  The early days of AOL were just as bad as current social media except we didn't have it everywhere we went

  If you follow the debates in France, Bavaria and the UK, institutions that still care about sovereignty in police and intelligence are struggling to justify their Palantir contracts. Karp applies the same rhetorical operation he once ran on the Frankfurt School to dismiss open-weight bare-metal local AI: autonomous, private, sovereign exactly at the nation-state layer - where Palantir instead builds a global empire on critical data, pushing proprietary “ontology” across military, police and surveillance with zero open source, weaponizing the arguments of the systemic opponent as travesty. The US hyperscaler bubble doubles down on proprietary monoliths defending their shrinking moats, while technology moves the other way. They all want to become the SGI, Sun, Digital or AOL of the AI age.

  2000–2002: Bubble, Terror & Scandal 2000: NASDAQ peaks at 5,048 (March 10) and begins a 78% collapse. AOL announces the $165B Time Warner merger — the worst deal ever 2001: 9/11 closes markets until Sept 17 — the longest shutdown since 1914. Enron collapses in December 2002: WorldCom's $11B fraud → Sarbanes-Oxley. The bear bottoms in October, down 49%

  @muheediva01 Hmm, a lot of people seem to think Wi-Fi=internet for some reason. There was no wireless internet. It was landline POTS at your house and maybe if you were lucky you had access to a business or school that could afford to lease a T1. In home broadband wasn't a thing yet, it was super expensive, and the internet was often gated through online service providers like AOL, and the original OSP's like Prodigy and CompuServe were still around. This is before even napster, so p2p music downloads weren't really happening yet either. You could play Doom, Wolfenstein 3D, minesweeper or Tetris on your PC. If you had Prodigy you could play MadMaze. The original Civilization and Sid Meier's Pirates! were out then as well. Most days during the summer I would go out and try and get a pickup basketball or baseball game going. If that failed I'd read a book or build **** with legos. After dinner if I wasn't in trouble and had done my chores I could play videogames. I had two sisters I had to share PC and internet time with. It wasn't super common to have a TV in your bedroom, and I didn't. So if you wanted to watch a show or a movie you had to gain consensus.

  Not every inbox shows it yet. Gmail, Yahoo and AOL support BIMI today. Apple Mail and Outlook are limited or still evolving. Setup is free. The VMC is the cost that actually stops most people.

  @unreMARKLEble Too bad AOL (what? They still exist?) got her age wrong by about a decade!
