AOL does not like surly sending it email

[bob in houston 184]

If you're trying to register or update your password and you have an AOL account it's time to get a new email account as they are blocking us.

[woohorn 1131]

I was hoping YOU would block people with aol emails from registering, but I guess I'll have to show Grandma how to use Hotmail now.

[Viper 12096]

armybrat made it over. how many more aol users do we need?

[Guest Lobo]

csb/ was sitting in a committee meeting once and this millennial was collecting our email addresses to send out a schedule of upcoming meetings for our non-profit.  She gets to Marc.  He says xxxxxxxxxx@aol.com      She condescendingly says, "who still has an aol.com address?"  He very politely replies, "I do, I co-founded the company."  /csb

Well shit, at least my CompuServe email will still work

[phdhorn 6224]

What's the dialup baud required?  I'm on 440 and it's not too bad, a little slow though when Tom Herman fucks up a game.

So I guess SHOOTER12@excite.com isn't good anymore?

[Guest Lobo]

excite.com emails still work.  It's Lycos that shut down the email, IIRC.  Those were the days.  Still remember using those sites and altavista in PCL in the mid 90's to try and shortcut having to haul my ass upstairs to the stacks to do real research.  

[Spankytoes 1739]

BlueCoat is now blocking you too...

That's amazing.  I remember the first time MrsShooter saw "Excite.com" she immediately thought I was cruising for pron.  Nope, not computer literate...thinks puters and intertrons are the debil.

Little did she know you were surfing HotBot for cylon porn

[Liquor and Poker 3659]

[bernorange 8359]

That's what happens when you try to backtrace through a firewall.

I'm still rocking a Roadrunner mousepad I inherited stole from someone back in 2002.

Is Radio Shack still a thing these days?

[markstanco 12570]

Not around me, and sad.

I used to love going there as a kid and buying a circuit board and making a project.

The same reason CVS gives me a six foot receipt for just toothpaste.

[Sbbruin 21825]

And I'll give up my hotmail email when you pry it from my cold, dead hands.

[Hanrahan 1306]

Had a hotmail address since 1997.

[Underdog 28543]

I use whatever the public library uses.

There is one in my small town True Value. Just bought a set of tiny screwdrivers there a few days ago.

I've got hotmail and yahoo email accounts. Haven't checked either one in 5 or 6 years.

Did you really just ask yourself a question? I am guessing greg was correct.

What's that address? I'd like to help him reset his passwords.

Anybody seen that dancing baby? Prolly not, need a Pentium to make it work. Slackers.

[SDG 3319]

Did Surly ever fix its hate of the @texas.edu accounts?  When I registered I couldn’t use that address.

On the other side, what about when the gadgets we buy start to condemn what we watch online/ television..?
