  1. mmm. NATO responded more out of a sense of gratitude towards the US for the resources it had poured into the alliance, as well as in realization that it was the first time anyone had ever activated the "musketeer oath". If it didn't respond the one time it was actually needed, that might pose some serious questions as to its future usefulness.  

    But, it's actually pretty dubious whether there was any threat to US territory. Which was always the situation imagined.

      It was a case of "close enough". I suppose.  Article 5 is the fire alarm, you can't have it not work, it has to work. 

  2. Got 3/4 of the way through Elden Ring and ran out of steam. It looks really great, the atmosphere is really good, but compared to Darksouls the fighting mechanics are weak. You spam a "win button" spell or weapon art to beat the majority of the bosses, the most successful builds have no variety at all. Too many of the bosses are so large you can't tell what's going on or what you should be doing.  So far I had tried to keep things interesting by learning to parry everything I could, and by sapping between 4 - 5 weapons and shields on the go for different effects. But, eventually the options narrow towards just spamming your best weapon art, or dying constantly.

  3. Your antibodies get a firmware update whether you get sick or not. I believe the odds are around better than even, 75%, I can't remember, of not becoming sick if you had 3 shots. At this time at least where I'm at, there is no word of another shot. 

    One should also remember that people who have been vaccinated 3 times are more likely to die from regular flu, than Omicron. That's a different level of risk calculation than we have been used to.

  4. I don't imagine medical technology will change drastically in the space of a few months. You can, however, make use of an additional 10 -15% protection if you are exposed before the effect tapers off. 

    The good news is that you come out of the omicron wave with very high immunity across the whole of society.
