  @MickPuck @AOL I never really noticed when logging into my AOL emails. But I've been looking over the last few days. It's another outlet pedding crazy clickbait bollocks. It's a shame - I quite like having a slightly unusual AOL email address

  I used that name to on a game called Phantasy Star Online. I plugged a GameShark full of mangled code I copied by hand off some aol site. Big mess but got it to work well enough to kill other players or freeze their game by casting magic in brightly lit areas. Too many pixels? Games crashes, can’t render it. Problem was neither could my game! What to do? Lobby teleporter. Hit em with the grants magic spell just as you also click teleport back to game lobby server place. Ophelia 14. Place to be. I also robbed em all of their weapons. Then later gave them out to noobs for frees. I made a game and laid all my goodies in a pile and said take what you want. Fun stuff!

  @johncardillo 1) No you didn't win, and the court records show it 2) Still not my name 3) Let's dig into your stupid claims even as they are. Your left screenshot, which I already went and pulled from the courts, shows the case was dismissed due to identity theft, NOT a judgement (see first attachment). Congratulations, John, you just committed defamation against that man. 4) Your second screenshot defeats itself. I've went ahead and marked it up for you (see 2nd attachment). You keep posting a WITHDRAWAL of an attempt. Now I know you don't know what that means since your FICO score is sub-500 and you can't buy a house, but that means it was withdrawn due to error. If you do a public records search, the bank in question stated that the note was sold between holding companies and the payments he was making weren't being properly applied to the new account, not that he wasn't paying. Meanwhile, there is nothing in the court history that says the judgement AOL got against you was dismissed or even satisfied. So you're lying. You're really bad at this. And oh, by the way, Johnny Boy, I'm gonna go ahead and forward all of this to him, cause now he has a rock solid defamation suit against you. And he's litigious AF. Enjoy, bitchboy, heh.

  @hthieblot It was a masterpiece. AOL, spawn of hell, bought out Netscape in 1998 & deliberately destroyed it trying to force people back to hell. Worst decision in internet history.

  @Noahpinion It is also pretty easy to imagine a world where a global, distributed network of open protocols that is mostly permissionsless did not happen in this way, and in which we only would have gotten a better AOL.

  Should we need to pay for email? In 2006, AOL and Yahoo announced priority delivery for senders willing to pay somewhere around a penny per message, with the promise that those messages would bypass the spam filter. The diagnosis behind it was correct. Email often breaks because sending is free, and when volume costs nothing, volume becomes the strategy (hello AI outbound!). Everything built afterward (filters, blocklists, sender reputation scores) is an attempt to patch a problem that is fundamentally about economics, and not about technology. Today, the same dynamic plays out on a much larger surface. AI agents can complete forms, take surveys, open accounts, and browse sites at a scale that would have been unimaginable for a spam operation twenty years ago, and most of that activity still registers in company dashboards as ordinary human demand. What I find most encouraging about Proof of Human is that this doesn't require the previous tradeoff. There's no toll, no puzzle, and nothing for a genuine visitor to notice or solve, because verification runs continuously in the background across the whole session rather than at a single checkpoint. When a decision does get made, there's a record behind it that a team can actually inspect, rather than an opaque score they're asked to trust. The email industry spent two decades learning that you can't tax your way to trust, and that authentication works better than obstruction. That lesson is worth carrying into whatever comes next.

  Robert Johnson explains the exit-timing test behind selling BET to Viacom. BET had gone public in 1991 as "the first African American company publicly traded on the New York Stock Exchange." Then Johnson and John Malone "bought the company back private in '98." The question became: "How do we continue to grow it and at the same time create an exit strategy for Liberty Media?" Then the market gave him a signal. "AOL merged with Time Warner." "That was sort of the highest valuation for media companies you'd ever see in a long time." When Sumner Redstone called, Johnson's first answer was not yes. "I don't think it's for sale." "Maybe we'd like you as a partner." "But I'm not ready to sell." He sold only after the control terms protected the asset. "If they wanted me to stay at the company for the five years I was going to sign the contract, it had to be independent." "I would only report to Sumner or Mel." When I look at a sale, this is the part I care about. The high valuation matters, but the better question is whether the buyer, timing, and control terms protect what made the asset valuable. - Robert Johnson on FoundationINTERVIEWS

  @Capt_Fishpaste Agreed. Why fret about stuff that may never happen? I start looking up players' stats and profiles when I see a photo of them standing outside the AOL holding up a #Sunderland scarf. #SAFC
