What Kamala Harris Believes

The Vice President’s political record reveals the views of a California progressive.

Wall Street Journal

Democrats are rapidly unifying behind Kamala Harris as their party nominee, yet the Vice President remains relatively unknown to most Americans. That means it’s important to look at her record to see what she believes.

As VP she’s closely identified with the Biden agenda, for better or worse, and she embraced that record in remarks on Monday. She said President Biden’s first term has “surpassed the legacy” of most Presidents who have served two.

So mark her down as endorsing the spending blowouts that caused inflation, the Green New Deal, entitlement expansions and student loan forgiveness. Until she says otherwise, we should also assume she’s in favor of Mr. Biden’s $5 trillion tax increase in 2025.

The Vice President’s four years as a Senator from California are another window on her worldview. She sponsored a bill to create a $6,000 guaranteed income for families making up to $100,000. Another Harris proposal: A refundable tax credit that would effectively cap rents and utility payments at 30% of income. Liberal economists panned the subsidy because it would drive up rents.

She co-sponsored legislation with Bernie Sanders that would pay tuition at four-year public colleges for students from families making up to $125,000. This is more honest than the Administration’s back-end student loan cancellation. But it would cost $700 billion over a decade and encourage colleges to increase tuition.

Another Bernie mind-meld: Single-payer healthcare. Ms. Harris co-sponsored his Medicare for All legislation paid for by higher income taxes. She tweaked Bernie’s plan when running for President in 2019 by extending the phase-in to 10 years from four and exempting households making less than $100,000 from the “income-based premium.” But it would still put government in charge of all American healthcare over time.

As a San Francisco Democrat, Ms. Harris shares the state’s hostility to fossil fuels. She used her power as California Attorney General to launch an investigation into Exxon Mobil over its carbon emissions. In 2019 she endorsed a nationwide ban on oil and gas fracking, which would cost tens of thousands of jobs and cause power outages like those that often occur in her home state. Expect this to be a GOP talking point in Pennsylvania.

One question to ask is whether the Vice President wants to restructure the Supreme Court. She said in 2019 she was “open” to adding more Justices, but that idea doesn’t poll well. Does she agree with Mr. Biden’s mooted plan to endorse “reforms” to the High Court that would make the Justices subject to Congressional supervision?

Mr. Biden famously put Ms. Harris in charge of border policy, and we know how that has turned out. Rather than push for border policy changes, her first instinct was to blame the rush of migrants on “root causes” in developing countries, including corruption, violence, poverty and “lack of climate adaptation and climate resilience.”

Climate change makes the U.S. border a sieve? Apparently so. “In Honduras, in the wake of hurricanes, we must deliver food, shelter, water and sanitation to the people,” Ms. Harris declared. “And in Guatemala, as farmers endure continuous droughts, we must work with them to plant drought-resistant crops.” These “root causes” take decades to address, and in the meantime she had nothing to say about actual border security.

Ms. Harris’s foreign policy views aren’t well known, or perhaps even well formed, apart from promoting Mr. Biden’s policies. While she has backed the Administration’s military assistance to Ukraine, she has equivocated about support for Israel. In March she chastised Israel for not doing enough to ease a “humanitarian catastrophe.” Leaks to the press say officials at the National Security Council toned down her speech’s criticism of Israel.

She lambasted the Trump Administration for killing Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps Gen. Qassem Soleimani, claiming it could lead to bigger war in the Mideast. The killing chastened Iran’s rulers instead, at least until the Biden Administration began to ease sanctions and tried to repeat the 2015 nuclear deal.

It will be especially important for the press to ask Ms. Harris about her national security views. If her handlers control her as much as White House advisers have Mr. Biden, we’ll know they’re afraid that the Vice President might not be able to handle the scrutiny.

A fair conclusion from all of this is that Ms. Harris is a standard California progressive on most issues, often to the left of Mr. Biden. Perhaps as she reintroduces herself to the public in the coming weeks, she will modify some of those views. She would be wise to do so if she wants to win.

Given the rush by Democrats to anoint Ms. Harris as their nominee, the press has a particular obligation to tell the public about who she is and what she really thinks. Does she believe California is a model for the country?

When Microsoft named its new Windows feature Recall, the company intended the word to refer to a kind of perfect, AI-enabled memory for your device. Today, the other, unintended definition of “recall”—a company's admission that a product is too dangerous or defective to be left on the market in its current form—seems more appropriate.

On Friday, Microsoft announced that it would be making multiple dramatic changes to its rollout of its Recall feature, making it an opt-in feature in the Copilot+ compatible versions of Windows where it had previously been turned on by default, and introducing new security measures designed to better keep data encrypted and require authentication to access Recall's stored data.

“We are updating the set-up experience of Copilot+ PCs to give people a clearer choice to opt-in to saving snapshots using Recall,” reads a blog post from Pavan Davuluri, Microsoft's corporate vice president for Windows and devices. “If you don’t proactively choose to turn it on, it will be off by default.”

The changes come amid a mounting barrage of criticism from the security and privacy community, which has described Recall—which silently stores a screenshot of the user's activity every five seconds as fodder for AI analysis—as a gift to hackers: essentially unrequested, preinstalled spyware built into new Windows computers.

In the preview versions of Recall, that screenshot data, complete with the user's every bank login, password, and porn site visit would have been indefinitely collected on the user's machine by default. And though that highly sensitive data is stored locally on the user's machine and not uploaded to the cloud, cybersecurity experts have warned that it all remains accessible to any hacker who so much as gains a temporary foothold on a user's Recall-enabled device, giving them a long-term panopticon view of the victim's digital life.

"It makes your security very fragile,” as Dave Aitel, a former NSA hacker and founder of security firm Immunity, described it—more charitably than some others—to WIRED earlier this week. “Anyone who penetrates your computer for even a second can get your whole history. Which is not something people want.”

In addition to making Recall an opt-in feature, Microsoft’s Davuluri also writes that the company will make changes to better safeguard the data Recall collects and more closely police who can turn it on, requiring that users prove their identity via its Microsoft Hello authentication function any time they either enable Recall or access its data, which can require a PIN or biometric check of the user’s face or thumbprint. Davuluri says Recall’s data will remain encrypted in storage until the user authenticates.

All of that is a “great improvement,” says Jake Williams, another former NSA hacker who now serves as VP of R&D at the cybersecurity consultancy Hunter Strategy, where he says he's been asked by some of the firm's clients to test Recall's security before they add Microsoft devices that use it to their networks. But Williams still sees serious risks in Recall, even in its latest form.

Many users will turn on Recall, he points out, partly due to Microsoft’s high-profile marketing of the feature. And when they do, they’ll still face plenty of unresolved privacy problems, from domestic abusers that often demand partners give up their PINs to subpoenas or lawsuits that compel them to turn over their historical data. “Satya Nadella has been out there talking about how this is a game changer and the solution to all problems,” Williams says, referring to Microsoft's CEO. “If customers turn it on, there’s still a huge threat of legal discovery. I can’t imagine a corporate legal team that’s ready to accept the risk of all of a user’s actions being turned over in discovery.”

For Microsoft, the Recall rollback comes in the midst of an embarrassing string of cybersecurity incidents and breaches—including a leak of terabytes of its customers' data and a shocking penetration of government email accounts enabled by a cascading series of Microsoft security slipups—that have grown so problematic as to become a sticking point given its uniquely close relationship with the US government.

Those scandals have escalated to the degree that Microsoft's Nadella issued a memo just last month declaring that Microsoft would make security its first priority in any business decision. “If you’re faced with the trade-off between security and another priority, your answer is clear: Do security,” Nadella's memo read (emphasis his). “In some cases, this will mean prioritizing security above other things we do, such as releasing new features or providing ongoing support for legacy systems.”

By all appearances, Microsoft's rollout of Recall—even after today's announcement—displays the opposite approach, and one that seems more in line with business as usual in Redmond: Announce a feature, get pummeled for its glaring security failures, then belatedly scramble to control the damage.

Why do so many Blue states have Red governors and so many Red states have Blue governors?

Short answer: Because when you are under attack constantly irl, you don't take your rights for granted.

The Governor of Kentucky (and potential VP pick ((crossed fingers)) ) Beshear is STAUNCHLY pro-trans, pro-choice, and pro-union.

Beshear is ALSO one of the most popular governors in the COUNTRY

Keep in mind that Red states suffer from gerrymandering and voter suppression every year. And they have BLUE, PRO-TRANS governors.

If you are in a Blue state with a Red governor. It's because people aren't voting.

As a former Tennessean, If you are able to vote and don't, I'm going to assume you are 1, lazy, and 2, ungrateful. People who fought for your rights were taking direct action and you can't even GO OUTSIDE AND CHECK A BOX??? Shameful.

1920, This sign was designed to be placed in the window of a home so that all who passed would know that the woman within had exercised her right under the 19th amendment and registered to vote. It also served as a reminder to other women to do the same. -Smithsonian

Oklahoma Federation of Colored Women's Clubs, American, founded 1910, National Association of Colored Women's Clubs, American, founded 1896 - Smithsonian, National Museum of African American History and Culture

And you can't even check a box.

Don't complain if you choose not to vote. If you ARE voting (thank you), talk to your friends and relatives about it. Talk to them about how Red states & Southern states are coming up with revolutionary policy and are changing people's lives for the better BECAUSE PEOPLE VOTED.

There are Native Americans fighting for citizenship who can't vote.

100 years ago, U.S. citizenship for Native Americans came without voting rights in swing states

When you have the right to vote (and the time & money because voting day isn't a holiday + not everyone is old enough), but choose not to, you are spiting in their faces.

Register to vote, be the change you want to see this year. It takes about two minutes.

If you are under 18, Pledge to vote

Newspaper Helsingin Sanomat covered the discussion on Finland at the US vice presidential debate on Tuesday night between Republican candidate JD Vance and Democrat Tim Walz.

On the subject of school shootings, Walz brought up his experience visiting Finnish schools.

"I've spent time in Finland and seen some Finnish schools. They don't have this [school shootings] happen, even though they have a high gun ownership rate in the country," Walz said on the debate stage.

Walz said he and presidential candidate Kamala Harris were both gun owners and stressed that it was the responsibility of policy makers to ensure the safety of children.

He also spoke about how he was affected by meeting the families of the victims of the 2012 Sandy Hook Elementary School shooting in Connecticut. Walz emphasised that change can be made without taking away Americans' guns.

Vance, however, advocated for improving school safety by reinforcing doors, windows and other security features. He also said schools should be given more resources.

"I appreciate what Tim [Walz] said about Finland, because I do think it illustrates some of the weird differences between our own country's gun violence problem and Finland. First of all, we have way higher rates of mental health substance abuse, we have way higher rates of depression, we have way higher rates of anxiety. We unfortunately have a mental health crisis in this country," Vance responded.

HS also noted that Walz is the current governor of Minnesota, a state with a large population of Finnish ancestry, and that a photograph of him wearing a Finland beanie previously circulated online.

Despite the rhetoric praising the Nordic country, Finland suffered its first school shooting in over a decade earlier this year.

Gold going up

Rural-focused newspaper Maaseudun Tulevaisuus highlighted that the global price of gold has surged to new highs. Current prices are reaching near 80 euros per gram, compared to under 10 euros in 2000.

While this has not yet triggered a gold rush in Lapland, there has been notable interest from foreign prospectors.

Mechanical gold mining has ceased in areas like Lemmenjoki National Park, cutting production to a third of previous levels. However, Europe's largest gold mine in Kittilä produced seven tonnes of gold last year.

Kai J. Rantanen, head of the Lapland Association of Gold Miners (Lapin Kullankaivajain Liitto), said that social media and foreign television reality series about gold miners created a movement even before the price had risen.

"Many have since discovered a reality of gold mining that may not suit their own psyche and physique. It requires a strong back," Rantanen said.

Despite strict environmental regulations, Lapland continues to attract gold prospectors, including from countries like the Netherlands, Sweden and Germany.

However, only about 20 of the region's 2,000 prospectors earn a significant portion of their livelihood from gold.

Learning Finnish on the job

The story of Saudi Arabian Mahir Ashraf Khan learning Finnish made it into Tampere daily Aamulehti.

Khan moved to Finland about two years ago, and while the words in his Finnish sentences are at times out of order, his fast and confident speech is easy to listen to, according to the paper.

Over the past couple of years, Khan's Finnish language skills have improved from non-existent to conversational. Khan learned the basics of Finnish in a beginners' course at Tampere University as soon as he arrived in Finland.

However, he conceded that his goal of effortless conversation is still a long way off.

"It would be great to be able to think in Finnish as well. Now I might be able to, if I concentrate," Khan said.

Having grown up in Saudi Arabia, Khan knew he wanted to study abroad as soon as he finished high school.

Out of several options, AL wrote that he chose Finland for a somewhat surprising reason — in Finland there are bidet showers even in public toilets. That's important for someone from the Middle East, laughed Khan, who moved to the Tampere district of Hervanta in autumn 2022.

Re: Greg's job titles/promotions

I might be mistaken on all this as the show DOES NOT make it clear but this is how I see it.

Greg stated being Tom's assistant as in the one that makes him coffee, keeps appointments, takes calls, etc (basically being a slave to Tom's somewhat personal day to day needs)

At some point he got a promotion to Executive Assistant (probably when they moved to ATN) as that is a separate job title than just assistant since they usually take care or personal as well as business needs, as in he can make him coffee and keep appointment but also manage low level/short projects (like when Greg finds they can digitize ATN) and other things that do not require the Executive direct input cause they are already in motion (they are a slave but also their number 2 that helps them execute their vision)

Theen at another point he got promoted to Tom's Chief of Staff, where he got the big office with the windows and later demoted (physically but not title wise) to the mailroom office (which was great cause they had *privacy* with an actual door!). Here he would supposedly be actually involved in the business, as is not only execute Tom's vision of thing, but actually have input, that is still ultimately Tom's responsability if he fucks up but input nonetheless.

By S4 it seems he either no longer is COS and kinda became a low level executive or is still COS but not under Tom and maybe of an entire department? Because in 4x6 he is pushing the editing guy as if that was his role (maybe something in Digital like proposed to Logan in 1x8) and then in 4x8 is when Tom tells him I want you gregging for me, so he is probably not Tom's any type of assistant anymore and actually handles some business independently but parallel/under Tom.

This is clearly all Tom's doing and probably the fact Greg gets shit down in the most convoluted way possible because to go from assistant to low level executive it would take him around 8 years and the proper qualifications, which presumably he does not have.

And post finale, I can totally see Greg being COO to Tom's CEO, maybe not right at the beginning to save face but definitely like VP of Strategy and Operations or some shit that in less than a year get him right next to Tom once again.

Either way they are gonna conquer or watch Rome burn to the ground together!

huh! okay! yeah i seen a few explanations, and YEAH lol it’s pretty clear there’s a lot of favouritism there from tom, as well as seduction to try to keep him around eg. after the attempted blackmail.

and OUGH not actually under tom any more s4 that makes me!!! i mean i already knew he outranked him but i didn’t think on such a high level and being in like. a different department. but he’s there with tom 😭 ugh. it would track though bc the entirety of s4 is greg choosing tom/to bat for tom so like. wahg!!! and it also helps explain tom’s desperation to secure status and then later ceo spot more, like generally he would, but we all know he’d love to have greg back with him again in the same department, even though greg is clearly glued to his side regardless of that.

yep! i can see that too! high rank position next to tom, that’s exactly what is gonna happen lol let’s be real. and greg will welcome it happily.

Flowers and Ash, Chapter 11

Book 1, Calendula Chronicles series.

Story synopsis: When the eldest daughter of Edward Ashford accompanies her father and brother on a last-minute trip in 1968 to secure their legacy, an act of spite turns into a boon for the family. When tragedy and scandal strike, the survivors will have to be clever if they are to live long enough to pick up the pieces of their lives. Pre-slash/Gen.

Chapter synopsis: A trap is sprung.

CW for implied death of family member, isolation, dissociation, and violence

Everett’s nerves had seen better days.

She’d made her call to the head office from the reception phone - no one really manned the desk, and anyone trying to call in knew which extensions to use. This was really one of the few blind spots in the facility’s state-of-the-art surveillance system - the rest was for the labs, and for the grounds themselves. The lobby and the upstairs area were living quarters. This was a stressful enough place to work without overseeing every moment of their lives outside of the lab, and anyone approaching the facility would be documented well enough.

This place creeped her out. She’d only played valet a few times, and every time, it made her skin crawl. She couldn’t place the reason, exactly. Every time she went in, there was a terrible sense of dread that she wouldn’t be allowed to leave again.

For the hundredth time, she wondered if asking for a transfer would do her any good. Something in the pit of her stomach warned against pulling any attention from the higher-ups.

Blame horror movies. Blame ghost stories. Blame a million culturally-ingrained little reasons, but every instinct she had screamed at her to leave.

Ms. Ashford had not been what she had expected. Her niece, from all reports, was as tightly-wound as they came (for a ten-year-old genius), but the aunt had swept in three years prior, zeroed in on the dictator terrorizing the training facility, and just....fixed it. No disappearances, or horrid rumours, just, *fixed the problem* like a normal VP. The new lab out here was creepy, yes, but it *worked.* The scientists were all healthy and happy. The improvements showed on every level.

She’d been a little shaken the morning after that meeting, when the group of them had painted the town red the previous night in celebration. In particular, when she’d awoken in the other woman’s bed. Not that her tastes never ran in that direction, but, she was a Midwestern girl at heart. Exploring that side of herself was risky for a woman of any ambition in her line of work. Marigold had simply sat up, and arched in a lazy stretch. She’d smiled brightly, and glanced out the window. “What a lovely week this is turning out to be.”

It had never really occurred to her to find dissonance between Ashford’s seniority in the company, and how youthful she had looked in that moment, stripped of the trappings of a glamorous lifestyle she had draped about herself. Later, when she thought back on it, she would think only of the lovely warm feeling the sight of that smile had given her.

Neither of them spoke of it, afterwards. No one brought it up at work, or made the sort of leering insinuations she had come to expect from the local executive pool. But no one had said a word, and she’d gone about her life as normal.

That lovely feeling was gone now, and a sense of dread had been building in the pit of her stomach. She plucked the card from her breast pocket, looking around. The feeling kept building.

She dialed the number. A calm dissociation settled over Everrett’s mind as it began to ring.

On the third ring, and clipped British man’s voice came over the line. “Yes.”

“Vermillion effervescent hedgehogs?” She read dreamily from the card. What an odd thing to put there. It was almost like a code phrase in a spy movie. How funny! She stumbled over the thought, lost in the fog.

A long pause. “How bad?”

The words bubbled up from somewhere deep inside her. “Ghouls. They made...they know. Get out now.” Something was odd about her intonation, the cadence of her own voice. Everett couldn’t dredge up the ability to care, in that moment. This was a dream, wasn’t it? Of course it was.

The man on the other end inhaled sharply. “I understand,” he said. Then, with a touch of what sounded like grief, he said “I’m sorry,” and hung up the phone.

Everrett replaced the receiver slowly. A brief moment passed, and she shook her head, looking around. I must have been woolgathering, she thought.

The office had told her to return to the office once their business was completed. This was a good time to go. She had dropped the visiting executive off at the laboratory, with their many spare rooms and expansive grounds. No need to linger in this place any longer than strictly required.

Keys in hand, Kate Everett left the mansion, climbed into her car, and drove back to town.

“Goodbye, creepy mansion. Someone else can take this shift next time,” she muttered to herself. Better yet, there seemed to be a heliport being completed near to the lot.

She only looked back once.

---

Marigold sat very still in the plush conference room chair, head bowed and eyes closed, with hands folded primly in her lap. She’d asked for a glass of water, citing a headache. An assistant had been sent to get one from down the hall, and the two researchers watched her like a hawk, as she appeared to be collecting herself. It had bought ninety seconds at most, but it was enough. Had to be enough.

Would never be enough.

The television at the head of the table continued to show a gruesome scene. A pair of rats, one infected with the ‘T-Virus’, the other healthy were being shown in a divided cage. A series of edited cuts showed the progression of the infection over several hours, with the healthy rat moving as far back as possible from its neighbour, who was in serious, almost mutagenic decline.

After several hours, the video, narrated by Doctor Birkin, showed the infected mouse shuddering its last breath before it collapsed.

At a posted twenty minutes later, the infected rat moaned, and climbed back to its feet. Its eyes locked on its neighbour, and it lurched forward, eyes never leaving it. She had never heard a rat scream before, as far as she knew.

Marigold watched, hardening into the certainty that she wouldn’t be allowed to walk out of this place again. Little fool. What else did you expect, walking into this viper's nest? But nothing had prepared her for the true horror of it.

This was the point where she had called for a glass of water. Head down, she could still hear the tinny moans through the television, hear the increasing agitation of the other mouse. That sheer horror drove her to push harder. This was a difficult trick to pull off at the best of times, but it seemed that the burst of adrenaline in her system helped to push the message through.

A soft clink told her they had returned. Marigold opened her eyes to look dully at the glass of water. A sharp certainty came to her that there was surely more than water in that glass. She left it where it was.

On the screen, the divider had been removed, and the infected mouse had set upon the other, cutting off its screams with teeth, and blood. Moments later, they both began to wander aimlessly around the cage again, ears tracking for...something.

She looked across the table at the two researchers. A pair of security guards had stationed themselves outside the door, following the two inside.

They wore gas masks. They were also armed. Not heavily, but nonetheless.

“So,” She said, trying for a conversational tone. Her voice wavered only slightly. “You have Sonnetroppe, and made ghouls. Should I be looking for a lightning rod outside, or was it left behind with Marcus?” She should be keeping the acid out of her voice. That would be the smart thing. 

Birkin’s face contorted with contempt. “This is a breakthrough. Of course, it’s not the end goal, but all Marcus could make living matter do with Prototype was die.” He actually seemed offended at the thought of sharing credit.

Because...”Your classmates?” She asked, almost gentle. Birkin stared back at her in defiance, while Wesker’s mouth hardened into a thin line. This, what was before her, was monstrous, but monsters were made. That stupid, horrid little man.

And Spencer had orchestrated all of it. Or, had considered them acceptable collateral. A sharp spike of rage hit her. Long practice kept her stillness intact, though it was a near thing.

The video continued, with the voiceover detailing cellular activity and what the next stage of the work would bring. The tiny moans continued.

A wave of exhaustion rolled over Marigold, on the heels of her anger. She’d pushed harder than she meant to, and done it through her suppressants. The emotional toll would always cost more than just her peace of mind, on top of that. Any of those things individually tended to do a number on her.

The telephone at the conference table began to ring. “Ah,” Wesker said, reaching to turn off the video - finally, she had been on the edge of sending the glass into it like a guided missile - and smiled, like all was well in the world. “Speaking of which, there was one guest who we’ve requested to be conferenced in. He picked up the receiver, hit a button to put the call on speaker, and replaced it within the cradle.

The voice seemed mildly agitated, on the other end. “Doctor Wesker? You told me to call you right away if something happened.”

“I did.” He kept his eyes trained on Marigold, as if waiting for something to happen.

“Well, he’s on the floor, sir.” A sobbing sound could be heard in the background. Something raw and wounded was bound up in that sound. “He started screaming out of the blue a moment ago. Now he’s on the floor.” The voice sounded more intrigued than worried. “Are you testing something? Head office won’t be happy to hear that Marcus is out of commission again, even with the demotion.”

“No,” Wesker replied, meeting Marigold’s eye with a smile that was growing glacial. “A pre-existing condition, I believe. Thank you for confirming something. That will be all.” He ended to call before the other man could reply.

She looked back. “Oh dear.” she said. “Do you think I ought to send a card?”

“He likely knows you’re in town by now,” Birkin, the skeptic, said slowly, shooting an incredulous look at Wesker.

That sick feeling was returning, compounded by the headache. What had been an affectation earlier was now very much real.

“How long?” she asked. It could have meant so many things. Birkin supplied an answer, slow and with a touch of mounting horror. “No one goes from fully functional to bedridden in the course of a phone call.”

“Yes, I’m sure he was the very picture of stability while you were under his employ,” she replied coolly. “He was a vicious idiot when I met him, and not much has changed since then, it seems.”

“Hardly at all, I imagine.” Wesker almost seemed apologetic. “Spencer’s rather perplexed that you could hide something like this for so long - he seems to feel there was an exposure early in the project - but I doubt he looked too closely, considering how much your contribution brought to the company. Anyone who truly did would pick up the pattern. He seemed genuinely upset at the thought, but I doubt he was truly surprised.” He looked her up and down. “How long was the masquerade meant to last, I wonder?” He sighed when she remained silent, and stood. “Well, there’s time enough to untangle that part.”

She thought of her father.

Her niece, and nephew. Her brother, who had warned her not to push her luck for much longer. She hoped they got out in time. They still might, if this visit was only meant to test their theory.

Rockfort Island. “Tell me more about the headaches. They usually come with a spike in the exposure factor.”

Oh.

Heh.

The two researchers had stood quickly, apparently signally the guards at the door to hold the exit as they. moved to the other side of the glass. “Boys?” She called at their retreating backs. They paused in the doorway. “Are you sure about this? It won’t go the way you think it will.” She seemed to relax, rising slowly as the guards held their positions. She gave them a rueful little smile. “Everyone thinks they’re more clever than anyone else around,” she continued, almost to herself. Birkin shot her a startled look, then shut the door behind them.

A steel-tipped fountain pen laid by her hand, inlaid with the Umbrella logo. She picked it up thoughtfully, smiling at the guards as if they had just arrived for tea. A hissing sound above her head told her that some sort of gas was being released into the room. She’d have to move fast. “Gentlemen,” she said, “I do apologize for this.”

Reaching down, she hefted the heavy table up to flip it over in the direction of her would-be assailants as if it were made of matchsticks, and began to advance upon the door.

Time to let go.

---

Something was wrong with her eyes. The room swam in and out of focus while she stumbled along the corridor towards the exit.

Somewhere along the way, she’d lost her pen.

(the guard rushing towards her, his comrade crying weakly, struggling to free his broken legs from under the table. A lateral hammer blow embedded the lethally sharp tip through his temple)

Their reinforced door of the conference room had been reasonably strong, but it was easy to forget about walls. She’d made her own exit with very little fuss, to the horror of onlookers.

(stepping through the hole, covered in drywall dust and splashed in the blood of the guards. She’d make a very effective poltergeist if she weren’t so damned grim. Her glasses are abandoned and cracked on the floor. Her smart blazer, ripped while she was ‘remodeling’, now discarded. A small combat knife had been tucked into a sheath at her back- good tailoring had made it easy to miss. Should anyone here survive, they’ll start screening guests for weapons after this)

The two researchers had called for backup quickly. On her right, a vaguely familiar-looking brunette in her late thirties came rushing past her, throwing herself at the guards with fury, tearing at their weapons and helmets with her bare hands. More running footsteps followed. Someone screamed to lock down the level.

While the gas hadn’t quite taken her down, it had had some effect. She felt oddly drunk, weaving and pushing her way through the corridor towards the elevator, towards the exit. To hell with it. She might as well earn her punishment.

Someone fired a shot. A sharp pain passed through her shoulder. She looked down to see a trickle of blood from the wound, rapidly closing. She turned toward the terrified gaggle of guards, swaying slightly on her feet. The moment seemed to stretch out unbearably between them.

One of the arriving guards stepped up and shot the frenzied woman attacking them in the head, snapping the rest out of their fugue. The footsteps were getting closer; screams rang out above them, on the administrative level.

Marigold looked up, startled, “’S a new one,” she muttered. She’d suspected that this could happen, but it had been a theory. She had worked so hard to make sure it was only ever a theory.

The freshly murdered operations manager, a woman she’d had drinks with at a post-meeting social three years earlier, stared lifelessly at the ceiling, with more above ready to follow her into the abyss. The ones upstairs would follow her without a second thought. Because of her.

She really was a monster.

The room was starting to spin. Had to keep moving. The headache was progressing to the point where she was seeing spots in her vision, and that was never a good sign. It seemed to be eating the entire world.

A tall man in a labcoat and gas mask (cold) flashed in her periphery. Before she could respond, she felt a sharp pinch at her neck. Someone stepped firmly on the back of her knee, pushing her to the ground with a firm hand wrapped around the back of her neck as she lost the battle to stay upright.

She’d managed her human contact through clinical means and barriers of all kinds for years. Overtaxed and desperate, the hand pressing on the back of her neck made her cry out in shock. Marigold barely felt the restraints on her wrists clamp down as she tipped over the edge of consciousness, and the world quite suddenly went away.

How to Choose the Right VPS Plan for Your Needs

Selecting the perfect VPS hosting plan is a crucial decision for anyone looking to enhance their web presence. Whether you're running a small personal blog or managing a bustling e-commerce site, understanding how to choose the right VPS plan can significantly affect your site's performance and reliability. In this guide, we'll explore how to find a VPS plan that meets your specific business needs efficiently and effectively.

Understanding VPS Hosting

VPS hosting stands out in the web hosting world due to its ability to give users more control and flexibility over their virtual environment. With Virtual Private Server (VPS) hosting, you get your own segment of a server, with dedicated resources like RAM and CPU, ensuring your website runs smoothly even during peak traffic times. This setup provides enhanced performance compared to shared hosting, where resources are spread thinner among multiple users.

Benefits of Using a VPS

One of the main advantages of VPS hosting is scalability. If your website grows and requires more resources, you can easily upgrade your plan to accommodate increased traffic. VPS hosting also provides improved security features, as your virtual environment is isolated from other users on the server. Additionally, with root access, you have the freedom to install and configure software as needed, tailoring your server to your specific needs.

Analyzing Your Requirements

Before selecting or Buy VPS Server, it's essential to analyze your website's requirements. Consider factors such as the expected traffic volume, the type of content you'll be hosting, and any specific applications your site will run. Understanding these needs will help you determine the necessary resources, such as RAM, CPU power, and storage capacity, ensuring you don't overspend on unnecessary features or skimp on essential ones.

Evaluating Performance Needs

Performance is a critical factor when choosing a VPS plan. Look for servers equipped with powerful CPUs and ample RAM to handle your website's load efficiently. For high-traffic sites, consider plans with SSD storage, which provides faster data access speeds than traditional HDDs. Ensure the VPS provider's infrastructure can support your performance needs, offering reliable and fast connections.

Importance of Location

Server location can impact your website's speed and performance. Choosing a VPS provider with data centers close to your target audience can reduce latency and improve loading times. If you have a global audience, select a provider with multiple data center locations worldwide to ensure optimal performance for all users.

Exploring Security Features

Security is paramount for any online presence. When evaluating VPS plans, consider providers offering robust security measures, such as firewalls, DDoS protection, and regular backups. Additionally, look for VPS providers with a strong track record in cybersecurity, ensuring your data and applications remain safe from potential threats.

Considering Operating Systems

Your choice of operating system will depend on your specific application requirements and preferences. Most VPS providers offer both Linux and Windows hosting options. Linux is often preferred for its flexibility and cost-effectiveness, while Windows is ideal for applications requiring a Windows environment. Ensure the operating system you choose is compatible with the software and frameworks your site requires.

Assessing Technical Support

Reliable customer support can be a lifesaver when issues arise. Look for VPS providers that offer 24/7 technical support through multiple channels, such as live chat, email, or phone. Efficient and knowledgeable support teams can help resolve issues quickly, minimizing downtime and keeping your website running smoothly.

Comparing Pricing and Plans

Pricing is a significant consideration when selecting a VPS plan. While it's tempting to choose the cheapest option, ensure the plan offers the resources and features your site needs. Compare plans based on their CPU, RAM, storage, bandwidth, and additional benefits, such as free backups or SSL certificates. Choose a plan that balances cost with value, offering the best features for your budget.

Examining Scalability Options

Your website's needs may change over time, so it's essential to select a VPS provider that offers flexible scalability options. Ensure you can easily upgrade or downgrade your plan as required, without incurring excessive costs or experiencing downtime. This flexibility will allow your hosting to grow alongside your business, accommodating increased traffic or new applications effortlessly.

Checking User Reviews and Reputation

Research the reputation of potential VPS providers by reading customer reviews and testimonials. Look for feedback on performance, reliability, and customer support, as these factors are crucial to a successful VPS experience. Trusted review platforms and forums can provide valuable insights into the experiences of other users, helping you make an informed decision.

Understanding Terms and Conditions

Before committing to a VPS plan, carefully review the provider's terms and conditions. Pay attention to details such as service level agreements (SLAs), renewal rates, and cancellation policies. Understanding these terms will help you avoid surprises down the line, ensuring a smooth and transparent hosting experience.

Making the Final Decision

With a comprehensive understanding of your requirements, budget, and the available options, you can confidently choose the right VPS plan for your needs. Consider all the factors discussed in this guide, and weigh the pros and cons of each provider before making your final decision. Remember, the right VPS plan will offer a perfect balance of performance, security, and scalability, enabling your website to thrive.

Conclusion
