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

Helena (@thelastpinkcar) reported from Chicago, IllinoisGeez @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.

Exencial Research Partners (@exencial_RP) reportedOpenAI Is Forecasting Something That Has Never Happened in 75 Years of Market History Morgan Stanley's Mauboussin studied every 5-year sales growth run for US public companies since 1950. Nearly 19,300 firm-period observations. Fastest ever: AOL at 103% CAGR, and even that was a merger artifact with Time Warner. OpenAI's projection: $13.1bn (2025) → $284bn (2030). An 85% CAGR from a base no company that size has ever compounded from. The earlier $184bn-by-2029 forecast implied 118%. The mean 5-year nominal CAGR in the data: 6.9%, with 11.1% standard deviation. OpenAI's forecast sits 9 to 10 standard deviations out. Mauboussin's caveat is fair, base rates are dynamic and the past doesn't make it impossible. But it would be the single greatest growth achievement in the history of public markets. Price it accordingly. Base Rates of Nominal and Real 5-Year Sales Growth for Firms With $2-5 Billion in Sales, 1950-2025

Nameless G (@RealTmDaddy) reportedSo on the advice from some on here, I have decided to get a "side piece". A quick search on AOL. com for codeword "maid services" and a woman will come to your house and do all the things your woman isn't there to do. For an extra fee, you can even get a *********. My wife has mentioned getting a "maid service" before, but I thought she had experimented with that in college & outgrew it. I've hired this side piece to come do her thing while I am at the airport picking my wife up. I hope my wife doesnt have some intuition that I cheated (on the house cleaning)

Luke (@LukeC4rdin4L) reportedI came back to say. **** aol. Im beat down by technology rn. Old passwords and accounts. Multiple problems. Cant access offline BTC wallet. Steam Vac on CS. Cant get into my account. Brother.

ReOpenPa (@reopenpa) reported@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.

MXNBC✌🏻 (@nothiniseasy3) reported@ThrillaRilla369 You forgot AOL😡😈😱 YOU COULD NEVER GET RID OF IT!💀

Dan Olson (@olson_dan) reported@Terry_Hendrix I am too young for BBS (seriously). I tried it once when I was 12 and on an AOL trial but never got anywhere.

George Cheng (@MrGeorgeCheng) reportedAOL had 30M users, and the internet locked down. Then the open web ate it. Anthropic and OpenAI are playing AOL right now. The Fable 5 rug pull just showed every enterprise exactly what it looks like to depend on closed AI. The off switch exists. Someone else holds it. Llama, Mistral, Qwen - they're not "almost as good" anymore. For most enterprise workloads, they're good enough. And they run on your own hardware. Apple MLX + NVIDIA RTX Spark laptops + rapidly improving open weights = the mainframe-to-PC transition, happening in real time. Open-source AI will do to Frontier Labs what the open internet did to AOL. History doesn't always repeat itself, but it certainly rhymes. The only question is how long you keep building on someone else's infrastructure before you start owning yours.

el friki de la parrilla (@TheGrillGeek) reported19 for me. Never had an AOL address. Do I get a bonus point because I still use a fax machine?
