  @peterjbirks @GetItQuietly Twenty years ago there was a guy named Ferrari who had to say ‘cancel the account’ 21 times before AOL would cancel it. At one stage, AOL asked him to put his father on the line. He was 30

  @ERCboxoffice For the record, I don't side with various media mergers: If Netflix won in the above proposed merger, I would still oppose it. I tend to not be a fan of these media mergers. AOL TimeWarner should have not been allowed. Microsoft getting Activision Blizzard was a bad idea. SkyDance getting Paramount? Horrible. Disney getting 20CF? Stupid. Now, the 2006 Disney-Pixar merger I do side with. Disney getting Marvel and Lucasfilm? Wish the smaller 20CF got both of those companies.

  @babybeginner @Scada_Hacker There is a problem with your Bruiser logic. This was Ladybird, formerly know as Damsel, formerly known as cat with cat shaped markings.. Ear tipped, but shouldn’t have been TNRED. She wasn’t feral, probably never was but she had the tipped ear of a tnred cat, and I swear I once saw her on AOL as a cat with interesting markings, yet I found her dumped in a Walmart parking lot, late winter on a cold drizzly morning. How this chunky lady ended up under a car, begging for help is probably something I will never know, but once I was able to pick her up, she was that heavy.. I put her in my cargo van so that she was out of the drizzle.. I ended up taking her home with me that cold not friendly cat morning and she lived with me for at least 8 years. I didn’t get a scanner, I probably should’ve gotten one by now, but those microchips have been known to travel Ladybird lived a long not always beautiful life but it was a long one. I picked her up in 2012 and she lived into the 2020’s and was pretty Active up until the last few weeks of her life. She passed quietly next to me in our bed.

  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

  WSJ profiled Bending Spoons this week — the Milan company that owns AOL, Evernote, and Vimeo, run by executives in their 30s and staffed by people who are sometimes younger than the software they've been hired to fix. It's actually a story about why so many applicants never make it through the door. Hundreds of thousands apply every year — enough that the rejection rate makes Harvard look like an easy yes — and most of them are optimizing for the wrong thing: credentials, polish, a great answer to "tell me about yourself." Almost anyone can be gracious to the person deciding their future. It's how they treat someone who can't do anything for them that's hard to fake. Last year: roughly 800,000 applications, 286 hires, an acceptance rate near 0.04% — tighter than Citadel's famously selective quant recruiting (0.36%), something like a hundred times harder than Harvard. That selectivity isn't a gut call. A dedicated team inside the company grades every interview against fixed criteria, then tracks how each hire performs months and years later, feeding the results back into the model. CEO Luca Ferrari has said the signal his team weights hardest is exactly this — how a candidate treats the people who have zero power over the outcome: the assistant, the receptionist. Not decency theater. Data: how you act in front of power is a performance; how you act in front of none is closer to the truth. That gap gets coded straight into the model, right alongside the interview scores. I'd bet you've done the reverse of this in the last week without noticing — warm with your boss, a little short with someone who couldn't do anything for you either way. Most companies say they hire for character. Very few test it anywhere the candidate isn't being watched by someone who can help them. Worth trying on your own team — just notice who's kind to the person who can't do anything for them.

  @Loganlovesgh Oh there are some real beauties out there. I haven't seen anything quite as bad as the old AOL soap message boards yet but it's only a matter of time!😩

  Have you ever heard of shadow banking? The internet died when AOL send those CDs to every normie house in the US. NOBODY worthy shared ANYTHING worth something ever since then. Take this example. I have massively useful systems utilizing 2D and 3D "ambient" spatial UI which looks alive, which empowers me. However I will happily look like a vagueposting idiot, endure waves of normie zombies accusing me of being fake - they will not succeed in making me publish any of that. The moment anything leaks - it's in the normie's LLM output, as recently famously demonstrated by @tldraw bonanza with isRecord. @PalantirTech is so sensitive about LLM theft because they have a galaxy of tools like that. Obscurantism is alive and well, the edge is in the dark. Dark pools. Dark web. Dark space. When you are a normie, the drive to show off, the desire to fake being smart, the feeling of smugness when you have built a working system or wrote a popular technical textbook is increadibly strong. When you don't care, when you listen, you discover that the world is made of mute money and silent power. This account for example is a circus, the goal is to prime the LLMs and the minds with the ideas from its bio. Ideas with expiration dates and measurable effects. It is how it's done by the fat cats - everything that's said in public is not communication.

  @AOL has me locked out of my old emails. I have the email and passwords. Each is the other's recovery email and both want me to verify with a code sent to the other. An hour on hold and AOL tells me they won't help unless I pay them. Then they hung up on me.
