  @GaryCollin37052 his tariff policy. His tariffs amount to the largest U.S. tax increase as a share of GDP since 1993 (Tax Foundation) , roughly $1,500 per household in 2026 (Tax Foundation) . Trade: the Supreme Court ruled he couldn't impose tariffs under emergency powers (aol) , but he's kept

  @PublicEnemiesHQ The only difference is Time Warner/AOL already had WCW. It was tanking before they merged, WWE was at great heights when TKO took over. TKO is like a bar owner that waters down the booze after a great night. WWE seems to just be people walking around, yelling, and crashing out.

  @MeganTStevenson not to mention AOL Mail! My 91 year-old uncle was on AOL mail until he died. My guess is that he was a representative customer.

  20. Connected Account Vulnerability The Situation: Back in 2010, you finally made the jump from Yahoo, Hotmail, or AOL to Gmail. To make the transition easier, you linked your old legacy account to automatically forward everything into your new Gmail inbox. You haven't logged into that Yahoo account in a decade. The Mechanics: Legacy email platforms like Yahoo and AOL have notoriously outdated, porous spam filters compared to Google's billion-dollar machine learning infrastructure. By using POP3 or IMAP to pull that mail into Gmail, you are essentially bypassing Google's frontline defenses and piping raw, unfiltered internet sewage straight into your pristine Gmail ecosystem. The Fix: It is time to sever the cord. Go to Gmail Settings > Accounts and Import. Look under "Check mail from other accounts." Delete the legacy connections. If you absolutely still need access to that ancient Hotmail account for banking resets, log into it directly, aggressively clean it, and set up incredibly strict server-side rules there before allowing it anywhere near your primary hub.

  Wow surprisingly tone deaf post from an @openai top executive. Feels like AOL or Compuserve arguing about how dangerous and bad for innovation an open internet would be. Permissionless innovation. That’s what open weight models offer.

  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. 🍻

  @chamath Frontier models are headed down the AOL road. The question is, when Anthropic and OpenAI fail, who gets dragged down with them? What companies do well? Nvidia? Hyperscalers?

  Researchers tracked 344,753 websites over 18 months to map where American attention actually goes online. The answer is email. Gmail alone is 16% of all desktop time. Add Yahoo, Outlook, and AOL, and inboxes eat nearly a quarter of every hour Americans spend at a computer. That's double the combined total of Facebook, X, Reddit, Instagram, Discord, and WhatsApp. The legacy numbers are the wild part. Yahoo Mail, at 3.71%, gets more attention than ChatGPT, Reddit, and Netflix combined. AOL Mail, a service most people assume died with dial-up, beats Instagram and Discord combined. Yahoo still has roughly 225 million active mail users, skewing Gen X and Boomer: people who opened an account in 1999 and never saw a reason to leave. Google Search sits at just 2.33%. The front door of the entire internet gets less time than Yahoo's inbox, because search is engineered to end fast. Every second you spend on a results page is a second Google failed. The chart measures desktop, which explains the shape. Your phone is where you play. Your computer is where you work. And the work of being an American in 2026, the bills, the receipts, the school notices, the job applications, still runs through a protocol invented in 1971. Strip away 30 years of apps and the desktop internet is a post office with better graphics.

  History tells us that the companies that are early leaders in a software category rarely remain so. Altavista? Excite? InfoSeek? You're old if you remember those, but at the time they were dominant. Then came Yahoo, then Google... Years later. AOL? EarthLink? Compuserve? They were the Internet for most users. Now? Telcos & Cable cos reinvented themselves as consumer ISPs and dial up mostly died. The historical examples go way beyond software. The point is that although OpenAI, Anthropic, Grok/X, Google are dominating AI right now, things change in ways we can't forecast. The next better faster cheaper different AI solution that erases some current leaders probably hasn't been created yet. I do wonder though, who dies first? I'm talking 5-10 year window.

  @bobo103nyc I remember seeing this as a kid back in the AOL days and thinking “surely this is the worst thing I’ll ever see on the internet”
