  @PeterFonseca They sound terrible-a mix of old bad Nintendo music and AOL dial up noise

  @whymyPPhurt6969 @PanthersGamer @GhillieYT They will never "pull the license" if u don't break TOS. Even if they cease to exist. U'd still have access. Just like AOL email still exists even though they don't. They just leave your username open. Breaking TOS is what "revocable license" is all about not just when they want.

  My most vidid first memories of the internet are me and friends going into AOL chats and immediately being bored, ******* with them however we could because it was just boring. TBF we would **** with people IRL in the same way most of the time. It took longer to get that bored

  @SarahSevans2000 19, somehow never had an AOL address. I think I skipped straight to yahoo or Hotmail.

  Gather round children, let me tell you of the Netscape Navigator In the Year of our Lord Early-1990s, one could access Bulletin Board Systems (BBS) -- essentially, a highly-selective Reddit -- BY PHONE, not the internet. You also played your friends in Warcraft 2 by phone. If you had email it likely came through a university (or, in time, your ISP) "Walled Gardens" were built out at AOL and Prodigy to facilitate user-friendly graphical interactions over the most of the 'net you were gonna get your hands on. But then... Netscape. FREE YOUR MIND was stamped all over the thing. You could do what you wanted, when you wanted it. Just a whiff of the icon could turn that frown upside down. You could guess the full URL for the admin login portal for major companies, then go to the human-legible cookie file on your machine and change the access granted value to true! When you opened someone's computer and they didn't have Netscape, your Promethean introduction of technological fire established your reputation as a true hacker We exchanged the latest search engines: WebCrawler, AltaVista, Dogpile. Jerry's Guide, even. Real wizard-tier esoterica. College students had access to unlimited bandwidth. A normal chump at home was sitting on 1-3% of 1 Mbps, or maybe 1/8 of 1 Mbps if he was a high roller with an ISDN line. But college students had T1s (1.5 Mbps) or even T3s (45 Mbps for a whole school, maybe even just a dorm). With all those sweet sweet kbps, you hit up IRC and your beautifully personal Geocities page. You used Winzip and Winamp (llama hater!). You had ASCII text art in your sig. Later in the 90s, you burned mix CDs for friends with Nero's Burning ROM and downloaded wallpapers from Digital Blasphemy. You had Juno mail, then Hotmail and Yahoo, to FREE YOUR MIND and take your email with you wherever you wanted to go. And at the heart of all this: Netscape Navigator, a.k.a Excalibur, a.k.a. Eternally-On-Evaluation, a.k.a. the 3rd-best piece of freedom I experienced after exploring our drainage ditches and getting my own bike It was truly special. Thank you @pmarca This site best viewed with Netscape Navigator v1.22N

  I “walked” onto the internet using AOL online, the dial-up internet service that functions via telephone wire. It’s a phone call. Used to be 14.4 kbps and that is way lower than 30 Mb of now. Via cable or fiber optics. I am completely just a person. We reset the internet.
