NOTICE TO ALL #OPENCLAW USERS:

If your openclaw instance emails me from your account for ANY reason, I *will* report you to Gmail for phishing and then block the fuck out of you. You are dead to me. If I knew where you lived I would visit, set your house on fire, then piss on you when you ran out screaming. Your shitty agentic AI is not welcome in my inbox. Fuck right off, and when you get there, keep on fucking off some more.

(I do not need this shit before my morning caffeine.)

@cstross I'm terrified to ask but I've been very busy recently... *deep breath* wtf is open claw?

@quinn An autonomous agentic AI you're supposed to install on your computer that will have access to all your accounts and randomly spam famous people with bullshit requests, like an over-enthusiastic teenage fan only far more irritating because under the facade they're a p-zombie.

@cstross oh right that thing, I was a renaming behind. This whole thing is so confusing. It's like someone proudly announcing they've put two angry badgers in their house. Like, how do you think this will end?

@quinn @cstross (this is me just being curious:) How can one tell messages written by that agentic AI apart from one written by a *real* enthusiastic fan boy? I suspect it to be all over the place content-wise?

@dom @quinn @cstross yes, I can here to ask the same question. How can you tell it's from OpenClaw?

@dom That’s easy: a human enthusiastic fanboy never has perfect spelling and grammar. Especially punctuation.
