  • Hag_SAFC Ian Harrison (@Hag_SAFC) reported from Morpeth, England

    @andrew_hird @SunderlandAFC @England Whilst the 1st team lanquishes in the 3rd tier of English Football, having been on the verge of bankruptcy. The AOL has benefited all bar who it is supposed to, thanks to previous mismanagement. And the irony of watchn a relegation owing to shit keepers, whilst watchn JP in a WC

    @BoebertBurner @AOC @AOL isn't stupid. You should have reached out before #Jan6th. Now you're just trolling, and poorly so.

  • Cdzikus Chris C (@Cdzikus) reported

    @jkd0509 @gmail @AOL Same thing to me right now .. every email since April just magically disappeared from inbox on iPhone .. something strange goin on .. I can see the emails if I scroll down to the account to “all mail” for each account ...

    GenX knows. We did the same thing but it was in AOL chat rooms & RagingBull. We knew it was fake but we dove in head first. Then it blew up and you know what? We ate crow, picked ourselves up and moved forward. You guys are gonna weaponize it for some stupid idea like UBI.

    @karlbykarlsmith @TheStalwart Had the same in 90s with Motley Fool chat rooms via AOL. They all ended in a bad way.

  • bhemstreet Bruce Hemstreet (@bhemstreet) reported

    @jontalotta Investor message boards and over leveraged institutions have existed since before AOL dialup...we just can’t figure out when regulation is good and when regulation is bad

    Jin Ling. Come help me guess Wei Wuxian's AOL password

  • haHeyoka Harlano Heyoka (@haHeyoka) reported

    @____Marcell When I was like 15 I wanted to get around AOL’s rate limit to message faster. I figured out how to watch network traffic and made my own client app before long. Rate limits were on the server, so then I learned how to make a server. That’s to say, dig into the format and code.

    @birdwatch So in other words, you're also kind of doing some of the same thing as @AOL when it has members help monitor comments to determine whether or not they might offend someone before allowing them to be posted, but you're not going quite that far in the approval/editing process.

    @thatjoehep hmmm maybe this AOL disk will work in lieu of ME. I supported it for Gateway but never owned/used it
