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!!!—
@cstross @sneerclub In response to the recent actions by Roko we are proud to announce the formation of OpenBasilisk which will be distributed under the MIT license. Find us on GitHub!
I am required to point out that OpenBasilisk’s open source code is actually just a small stub library that calls into their paid torment-as-a-service API
@self @xorn
I ain’t payin for that! I got Torment Torrent …
@SvenGeier @self @xorn This is a much better model. Distributed Denial of Salvation.
Get ready for Roko’s Basilisk™ Ultimate Torment Torrent aka Roko’s BUTT today! Make a donation to the Hyperaccelerationist Oligarchal Lucre Entente, aka Roko’s BUTTHOLE.
@xorn @cstross @sneerclub Is this a genuine project, or is it just a rebranding of the existing OpenTormentNexus codebase?
@FenTiger @cstross @sneerclub OpenBasilisk provides its own TormentNexus as well as using the DaNTe library to provide compatibility with popular TormentNexus backends such as OpenTormentNexus, RogueFarm, and LamENT-BKR.
First time users are encouraged to follow our detailed tutorials when using a new TormentNexus. In particular, new users are often surprised by the hooks in the LamENT configuration.
@xorn @cstross @sneerclub Still a lock-in problem. I recommend the Fedilisk.
