    Geez @verizon I pay $330/month for 6 devices on a family plan, and I can only use my jetpack for approximately two weeks of normal internet usage, and then you slow me down to pre-AOL dial-up speeds. Just hate this. That's not fair at all.

    Please update your app. It’s AOL dial up type slow @ShopifySupport. It literally crashes every 3 commands. Also, it would behoove you to make it an option to be able to print labels/ packing slips in bulk as opposed to which day they’re purchased Printing shouldn’t be a hassle

    I’m just waiting for Nelly’s shit to start making the aol startup sound.

    I don’t know why my internet is running so slow. I have the latest version of Netscape Navigator installed with AOL webcrawler as backup.

    19. I never had an AOL address.

    Everyone worries over EU startups flipping to the US. One Italian company is buying up American ones instead. You probably opened three of their apps this week. Bending Spoons is a Milan company most people outside Italy might never have heard of. Founded in 2013. Started as an app studio. Then it turned into an acquisition machine. The list is close to absurd now: AOL, Vimeo, Evernote, WeTransfer, Meetup, Eventbrite, Brightcove, Komoot, StreamYard. Recently they added Airtable. Over 50 deals in total. Most of the marquee names are American. All of it runs out of a single office in Milan. We all see European startups do the reverse Delaware flip. Move from the EU to incorporate in the US, chase US capital, hand control across the Atlantic. Bending Spoons runs it the other way. It buys American brands and moves ownership and control to Europe. You do not see that often. Bravi, @bendingspoons !! I run a European company, and we have a subsidiary in Milan. Nothing against US startups, but I want my kids to grow up in a Europe that buys, not only one that gets bought.

    Just had the craziest dream about my ex’s telling me they moved to the aol near Tel Aviv and it’s haunted by monitoring spirits and how it’s very important that I talk to my ex alone. It was so bad that my ex need someone to help him get dressed and he wouldn’t look at anyone

    @Matt_Pinner I never had AOL but the rest of them I knew and used them all the time so 19 out of 20 ain’t bad

    @Latterdaytruth The video clip of the TV show Cheers where Rebecca is asking why more men can’t bring flowers and is misheard as Mormons: back in the early days of of AOL I found the clip and edited it so instead of saying “I wish someone would send me some damn roses” it says “I wish someone would send me some some roses” so I could share it with my in-laws who wouldn’t have appreciated the “damn” Now my version is the most common one you can find on the Internet.

    230 people. One inflatable boat. New record. The dinghy was already carrying 50 people when it stopped to pick up more — around 30 fell into the water during the scramble to board. French rescuers watched it leave “buckling under the swell.” It broke the previous record of 165, set just last month. Here’s the number nobody’s posting today: total Channel crossings in 2026 are down 43% from this time last year. Fewer boats. More people crammed into each one. The smugglers didn’t lose the trade — they just made the math worse per boat. (ITV / AOL, Aug 10, 2026)
