  People prefer to pay flat rates than metered. In today's age, you can give an agent monthly budget (flat rate) and not have to worry about how many micropayments it makes for products/services. Excerpt from "Case Against Micropayments": "What was the biggest complaint of AOL users? Not the widely mocked and irritating blue bar that appeared when members downloaded information. Not the frequent unsolicited junk e-mail. Not dropped connections. Their overwhelming gripe: the ticking clock. Users didn’t want to pay by the hour anymore. ... Case had heard from one AOL member who insisted that she was being cheated by AOL’s hourly rate pricing. When he checked her average monthly usage, he found that she would be paying AOL more under the flat-rate price of $19.95. When Case informed the user of that fact, her reaction was immediate. ‘I don’t care,’ she told an incredulous Case. ’I am being cheated by you.’"

  LOL, compete with other streaming mergers. Paramount+ works worse than AOL dial-up in the 1990's. It sucks so bad they need help!

  My most vidid first memories of the internet are me and friends going into AOL chats and immediately being bored, ******* with them however we could because it was just boring. TBF we would **** with people IRL in the same way most of the time. It took longer to get that bored

  @pe_remek Flat-rate dial-up ran on the same circuit-switched lines as per-minute dial-up. AOL sold $19.95 unlimited in 1996 with the phone network unchanged. If circuit switching forced per-minute billing, that plan could not have existed. It did, and millions bought it. So the meter was a pricing choice, not a property of the wire. It came off dial-up by decision, and Anthropic just announced the same move for its best model: folding it back into a flat subscription.

  @FCBTheo_ @TouchlineX Yes it did. There was a battle for the 4th star. I correctly picked up on energy in the universal hologram 3 years ago in regards to Argentina battling for their 4th star. My error was I used my logical part of brain to fill in the gaps. Since the ego hates ambiguity it filled in the rest by saying since its a battle it must mean Argentina wins. The gateway and stargate which were both used by the CIA to study remote viewing and psychic ability called this AOL (Analytical overlay). I suffered the same error in my march 2024 prediction when I predicted Spain would beat Italy 3-1 in Euro final. A classic example of getting big picture correct but small errors kinda ruin it. In the future I will work on strategies to prevent this so my perception of what I'm seeing is more accurate. @grok is what I'm saying about CIA, Gateway, Stargate in regards to AOL and hypnagogic dream accurate?
