  @0hour1 I loved AOl. It was my first internet service. Dial up was brutal but it's all I knew of back then.

  Also so glad we didn’t have social media (MySpace aside by like senior year) when I was in HS. Chatting **** on AOL was bad enough but at least it was private.

  @sean_rohacik @FirstNameJ0hn @Sting Definitely no. Turner executives didn't want wrestling on their network. With the Aol/T.W on the horizon, WCW was doomed to fall regardless.

  @BexWords @RedKingRuairi75 They’re everywhere. Were you on AOL back in the day? Bunch of lower middle to working class or poor married men hitting on minors. The class and education-based skew is uncomfortable to parse without sounding like an *******.

  Everyone is laughing at Ryan Cohen's math. They shouldn't be. He just proved he understands the market better than anyone on Wall Street. January 2021: A Reddit user called DeepF*ckingValue posts a $53,000 GameStop position. The math says the stock is worth $4. It goes to $483 in two weeks. Melvin Capital, a hedge fund that bet on math, loses everything. Robinhood shuts down the buy button. Congress holds hearings. The system breaks. Nobody fixes it. 2026: Ryan Cohen, who became GameStop's CEO after walking into that rubble, offers $56 billion to buy eBay. His company is worth $11 billion. eBay is worth $46 billion. On CNBC, the host, Sorkin, asks where the money comes from. Cohen says "half cash, half stock." Sorkin says the math doesn't work. Cohen says he doesn't understand the question. The whole sequence becomes a meme, an icon of finance TV right away. 1999: AOL buys Time Warner for $164 billion. Steve Case calls it "the most important deal in history." It destroys both companies within two years. The man who got lucky once always starts believing luck is a business model. What is true is that in the attention economy, a good story beats a good balance sheet. Cohen knows this.

  @LargeLa6182 @Starlink Old Sat tech here. I finally got out in 2005 because terrestrial options totally killed the market. I installed a ton of AOL+ systems. It was hughsnet on G3, got 400kb down and an analog modem was the uplink. Those things were awesome at the time!! Personally I had 1.5mb DSL lol

  @Dward1129 @nostalgiaa File-sharing aside the free AOL trial software would **** up your PC

  @YouTubeCreators The most Unfriendly Company towards creators in the history of content making. Just because you're a giant now it does not mean you will remain that way. Remember: AOL, Blockbuster, Sears etc. Bad customer services, AI algorhythms and poor company behavior will eventually catch up.

  @jayroo69 @0hour1 Yeah it was over supposed threats I had made on AOL that were just comments taken out of context. The charges were eventually dropped but I was facing actual jail time and a felony charge. They never said a word about all the **** in the computers though. I had 3.
