  @ericbrownzzz I don't know if this was intended, but I like the linkage b/w Online America and AoL (A.rchers o.f L.oaf and America Online; an internet service from when Archers were active). AoL: Web in front. But in back of web, some chat rooms with three people in them.

  @brianstelter They say this is to compete against Netflix and more, yet in reality each study is a supplier to streaming services despite each having their own production capabilities. Sadly, Warner is the partner of bad mergers: AOL, AT&T, Discovery and now Skydance.

  @BuzzPatterson Yea, we tried doing a iMitchcall through AOL but it was too slow.

  This is exactly the kind of infrastructure-level integration that proves we’re past the build phase 👀 Ripple successfully tested as a blockchain enhancer for the SWIFT network (Hyperledger + ISO 20022) back in June 2025, and now it’s moving toward actual integration. Remember when the internet went from heavy build-out to mass adoption in 1998? I was an AOL shareholder and worked at UUNET selling the pipes. The parallels with XRP and the Internet of Value today are identical — regulatory clarity + real infrastructure hooks = adoption phase. We’re entering the Green Zone. 🍻

  @Soaringeagle45 I got 15 points due to the fact that I never used a fax machine, got a AOL account, dial up internet, nor used a checkbook until college my grandfather was the only person sleeps on a waterbed

  @mar70854f @nemywtf @itskwasi You have to get an undergraduate degree before you go for a PHD retard Zuck and gates were mega geniuses going to harvard. Zuck had a job offer from AOL in high school. Much different from 99.9% of you retards who say “well an immaterial amount of rich people don’t have degrees”

  My 86 year-old father called me at 2 AM because he accidentally joined a Discord server and thought he was being "recruited by the internet." I answered the phone half asleep. "They're in the computer," he said. "Who's in the computer?" "The voices. There are young people. They're talking. I think I've been hacked." I sat up. "Dad, what are you talking about?" "I clicked something and now there's a room full of people and they keep saying my name." My blood pressure spiked. I thought maybe he'd stumbled into some kind of scam call center or ransomware situation. "Don't click anything else," I said. "I'm coming over." I drove twenty minutes to his house at 2:30 in the morning. When I walked in, he was sitting at his computer, headphones around his neck, looking absolutely terrified. "They know I'm here," he whispered. I looked at the screen. He had somehow joined a Discord server called "Chill Vibes Gaming." There were about forty people in a voice channel. And in the chat, someone had typed: "Yo who is CrazyDave1938 and why is he breathing so loud?" CrazyDave1938 was my father. "Dad, how did you even get here?" "I was trying to download solitaire." "THIS ISN'T SOLITAIRE." "I KNOW THAT NOW." Apparently, he clicked an ad, which led to a download, which installed Discord, which auto-connected him to some random public server. And he'd been sitting in a voice chat for forty-five minutes, not speaking, just listening. The people in the chat were confused but remarkably patient. One of them typed: "CrazyDave, are you okay? Blink twice if you need help." My father had no camera on, so blinking was not an option. I leaned over and typed: "Sorry, this is his son. He's 86 and very confused. He thought this was solitaire." The chat exploded. "LMAOOO." "Protect CrazyDave at all costs." "Dave you're a legend." Someone changed his server nickname to "Grandpa Dave." My father looked at me, bewildered. "Are they laughing at me?" "They love you." He squinted at the screen. "What is this place?" "It's like a chat room." "Like AOL?" "Sure, Dad. Like AOL." He thought about it for a second. "Can I stay?" I stared at him. "You want to stay in the gaming Discord?" "They seem nice. That one called me a legend." I didn't know what to say. I helped him figure out how to mute himself, showed him how to leave and rejoin, and drove home. That was three months ago. He's still in the server. He logs in every night around 8 PM and just listens. Occasionally he types things like "Good game everyone" even though he's never played anything. Last week someone made him a moderator as a joke. He took it very seriously. He now removes "inappropriate language" and once banned someone for "being rude to a young lady." The server has doubled in size. Half the new members joined specifically because they heard about Grandpa Dave. My father has become a Discord celebrity at 86 years old. He still doesn't know what Discord is. He calls it "the solitaire room." I've stopped correcting him.
