    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

    @cooIcatz In an era of AOL dial up internet at best too so if you weren't scouring for info you had little reason to doubt it. Would never work today they bottled lightning there.

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

    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.

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

    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.

    @dr_bouchard @mediainfluence9 @JuddLegum AI isn't a traditional bubble. AI is in its infancy - like looking at AOL and saying you'll never shop on the internet.

  • BradleySmith93

    @RetroTechDreams Would play the **** out turret defense custom games in this with AOL dial up internet. Then I'd end up disconnecting from games due to my sisters unplugging the internet to use the phoneline to call up boys. Good times.

  • MedicFL1
    James Boyd (@MedicFL1) reported

    NETSCAPE was like AOL, Browser type systems - that all changed in 2000. Using your Phone line was fun - 20 minuet downloads for a Bitmap / Jpeg picture. No one today could "put up" with how slow things used to be. Websites were made with Wordpress and were limited to say the least.

    @TheGrillGeek I never had AOL but a different version of online messenger. Never owned a waterbed but have experienced it. I never owned a record player but seen it in action. Does that give me 19 or brings down my score to 16? Also, I still use a checkbook 👵

  • statuescrumbled
    Nicole (@statuescrumbled) reported

    @BrianEntin Happy to have you in Loudoun. We were also told these awful buildings would only be up for ten years. The reason the built them here was bc of the original AOL infrastructure which never made any sense to me and is now clearly a lie. They have RUINED our beautiful county.

    @TheGrillGeek 19......never had an AOL address either

    @CodeByPoonam "most companies won't do this" actually most tech companies do this. AOL also minted thousands of paper millionaire employees, including janitors. then they acquired Time Warner and the stock went down every day after

  • _Kadmos1
    MichaelJensen1 (@_Kadmos1) reported

    It was dumb for the AOL Time Warner, Disney-Fox, and AT&T Time Warner mergers to happen. It is wrong for Paramount Skydance trying to get WB Discovery. Fox Corp getting Tubi was fine but Roku is not. Reason I am fine with Fox Corp getting Tubi is because the buy-out was a lot smaller. Now, if the Fox Corp never bought Tubi but just bought Roku, I would be a bit less opposed because they would have one less big streaming platform.

    @xuzin3sefh I mean, I was in tech for so long running companies with a 56K modem you know back in the old days I mean, I ran companies during the time of AOL dial up America online. I don’t even know if you’ve heard of that but eventually, I got so burned out on it. I couldn’t even I played games Xbox PlayStation PC everything for 40 years you know it’s like after a while. I got so tired. I couldn’t even pick up the damn mouse for the keyboard. I just like I can’t do it. I’d buy like a PlayStation, which sits there for like two years before I even opened it and then I didn’t even play people think just working on PCs is nice and simple and oh no it’s not. It’s much more stressful people better realize they can burn themselves out permanently if they’re not careful.

    @hetmehtaa The issue is that email itself is not inherently secure. While the practitioner's email system may be encrypted and compliant, there is no guarantee that a patient's personal AOL, Yahoo, or Gmail account has the same level of security. Once information leaves the provider's secure environment and is delivered to an unsecured personal email account, the risk of unauthorized access increases significantly.
