Anna’s Smile 👻 (@annaBeauty0) reported19/ Doesn’t that look a little like an AOL–Time Warner merger that never quite made it to the actual merger stage? An old-world giant placing a massive bet on a new-world leader in an attempt to inject new life into its own empire. Does that script sound a little familiar? Of course, history doesn’t simply repeat itself. Microsoft today understands technology far better than Time Warner did back then. And AI may have even greater potential than the internet ever did. The internet bubble eventually burst. But the internet itself survived and went on to fundamentally transform the world. So the real question today isn’t: Does AI have value? Of course it does. The real question is: Can the value of AI actually justify the insane prices, the enormous investments, and the expectations being placed on it today? And if it can’t, what happens when the bubble bursts? The answer may be hidden inside a question that very few people have seriously stopped to calculate: How much money is AI actually burning?

GKPlayzz (@GKLiveX) reported@Puppyboyish @HalfnHalf_Madam All social platforms are like this if you look hard enough. MSN, AOL, Skype, Discord, X, they all have bad actors. If PS Home was still up then I bet we would have documentaries on that game too.

NASDAQ Gallery (@TP_TIGER98) reportedBending Spoons($BSP ) is best understood as a software holding company built around recurring cash flow. Its playbook is direct: buy a digital business with proven demand, rebuild the product and cost base, improve pricing and conversion, then reinvest the cash into another acquisition. Evernote, Vimeo, WeTransfer, Remini and AOL are assets inside that operating system. The numbers make the model clear. In Q1 2026, subscriptions produced 84% of revenue, advertising 12%, and other sources 4%. Revenue grew from $387 million in 2023 to $1.31 billion in 2025, with acquisitions driving much of the increase. The figure I keep coming back to is customer tenure. In Q1 2026, 48% of subscription revenue came from customers with at least five years of tenure, including 28% from customers with at least ten. That gives Bending Spoons time to make deep changes to products it plans to own for the long run. The investment case comes down to execution: buy well, improve the asset, and compound the cash. The risk follows the same logic. Acquisition-led growth only compounds if management keeps choosing the right targets and improves them without weakening products that users already depend on.

Jason Wagner (@nialscorva) reported@hog_lawyer @SamJSchoenberg @JeremiahDJohns All of that is in Fairfax, next county over. Data centers in Loudoun is largely the legacy of UUNET, AOL, Network Solutions, etc based out of the Dulles Corridor. The density of connectivity and power is self-reinforcing. Big defense contractors are small part of it.

ladywaranon (@ladywaranon) reported@hippyresident He’s so weird and annoying. He’s sells a VPN and steals other people’s work when he’s not totally making crap up. It’s all about a worthless VPN. He might as well be giving away old AOL infected software with it. I hacked AOL’s mainframe computer. I changed the font size.
