  AOL was the first time I realized that a business could systematically exploit human weakness and make money by misleading customers. At the time, I was still a student. Out of curiosity, I subscribed to AOL. In reality, I already had access to the internet through a PPP modem, so I didn’t need AOL at all. But they offered a “first month free” promotion, and during registration, I had to provide my bank account details. I completely forgot about it. I never used the service, since I continued using my own internet connection. A few months later, I accidentally discovered that I had been charged $9.95 every month. As a student, that was not a trivial amount. I contacted AOL customer service. They didn’t argue or explain — they immediately terminated the service. Which, to me, showed they knew exactly what they were doing — and that this was not an isolated case.

  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

  @laurashin tech debt plays out different when you remember who got crushed by it before the mempool even settled Vitalik never had to watch AOL die in real time

  @MKortvely I stuck with AOL email account for sentimental reasons as it was my first Internet Service Provider back in the dial up modem days. Hotmail and gmail are also used by me.

  Had Ted Turner maintained executive control in the merger with Time Warner, or if the merger never happened, WCW would have still existed past 2001. It was on a countdown once it happened. Subsequent merger with AOL only quickened its demise (+ bad contracts & poor booking).

  @AOL He is an idiot. He's quoted the same verbiage since 24 hours of disappearing.

  @StevenHeathen @SadTreachery A rootkit can have malice intent, stupid Sony BMG and AOL 5.0 are examples of companies that were sued for similar situations

  @price_dominie @wayofftheres Or the B that takes a team laptop to ANCOC and comes back with aol saved username of “whitegirllover” which may or may not have happened in the early 2000s. I was never brave enough to do anything other than wipe and reinstall a computer that a D had.

  Or AOL for that matter. Never down. People laugh at me for using my vintage address but it works.
