  • 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.

  • 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.

  • _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.

  • 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

  • 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.

  • 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.

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

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

  • 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

  • dtheblerd Dave ⚜️ (@dtheblerd) reported

    @EbKoizumi @garrettkidney Valid criticism, but there is more responsibility for TNA/Impact issues than WCW, IMO. Impact became “WWE Light” and not the upstart wrestling company that got a TV deal in the late 2000s. If AOL-Time Warner did not merge, WCW wouldn’t have shut down.

  • ballmatthew Matthew Ball (@ballmatthew) reported

    AOL never argued the 'net by explaining TCP/IP or internetworking standards, but instead use cases + catchphrases ("You've Got Mail") Similarly, every company described the Internet opportunity differently because internetworking standards weren't relevant - business opps were

  • LSDrapperGOON BrunkDastard.eth (@LSDrapperGOON) reported

    @financeguy74 I sent you a message on aol instant messenger to tell you it was down. Did you not get it?

  • evilratperson not weird (@evilratperson) reported

    i will never trust a grown man giving me his snapchat off grindr… how about your AOL messenger that might be more in your lane idk

  • PeteHausen Peter Nelson (@PeteHausen) reported

    @DemonEvilMuscle @ReneusMeister @nodqdotcom Why didn't AOL/time Warner want it anymore? Bischoff had a deal in place to buy WCW if he found another network to show WCW. Why wouldn't any other network touch WCW? Was that AOL/time warners fault too? This "lost cause" WCW myth is funny.

  • emilyloveskale Emily C. haunts themself (@emilyloveskale) reported

    @vera_dragonmuse hahahah, i got in SO MUCH TROUBLE for a couple AOL bills.

  • TRMORRS Tom Ⓥ (@TRMORRS) reported

    Does anyone else have issues getting new AOL Mail on iPhone?!

  • SF_Nurse 🌁🌉SFNurse🌉🌁✊🏾🤟🏽 (@SF_Nurse) reported

    @Leilanni_Moore Yes. It comes from the moisture. Switch to thr Nike band which has circular holes in rows of three. That prevents the moisture and aol es the problem.

  • BloggingBitcoin ₿logging₿itcoin (@BloggingBitcoin) reported

    @Trim_Bot @_Champuru_ @AlgodTrading You can't stop the bitcoin circular economy. This dude just doesn't know what he is talking about. Sure, not many people use BTC as a MOV now, but this is like saying you could easily shut down the Internet in 1994 by shutting down AOL.

  • airgups23 Shiv (@airgups23) reported from Lafayette, California

    @AdtechGod 3 reasons I'm right: 1. The #s are going down. 2. FB has never shown they can innovate, all 'innovation' has come through acq. Gov't won't let them acq anymore. 3. Sheryl is gone and and Mark is ET. 4. Metaverse is too far away. In 2000 no one thought AOL could fail either.
