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.]

watch Thiel melting in the excruciating video clip

But then the budget version, compare the always dry looking Bryan (spends millions) to fellow longlivitity fanatic but moist looking budget Dave https://insights.avea-life.com/healthy-ageing/biohacking/dave-pascoe/

Is this longlivitity muppet creepy or wet?

every so often, gear techs involved with filming interviews can do silently heroic things

I don't know if this is a case of that, but given the skin shine from reflections, whoever set this up wasn't trying overly hard to make him look good. good on 'em

my personal theory is he refused makeup because it's an unnatural affectation that could have compromised his bioengineered skincare immortality routine
