  @78NIKatNITE @nodqdotcom WCW didn’t fail because of him it was because of AOL and let’s stop this notion that AEW is close to what WCW was to the WWE. You fanboys wanna go so hard for them and they have been doing nothing but regressing

  Data Centers have been around for a long time... The commercial internet & World Wide Web created demand for always-on servers & interconnection. Early internet exchange points such as MAE-East in Northern Virginia (Metropolitan Area Exchange–East), established in 1992, was the first non-governmental Internet Exchange Point (IXP) in the United States. It served as a physical meeting point where early commercial Internet service providers (ISPs) could interconnect & exchange traffic directly rather than routing everything through distant or government-controlled networks. This peering model reduced costs & latency & became a foundational piece of the commercial Internet. America Online’s presence in the region, plus cheap land near Dulles Airport, available fiber & proximity to Washington, D.C. & DARPA (which had funded ARPANET), made Loudoun County/Ashburn attractive. Equinix, founded in 1998, built one of the region’s first dedicated commercial data centers to serve AOL & others, pioneering the colocation model. Companies rented space, power, cooling & connectivity instead of building their own facilities. Similar “carrier hotels” & interconnection hubs emerged in cities such as New York & Los Angeles. The late-1990s dot-com boom accelerated construction of larger purpose-built facilities. The subsequent bust left unused space that later operators filled.

  @brockpierson If you had AOL or CompuServe, you had to connect with a modem. At some point PCs shipped with integrated modems, but yes, I rocked one of those bad boys as well.

  @mariza_hofer Desperate people, don't **** with them. They can't be predicted in any meaningful fashion. Imo. I was tech support for the world's first chat based communities. AOL and Prodigy and V.B.B.S. I can say this I got catfished once, and a 17 year relationship was the results. Favour of god to your unity with an equal and opposite force. My dignity is all that keeps me from flirtatious decorum. Will be looking for someone of quality to refer to you for inspection.
