Wahid Tazudeen (@WahidTazudeen) reported from Chicago, IllinoisI don’t know why my internet is running so slow. I have the latest version of Netscape Navigator installed with AOL webcrawler as backup.
-
#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
-
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.

💀🌙🛸 (@TOMBZZZ) reported from Chicago, Illinois@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.

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.

Greg (@gkamstra) reported@gordie_smith Eventbrite was a horrible public company. AOL is an ice cube. You can make really good money buying them cheap and running them off (or turning them around), but it works way better in private markets w 5-10 year horizons. Most of the companies that do this well (that I’m aware of) are privately held. Opentext would be an example of a public one. Super low multiples, pretty crappy performance (although did well early on when it was smaller). I wish them a ton of luck, but I just expect over a multi-year horizon, the market will decide it hates the stock even if they make good decisions and create value.

Zachary Sheldon (@zdsheldon) reported@sfmcguire79 Saying that a Claude subscription can teach you how to think with AI is like saying that using AOL instant Messenger teaches you to be a network engineer. Elite schools should teach the tech that makes the product work, not lock kids into a subscription platform for life.

Donald Shelton (@PrplGld) reported@hthieblot That AOL home page was a virtual prison cell. Looked at it once, never went back.

**** (@john7buchanan) reported@hthieblot Freechatnow Aol (for sign in and messenger) Kazza and limewire to get music and burn them onto the discs Simple,happier world back then 👍🏻

Paul Walsh (@Paul__Walsh) reported1. Most parents will let teens setup their own phone 2. The rest will give their kids a used phone that's already setup for an adult This has to be the single most stupid thing I've seen in online child safety since the start of my tech career in 1996 when I started at AOL.

Investor in chaos and shortages (@Toronto242M) reportedYou're judging AI the way people judged the internet during the dial-up era. AOL needed CDs to access the internet. It was noisy and slow. The Netscape browser was primitive. Broadband didn't exist. Yet nobody concluded the internet wasn't the future. If you weren't around in the early days of the internet, I suggest you research how it evolved. AI is in the same stage today. Capabilities will improve, costs will fall, and infrastructure will scale. Nobody quit the internet race because it was expensive. Nobody will quit the AI race either. In fact more particpants will enter. One day there will be an AI app that is a must have. Some kid is probably working on it his garage right now. @jeffbezos Look forward. $NVDA $MU $CRDO $MRVL

Dan Shapiro (@DanTheFinanceMn) reportedBitcoin - it’s not a pretty picture right now. It’s been in a massive sell off since October of last year. It does have dynamic support at that red line, which is the 200 simple moving average. I would expect some sort of bounce there, but there is no “has to” in the markets and it can certainly go lower, even much lower.  My problem with bitcoin is its usability. I’ve never used bitcoin to buy anything and very few places accept bitcoin as payment. And when an asset class can move that quickly, it is certainly not a store of value, at least not yet. So when people say it’s digital Gold, I just don’t know, I don’t see it yet. Until I can actually use it, I can’t get excited about it. There is value to the technology I know that for sure but I’m not educated enough in crypto to know exactly what that is. The market will tell me when it’s time to buy crypto. Crypto reminds me of the .COM error of 2000, you could see the future, but you knew it was a while away from being practical. Most of the names that were all hyped up are no longer around like AOL or Infoseek or Netscape. With the .COM crash Amazon went to a dollar a share. OMG imagine where you would be right now if you bought Amazon at a dollar a share. We may be approaching a similar situation in bitcoin, I’m just not sure where this asset class bottoms. Don’t forget with the Internet, we were all hyped up about it in 1995 when it was just coming out, but it wasn’t until 2000 when all the mania started happening in the internet stocks which led to the eventual stock market crash of 2000.
