    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.

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

    @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.

    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

    @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.

    @getwhatugive @LynAldenContact You’re collapsing the product and the protocol. BlackRock/MSTR make money if demand for bitcoin rises. Demand rises when access gets easier: brokerage accounts, 401ks, treasuries, Lightning, hardware wallets. Shrinking the buyer pool would hurt their bags. That’s the opposite incentive of “reduce access.” Early internet had AOL too. Walled gardens expanded the user base first. The open network still won because the protocol wasn’t owned by AOL.Same here. An ETF is not a modem ban. Anyone can still run a node, hold keys, and send sats. Institutions can offer a wrapper. They cannot revoke the chain. “Gemini agrees” is not an argument. The music-sharing analogy also fails: Napster was illegal and centralized. Bitcoin settles on a public ledger. You don’t sterilize that by listing a ticker.

    @hetmehtaa I have an AOL install disc somewhere Will that help?

    @MapQuest Talk about a blast from the past. Didn’t know you guys still existed. You must be busy hanging out with AOL and floppy discs in the land of outdated crap.

    This collided with AOL’s vision to own the future of the internet. Unlike today’s internet services that act as gateways to the online world AOL wanted to control the internet service itself — and also be the place where people spent most of their online time. Users came to AOL for: News. Entertainment. Shopping. Sports. Chat rooms etc.

    @gatorgar As an AOL internet baby, I must confess I never saw much of a point in books. In fact I learned the lion's share of my grammar and spelling from AOL chat rooms. I was never a huge fan of fiction (basically I never read fiction) and everything I wanted to know what on the internet. People have this thing still, like, "Oh, well if you don't read books, you're an idiot..." I've been glued to the computer since the internet started. I've been 'reading' my entire life.

    @EconomicTimes Ignorant media, the amount of Rs5 Cr was never a "fine" but a compensation paid by AOL.

    @MapQuest Holy ****!!! Does Netscape still exist too? What about AOL?

    @jwalkermobile All but one, I never had an AOL email address.

    @brockpierson That modem is too new. It doesn't have any microphones. Go back to the source with an acoustic coupler modem. Of course, you're going to have a little trouble getting a working telephone handset and analog phone line. At least the AoL CDs will be easy to find.
