    @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.

    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.

    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? 🤔

    @streamlabs Not maintaining 30FPS resulting my streams looking like I’m on AOL connection. I wasn’t having that issue before.

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

    ****, AOL Cuties and Thugs chat days.

    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

    @TimothyImholt I've *definitely* never had an AOL address. Why would I? I had access via university.

  • spacexfan_paul
    Paul Obembe (@spacexfan_paul) reported

    @oelma__ Never had AOL, or a Water bed.

  • GrandaddySpeak1
    TheArtisReport (@GrandaddySpeak1) reported

    It’s 2026. You know you your Internet service sucks when you had a better Internet connection during the old AOL days. And it didn’t cost as much then, either.

    @oelma__ 19/20. Never had an AOL address that I can recall.

  • pinzero63

    @oelma__ 19, I never had an AOL address, but I bet I still have an AOL floppy somewhere, does that make it 20?

  • janejanekitt
    jescatsrule (@janejanekitt) reported

    @oelma__ I still have an AOL address. The only thing I never used was a waterbed.

    @RetroTechorDie At a stretch, I could understand them wanting to shut down the Nina network if the Italians plan to revive AOL chat. But going after someone who makes a video, especially one with a positive tone toward the AOL brand, makes absolutely no sense.

  • XThatMomX

    @yamecaffe Kid? AOL / ICQ / YAHOO people still exist. Slow your roll.

    @qaggnews @ColonelTowner @MarkEDeschaine True, back then the community was a lot smaller and better connected in a way, it was just us computer geeks, after all, just getting connected to the internet was difficult until Aol and Bix. I helped bring cable modems and digital set top boxes to the public but that wasn't until mid 90s. Before then, a fast connection was a 44.1Mb T3 at work, or a blazing 128kb from home, you could with some trouble get a T1... A fast CPU ran faster than 2MHz... (not GHz) The fastest link, mid 80s the Boston globe could get going from one side of town to the other was a T2 microwave link, 6Mb, so until Bill Gates started selling pc's to anyone, it was a close and honest community, not without the odd ones, but anti social was the 'uunet' red line I guess. How long did the gets() vulnerability remain unexploited? Years. People didn't break into other systems as a usual thing. That was 40 years ago though and things just aren't the same. The Arduino crowd strikes me as having some of the hobbyist sort of enthusiasm you'd see back then.
