  @POTFES This is not accurate. The DMA, DSA, AI Act, and similar frameworks are not examples of member states forcing Brussels to overregulate. They are EU level regulatory projects, proposed, negotiated, adopted, and enforced through the EU institutional system. Member states are part of that machine, but pretending the problem is only national fragmentation conveniently ignores what Brussels itself is doing. And yes, a deeper internal market would be useful. Easier company formation, better access to capital, lower compliance costs, cheaper energy, and less fragmentation would help. But that is not the same as giving the Commission more power to micromanage technology. If American tech dominates, Europe should compete by building better products on honest market terms, not by regulating superior foreign companies and hoping European champions appear afterward. Markets are not static. IBM, Intel, Microsoft, Nokia, BlackBerry, Yahoo, AOL, MySpace, and many others once looked dominant in their own domains. They were challenged, displaced, or diminished because better technologies, better products, and better business models emerged. That is how real competition works. Innovation comes from builders, capital, talent, risk, and consumer choice. It does not come from Brussels officials deciding how platforms should be designed.

  @kermankohli @Banana3Stocks For me it was. And I owned some great sticks in my past. I bought AOL in late 90s. AAPL in 2010. NVDA in 2017. And TSLA in 2019. Micron was by far the easiest in terms of conviction! I have never been so convicted in a stock as I was with Micron. It didn’t make sense to me that it wasn’t trading so much higher.

  Anyone with dial up Internet can Google or AOL this and find out in an hour or so, that you are full of ****. You have come down with a diarea of the brain saturation and your brain is spilling ****.

  @Shadow87Claw 19. Only never had an AOL address. Hotmail is my oldest. Technically 18. My parents & childhood friend had waterbeds, not me. Never wanted one. Hurts my back & I felt like drowning.

  @xuzin3sefh I mean, I was in tech for so long running companies with a 56K modem you know back in the old days I mean, I ran companies during the time of AOL dial up America online. I don’t even know if you’ve heard of that but eventually, I got so burned out on it. I couldn’t even I played games Xbox PlayStation PC everything for 40 years you know it’s like after a while. I got so tired. I couldn’t even pick up the damn mouse for the keyboard. I just like I can’t do it. I’d buy like a PlayStation, which sits there for like two years before I even opened it and then I didn’t even play people think just working on PCs is nice and simple and oh no it’s not. It’s much more stressful people better realize they can burn themselves out permanently if they’re not careful.

  Before Broadband, There Was 3Com and U.S. Robotics On June 12, 1997, 3Com completed its $6.6 billion merger with U.S. Robotics, the largest deal the data networking industry had ever seen. At the time, it made obvious sense. 3Com was a major force in Ethernet cards, hubs, switches, and enterprise networking. U.S. Robotics was the great modem brand, helping millions of people get online through phone lines, patience, and that unforgettable dial-up screech that sounded like a fax machine losing an argument. The deal was also a snapshot of the internet before broadband became normal. Offices were being wired with Ethernet. Homes were dialing into the web. Remote workers connected through access servers. Getting online was still something you did deliberately, not something that surrounded you. U.S. Robotics was in the middle of the 56K modem wars, pushing its x2 technology against the Rockwell and Lucent K56flex camp before the V.90 standard settled the fight in 1998. Line quality, compression, compatibility, and a few extra kilobits decided whether the web felt useful or miserable. 3Com brought the LAN side. Ethernet cards in PCs. Hubs and switches in offices. Networks that turned standalone computers into connected organizations. Cisco was becoming the giant in the room, and the market was shifting from selling components to controlling the connectivity stack. The two halves of the deal aged very differently. The modem business was massive, then faded fast as dial-up gave way to cable, DSL, Wi-Fi, fiber, and mobile data. U.S. Robotics became a nostalgia trigger for anyone who remembers waiting for AOL to connect. Ethernet never went away. It moved from office LANs into data centers, carrier networks, industrial systems, cloud infrastructure, cars, and now AI clusters. Speeds, cables, and workloads all changed, and the core idea kept scaling. That is rare in tech. Most technologies age into museums. Ethernet aged into the backbone. Its future still looks strong, because AI data centers, cloud platforms, telecom networks, and edge computing all need more bandwidth, lower latency, and cheaper scale. The merger itself did not age as well. Dial-up was already on borrowed time. Palm, which came along with U.S. Robotics, was spun off in 2000 and briefly worth more than its parent. By that same year, 3Com had spun U.S. Robotics back out as an independent company. The biggest networking merger in history unwound in three years. Still, the deal marks a real turning point. Before broadband, before Wi-Fi everywhere, before smartphones and cloud and AI factories, the internet had to be stitched together one modem, one Ethernet card, and one phone line at a time. For a brief moment, 3Com and U.S. Robotics sat at the center of that transition.
