  @calligraphymmo @Volstatsz @WarcraftDevs @maelfus I’ve never understood the whole idea of “I don’t like it, so neither should you.” Sega Vs. Nintendo died out years ago with AOL chatrooms (HAHA JOKE ON MATURITY HERE) People neee to let it go and be happy that everyone can find their niche and BE HAPPY! Be a Joy Enabler.

  Researchers tracked 344,753 websites over 18 months to map where American attention actually goes online. The answer is email. Gmail alone is 16% of all desktop time. Add Yahoo, Outlook, and AOL, and inboxes eat nearly a quarter of every hour Americans spend at a computer. That's double the combined total of Facebook, X, Reddit, Instagram, Discord, and WhatsApp. The legacy numbers are the wild part. Yahoo Mail, at 3.71%, gets more attention than ChatGPT, Reddit, and Netflix combined. AOL Mail, a service most people assume died with dial-up, beats Instagram and Discord combined. Yahoo still has roughly 225 million active mail users, skewing Gen X and Boomer: people who opened an account in 1999 and never saw a reason to leave. Google Search sits at just 2.33%. The front door of the entire internet gets less time than Yahoo's inbox, because search is engineered to end fast. Every second you spend on a results page is a second Google failed. The chart measures desktop, which explains the shape. Your phone is where you play. Your computer is where you work. And the work of being an American in 2026, the bills, the receipts, the school notices, the job applications, still runs through a protocol invented in 1971. Strip away 30 years of apps and the desktop internet is a post office with better graphics.

  History tells us that the companies that are early leaders in a software category rarely remain so. Altavista? Excite? InfoSeek? You're old if you remember those, but at the time they were dominant. Then came Yahoo, then Google... Years later. AOL? EarthLink? Compuserve? They were the Internet for most users. Now? Telcos & Cable cos reinvented themselves as consumer ISPs and dial up mostly died. The historical examples go way beyond software. The point is that although OpenAI, Anthropic, Grok/X, Google are dominating AI right now, things change in ways we can't forecast. The next better faster cheaper different AI solution that erases some current leaders probably hasn't been created yet. I do wonder though, who dies first? I'm talking 5-10 year window.

  @MustangMan_TX Yay! Its AOL. She must’ve hired a civil engineering firm with expertise in roads and bridges to fix her teeth. For some reason I imagine **** flies buzzing around her.

  My Japanese client has asked for my age for the 5th time in a row. What's the issue? I'm I too young for the legal profession? Does being old mean experience? I believe not. I know of 50 year old lawyers who dont a thing or 2 despite being in practice for ages. An aol kodu yawa

  @stetansley Psn was down, but just like with physical games... you could still play what was installed offline, having a disc doesn't magically give you internet access... this isnt 1996 and AOL is long gone... dumbass

  @nostalgames69 Bought a dreamcast just for to play this game. Unfortunately, AOL didn't work on dreamcast. We got DSL a few months later but we had no router and I didn't have the network adapter. The only way to connect online was to directly plug in the modem to it. Dad was not cool with it.
