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.]

This is hilarious. For ages every time Urbit has appeared in tech aggregators the original connection with Yarvin has been raised, and the proponents have snippily replied he's not longer involved. No idea what passive-aggressive bullshit they'll invent next time now that he's back in charge, baby!

I'll say it again urbit is the most unintentionally funny software ever created

Didn’t the maintainers vote to rewrite all the documentation in Lojban once or something?

god I hope this is true

As David says, that was a fork, under this GH org. Source: I ran one of the stars, claimed here. However, it turns out that there's only maybe two dozen people interested in a far-left Lojbanic fork of Urbit, and the network is moribund.

CC @sc_griffith@awful.systems; your dreams are fulfilled, sort of.
