*POOF* He’s now your manager for the next 40 years at a restaurant where you work for $1.79/hour plus tips.

Oh, I wasn’t meaning to suggest you were wrong. I’ve actually feel that Falken’s statement there makes perfect sense. Falken only goes wrong when he refuses to act to stop WW III on the assumption that since it’s going to happen eventually, why not now?

You sound a lot like Dr. Falken from Wargames.

I’ve planned ahead. We’re just three miles from a primary target. A millisecond of brilliant light and we’re vaporized. Much more fortunate than millions who wander sightless through the smoldering aftermath.

It’s a great way to keep the UFO nuts contained. Let them scurry around the surrounding area as much as they want. Occasionally arrest one who gets too insistent and the others will take that as confirmation that something big is hidden there.

Some barely secret aircraft, a whole lot of accounting and clerical staff, and a tremendous amount of security to make it seem like there are major secrets being protected there. That is what I would put at the world’s most well known secret base, anyway.

You’re just trying to stir shit up for no reason.

They are stirring shit up to, I assume, advocate for change.

Thank you. I was unaware that anyone was working on a new vaccine.

It’s a whole different and horrific issue for cats. It’s also killed at least two whose owners them raw milk. It’s apparently about 67% lethal for cats.

The current flu shot is almost certainly not effective against the current HPAI A(H5N1) strain that is in the news and making life hard for dairy and poultry farms. There likely won’t be a vaccine developed for it unless it mutates to become human-to-human transmissible. Currently, people can only contract it from exposure to sick animals or their environment. As long as you avoid contact with sick birds or cattle (or their bodily fluids or feces) you should be safe from contracting it… unless it mutates.

Depends what you like. I’ve been enjoying Space Pirate Trainer and Gun Club VR. Single player FPS types where you shoot down waves of attackers. Hands down favorite, though, is Half-Life: Alyx. Great story, very immersive, and the use of VR is top notch.
