gollark: According to my notes: Chaotic Lawful: has a strict moral code but nobody knows what on earth it is.Lawful Chaotic: creates as much chaos as possible by following the letter of the law to ridiculous extremes.Chaotic Chaotic: you are chaos itself. You are responsible for the end of the universe. You are Limbo, you are madness.
gollark: I vaguely remember reading that they were testing for it weirdly. Still, it's a worrying possibility.
gollark: And there are loads of different vaccine projects going on, so if it's possible to make one one of them will probably work it out.
gollark: I don't think the "you can't be immune" thing is actually very well evidenced.
gollark: A well-programmed one could log locally and upload later.
