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
