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.]

It was the guy angry about videogames. Just an ancient reference nothing special sadly. Just a random guy most people thought was wrong. Turns out GTA isnt a cop killing training simulator.

Of course the newest gta release is turning into a waiting for godot situation. (Apparently it was delayed again, not my game series, only liked the first two)

OH that Jack Thompson. Yeah I remember now. Man, on one hand, his actions were at best misguided and at worst totally insane. On the other hand, IMO we wouldn’t know about him if video game people were by any measure calm or reasonable.
