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.]

Uh... internal passports anyone?
Rest of post is ok.
@gerikson @Lessthan3 A russian team is visiting France in the 70s. The negotiations are going well, but slow and the weekend comes up. The french offer to take them down to Nice to see the sea.
- ok but who will arrange the internal passports?
- the what?
- and we need fuel allowance tickets, and its late friday...
- what now?
- and a road permit?
- what are you talking about? We get into the car, drive down, enjoy the beach, came back!
The russians murmuring each other: "Such anarchy!"

Internal passports?
Like the one my wife grew up with in Russia? Where you have to register with the police on arrival in town.
(I did, when I arrived for a vacation (not work), and the police had literally *never* had that happen before, so they noted it in the station log book and told me to go away. Via my translator gf-to-become-wife.)
