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!!!!—

There was a Consider Phlebas TV series in planning at Amazon, which was canned, thankfully.

thank fuck. my faith in Amazon making anything but an embarrassing pseudo-adaptation was pretty much zero

Banks would have pissed all over these people (or rather written a non-M novel skewering them).

exactly, that’s why these assholes waited til he was dead to try and appropriate his work

Do NOT read any HN discussions of SF you like if you value your faith in humanity

the only value in sf discussions on the orange site is as material to sneer at on TechTakes
