  • 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.

    @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

  • 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

    @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.

  • TOMBZZZ 💀🌙🛸 (@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.

  • 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

  • davidcrais David Crais PMP CMPE (@davidcrais) reported

    If you’re bio only includes tenure at #SiliconValley name brand A-list startups over the past 10 years, your value is about to drop precipitously. Post-Covid it’s a different world, eras end. By 2002, no one gave a damn about anyone who was an AOL or LotusNotes veteran. #tech

  • MorningsBite MorningsBite (@MorningsBite) reported

    Really starting to hate @aolmail. Been with them since the 90’s but thinking I may have to change. They updated their mobile app to a format that is stupid and not user friendly and now are changing the mobile browser to the same. #AOL #HatethenewAOLmail

  • sdasampson Scott Sampson (@sdasampson) reported

    @corybarlog @therealcliffyb You mean multiple Oscar-winning epic Hudson Hawk, recently added to the Criterion Collection? I just rewatched it on Blockbuster Direct. I'm surprised you don't know about the Hudsonverse. Disney keeps trying to reboot it but AOL TimeWarner will never sell.
