It's the dunk tank.
This is where you come to post big-brained hot takes by chuds, libs, or even fellow leftists, and tear them to itty-bitty pieces with precision dunkstrikes.
Rule 1: All posts must include links to the subject matter, and no identifying information should be redacted.
Rule 2: If your source is a reactionary website, please use archive.is instead of linking directly.
Rule 3: No sectarianism.
Rule 4: TERF/SWERFs Not Welcome
Rule 5: No ableism of any kind (that includes stuff like libt*rd)
Rule 6: Do not post fellow hexbears.
Rule 7: Do not individually target other instances' admins or moderators.
Rule 8: The subject of a post cannot be low hanging fruit, that is comments/posts made by a private person that have low amount of upvotes/likes/views. Comments/Posts made on other instances that are accessible from hexbear are an exception to this. Posts that do not meet this requirement can be posted to !shitreactionariessay@lemmygrad.ml
Rule 9: if you post ironic rage bait im going to make a personal visit to your house to make sure you never make this mistake again

It's a dumbass idea because wasting resources eternally torturing millions of people is stupid and an AI won't be a superintelligence capable of taking power over humans if it's that fucking stupid.
Pascal's Wager only works because god is an omnipotent superpower with unlimited resources that's simply not the case for AI.
Even if we leave aside the likelihood of a future AI doing the plot of I Have No Mouth And I Must Scream, roko's basilisk is like a pascal's wager with a god that goes "understandable have a nice day" if you're an actual atheist and only punishes you if you're an insufficiently evangelical christian.
No it simulates you and the simulations are sentient and you should care about them. Either that or you don't know whether you're a simulation so you should act like you are, I don't exactly remember.
Sure but have you considered
