  • KingThelonious Thelonious Martin™ (@KingThelonious) reported from Chicago, Illinois

    @streamlabs Not maintaining 30FPS resulting my streams looking like I’m on AOL connection. I wasn’t having that issue before.

  • thelastpinkcar Helena (@thelastpinkcar) reported from Chicago, Illinois

    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.

  • IvanVega IvanVega.eth ✨ (@IvanVega) reported from Chicago, Illinois

    @alcidezx3 had my name as well (IvanVega1) but there were others. We never just had one. Was @DoctaSlick your AOL handle, Nikki? 🤔

  • _MissValdes The Pillowhouse Princess of Lys (@_MissValdes) reported from Chicago, Illinois

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

  • IamEricT IamEric+ Streaming Service only 4.99/month (@IamEricT) reported from River Forest, Illinois

    @swyx @jaredpalmer First software I ever wrote in Corp America was to make sure a large Telco could create a bill supporting that many digits… the intended customer persona: AOL

  • via_southside Golly I’m Gully 🇱🇷 (@via_southside) reported from Chicago, Illinois

    ****, AOL Cuties and Thugs chat days.

  • greenSLLIME 🤮ghoul🤮 (@greenSLLIME) reported from Chicago, Illinois

    I keep a drawer full of broken aol discs to cut a ***** wit

  • WahidTazudeen Wahid Tazudeen (@WahidTazudeen) reported from Chicago, Illinois

    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.

  • donjensenep Don P. Jensen Jr (@donjensenep) reported from Elmwood Park, Illinois

    @J0hnnyXm4s I think the problem here people are too use o 40 or less characters. It is also difficult for many to type what they want for fear of that digital trail. We have also come to the point were us old school bbs and aol chat room people are becoming less and less. I often have to

  • TRIhunna #TriHerbal Woman✨ (@TRIhunna) reported from Chicago, Illinois

    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

  • AdamKoralik Adam Koralik (@AdamKoralik) reported from Chicago, Illinois

    @RNeedre @AOL I've never found one for sale to be honest.

  • JamesZekis James Zekis (@JamesZekis) reported from Oak Park, Illinois

    @TheNotoriousLEX My memories of that race is mostly being in AOL chat rooms with people screaming at each other about steroids and Chip Caray with the worst HR call in history when McGwire broke the record. I don't want a documentary to color my experience.

  • OGtankman Frank (@OGtankman) reported

    Hot take: The fundamental issues with ETH can't be solved and we are witnessing its last bull cycle before it's replaced by a chain with superior technology. Developers will realign their incentives and move as a result. AOL came before Google. Myspace before Facebook.

  • Deplorableanon7 Anonymous blogger (@Deplorableanon7) reported

    @kyleferraro99 I have been using internet handicapping since it was AOL dial up. Never before has there been such a rush & push for judgment before facts. Even with Navarro & Servis it took time. This was a pure lynching before facts on @BobBaffert.

  • ActuatedMS Actuated Marketing (@ActuatedMS) reported

    @OUnation @CoachBobStoops @AOL No, I was in the Community Action Team. Had to take calls from members who were banned for bad behavior, (like in chat rooms) and called to see why we cancelled their account.

  • phemestre Phelipe Mestre (@phemestre) reported

    @AOL I keep getting SPAM sent to my AOL account which keeps forwarding them to my other email accounts previously connected. No one on your team has taken the time to give me support and the feature to stop email forwarding is no longer there.

  • SupraMiqote Calf Skin Rider (@SupraMiqote) reported

    Well, my xbox gamertag I made since I was little is on very thin ice. AOL wont let me get on to my email account which was the recovery email for my gamertag. Microsoft wont do anything about it so the only thing keeping my GT afloat is my Xbox 360 and XB1 auto sign in 🥲

  • curvethots ⟠Palis⟠🐍 (@curvethots) reported

    @NFTbark I don’t think they should be valued as a service even if other projects incorporate more service-like attributes. We’re still very early and art generally ages very well once adopted, I feel it’s the most anti-fragile element long term. MySpace and AOL have no such attributes

  • slabstr slaBstr (@slabstr) reported

    It’s irresponsible to suggest $ETH is a comparable risk/reward play as $BTC. Bitcoin has no competitors for what it does. I own both. But I can see ETH going the way of AOL/MySpace, whereas BTC is Coca-Cola. Give the **** to your grandkids…

  • christowallace2 🐢.learner (@christowallace2) reported

    @cryptjoe9 AOL on dial up was so cool at the time but damn looking back it was trash

  • jessidoyle jessie doyle (@jessidoyle) reported

    .@AOLSupportHelp hackers grabbed my 90 year old father's email address,now spoofing it with one extra letter & emailing all his ancient senior citizen friends. Please #AOL you can do better than this. We are living in 2021 after all. With any "help" you require payment

  • jnicely jnicely (@jnicely) reported

    @stevesarner @rishad I don’t think they can pivot, just like AOL couldn’t. This system eats it self. It will be a slow death. But that organization cannot creatively scale quick enough to compete with what’s coming. showing up with a Meta account will be like having an AOL email address
