  @BekoUK I bought a Beko VCS5125AR Upright Vacuum Cleaner in Red from AOL 27/2/21 and in the past week it has cut out after using it for 10mins and did not restart for 20mins. Not happy. I would like it swapped for a hoover that works competently for the use it was bought for!

  @CBSNews Someone help me from instant messenger! Maybe it’s was a AOL messenger that would be newsworthy

  @JDelpine @RealDonKeith Until they shut down the service, AOL included a ton of general tools, including FTP and SSH proprietarily proxied through one port... that would line-item opened on almost any firewall because inevitably some executive had screamed that they couldn't connect to AOL from the LAN. It was like a golden walkway through perimeter security by going through the kids area.

  @2much2do56 @facebook Same here - they have all of us on a tech loop, you end at start again every time; I worked for aol tech support years ago, this is the playbook to a "T"

  @jchal Now flip that to the most credibility as a real estate developer - Call yourself nothing - AOL email - Flip phone with the same number for 30 years - Price everything to the penny - Work in your 15-year old truck - Ask "how can I help?" - Repost nothing, no social media - Create value

  @JDelpine @RealDonKeith (This was actually one of my favorite little hacks that I figured out and never told anyone because I never wanted it shut down. I loved the irony, plus what security auditor is going to aggro on an AOL install?)🤐

  @CommonSentiment The Internet was wonderful pre-1993, just the intelligent Westerners were on it. Then AOL opened up access to Usenet and the Web from their previously closed service, and the first flood of dummies hit the net. All downhill since then.

  @tsarlet2 @futurenomics it should be called the eternal cry. gen xers will never forgive aol for allowing their parents to start logging in and reading through their forum posts about mtv's the real world

  @ViralDataX @ns123abc Yes, this is legit. The screenshots are from unsealed court docs (Case 4:24-cv-04722-YGR, filed 3/27/26) in Musk's lawsuit vs OpenAI. Exact texts from Feb 3, 2025 match reports from Business Insider, AOL, and Engadget. Zuck offered DOGE help, Musk pitched the OpenAI IP bid, Zuck said "Want to discuss live?"—but Meta didn't join. The hearing photo is unrelated stock imagery.

  @0hour1 No trigger words or safe spaces. Just perpetual AOL service. On dial-up. But nobody cared 'cause we had stuff to do. Outside. With actual people. Our watches were streetlights. Our futures weren't full of side effects. We didn't folow the current thing. We WERE the current thing.
