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

  • 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

  • greenSLLIME 🤮ghoul🤮 (@greenSLLIME) reported from Chicago, Illinois

    I keep a drawer full of broken aol discs to cut a ***** wit

  • 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.

  • 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

  • AdamKoralik Adam Koralik (@AdamKoralik) reported from Chicago, Illinois

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

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • ladufurrena ladlady (@ladufurrena) reported

    @Humanstein 1998, at a small office, drafting and art supply/gift store called “Lundberg’s Downtown.” It was one of two Internet Service Providers (ISP) in the rural area. I was pretty good at instructing people how to install AOL (28 then 56k) on their home computers.

  • sunstarsys SunStar Systems (@sunstarsys) reported

    @HappyBuddha19 @eshaLegal We were just trying to socialize and create intellectual value for us and our peers, not do homework for the lazy sobs every other ISP threw into the mix after AOL led the way. People just said **** on Usenet at that point not for topicality, but solely for audience reach.

  • efan78 Ethan Kristopher-Hartley 🏳️‍🌈🇬🇧🇪🇺 (@efan78) reported

    @JaeKay ****! I hadn't thought of that. Oh wait, Lumiya's no longer available so he won't be able to get it on his phone. Phew. Maybe we should start sending him the old AOL CDs and get him on AIM? 😜

  • mrsallnut 🏳️‍🌈 MrsAllnut🏳️‍⚧️ (@mrsallnut) reported

    @parscale You've never had the privilege of having AOL cut off your internet bc your credit card expired & it shows. These things all have contractual obligations. Read the fine print & quit your puling.

  • nodusormu Jules ☃️ bIm (@nodusormu) reported

    I used to get in SO much trouble cause everyone in the house could hear the dial up noise when I tried to login at night... through AOL lmao

  • theindexseries The Index Series (@theindexseries) reported

    And the right of @facebook, @twitter, etc to do this is outlined in their terms of service. But hey. Don't even go that far. Anyone who was ever on LiveJournal, or on AOL, or on a topic forum in the early 2000s, knows all this already. 7/

  • Jwelsh8 jwelsh8 (@Jwelsh8) reported

    @Humanstein I’m wondering if mine was an AOL room, but I can’t nail down the timeline. Definitely read rec.music.dead in 1994 and 1995, and started to be active in rec.music.phish in 1996, maybe? I do remember browsing Hypercard stacks in 1993. But that wasn’t a “community.” @neddyo

  • HomophobicAsuka temmie (@HomophobicAsuka) reported

    ik ive said this 5000 times but the fact that people are going to joke about discord in 10-20 years the same way we joke about aol and myspace and **** today is so ******* weird

  • BotJesting Jesting Russian Bot (@BotJesting) reported

    @AndersBjork2 @IDFSaturn No because it is not centralized. IRC is literally a part of the internet and it's how you would chat with people back in the day if you didn't use a centralized service like AOL, Compuserve or Prodigy.

  • JaneKizabiMD Jane Kizabi 🐝 (@JaneKizabiMD) reported

    @goldengateblond One by one all the social media platforms are shutting him out. In the end, he'll wind up having to get his fix in some 90s AOL chatroom that inexplicably escaped being shut down.
