Someone I was following on TikTok, whose takes on tech industry bullshit and specifically AI hype I respected, made a video that Roko’s basilisk is a serious concern. My apologies to those who have been in this same situation when I was less sympathetic.

          the Sneerclub, Whatever That Is:

          sip or quaff as desired, while rereading that illustrious comment and staring in wonder that it was actually posted

            I’d advise that the SneerClub is actually a negroni with extra-proof (70-90% alcohol) rum replacing the Campari, which is instead drizzled from the bottom of a nearly empty bottle over the top. And it’s taken like a shot, beginning when you log on and continuing at your own pace until either you pass out or the internet does.

              that’s the OG Sneerclub, this is the variant Whatever That Is - you find it in the kinds of holiday resorts that you learn about from in-flight magazines on cattle class LON-NYC runs
