com and Telecom Collapse (2000–2002) The telecom bubble produced the single greatest concentration of corporate losses ever observed. AOL Time Warner, JDS Uniphase, Qwest, Deutsche Telekom, Vodafone, Vivendi, Alcatel, and NTT all appear on the list. Trillions of dollars in market value evaporated as companies wrote down acquisitions, fiber networks, wireless licenses, and internet-related assets purchased at bubble-era valuations. The Global Financial Crisis (2008–2009) AIG, Fannie Mae, Freddie Mac, Citigroup, Royal Bank of Scotland, UBS, Credit Suisse, Swiss Re, and Mitsubishi UFJ all suffered enormous losses as mortgage securities, derivatives, and structured credit markets collapsed. Unlike many dot-com write-downs, these losses reflected real capital destruction that threatened the stability of the global financial system. Industry-Specific Collapses General Motors appears three separate times on the list, highlighting decades of structural challenges within the auto industry. United Airlines reflects the severe financial strain associated with bankruptcy and restructuring. Nakheel demonstrates how quickly even seemingly unstoppable real-estate booms can reverse. The Half-Trillion-Dollar Club The four largest losses alone account for nearly $470 billion in inflation-adjusted value destruction: * **AOL Time Warner (2002):** ~$143 billion * **AIG (2008):** ~$128 billion * **JDS Uniphase (2001):** ~$104 billion * **Fannie Mae (2009):** ~$94 billion Combined, these four annual losses destroyed more value than the current market capitalization of many of the world's largest public companies. The lesson from this ranking is simple: the biggest corporate losses rarely occur because a company has a bad quarter or even a bad year. They happen when an entire narrative breaks—whether it is internet mania, telecom euphoria, housing prices that supposedly never fall, or financial engineering that appears risk-free until suddenly it isn't.
