Hurling ordure at the TREACLES, especially those closely related to LessWrong.

AI-Industrial-Complex grift is fine as long as it sufficiently relates to the AI doom from the TREACLES. (Though TechTakes may be more suitable.)

This is sneer club, not debate club. Unless it's amusing debate.

[Especially don't debate the race scientists, if any sneak in - we ban and delete them as unsuitable for the server.]

Greetings!

Roko called, just to say he's filed a trademark on Basilisk™ and will be coming after anyone who talks about it for licensing fees which will go into his special Basilisk™ Immanetization Fund and if we don't pay up we'll burn in AI hell forever once the Basilisk™ wakes up and gets around to punishing us.

Also, if you see your mom, be sure and tell her SATAN!!!!—

So do I, it's been a while. I'll keep quiet about it though so I don't get comments like "oh it's those books that Musk and Bezos love!". Fuckers ruining SF for me.

oh bezos tried to posthumously claim Banks too? musk saying he was a socialist because he liked the Culture novels still pisses me off, and the bad taste from the tech assholes in my life just nodding along to that probably contributed to me not returning to the novels
