I was reading the mail section of Folio, and it turns out that Jacksonville resident Charles Day was murdered.
My full name is Charles Tyler Day.
I'm worried....

When it comes for you and says "Charles Day?" just say "no, he moved out last week."

The TX will probably try to replicate one of your attractive female friends. Your only course of actions is to demand they all submit to Zaia's 'booby game'. I doubt even a terminator could fool that.

Given that it's already infiltrated the computer networks, it is IP-tracking you from this site now.
Bye bye.

Let us see...
If it's a:
T-XA = You're extraordinerily and immensely fucked.
T-X = You're fucked, not in they way you'd like though
T-1000 = You're immensely fucked.
I-950 = You're fucked, but if you have information, you may be fucked in the way you'd like.
T-850 = You're very fucked.
T-800 = You're fucked pal.
So, to summerise, You are fucked.

I don't know these models. Care to elaborate?

Don't start worrying until another person by the same name dies.

I know the I-950 was from the books. It was a born human with cybernetic implants. Don't know about the T-XA.

The T-XA is from the lesser known (They vary in quality, when they're good, they're very, very good, when they're bad, they're pretty appalling, there's more good bits than poor bits though) trilogy of books by Russel Blackford. It's what the T-X should have been, it comes from a timeline in which Judgement Day happened in 2012, and John Connor was killed before then, thus that version of Skynet was winning the war.
It's full title is the T-XA 'experimental autonomous model.'
T2 The new John Connor cronicles {I suspect some editor put that in the title} - Dark Futures, by Russel Blackford wrote:Elsewhere in the huge, densely populated city, more blue lightning played, like a crown of writhing hair, above a four story building in the Zona Rosa. What emereged on the building's roof looked human, but quite extraordinary. It was a naked, shaven-headed man, over eight feet tall, with hands the size of shovels.
The giant T-XA Terminator [...]
Time to act quickly. The T-XA changed, loosing the characteristics of any specific human. It became smooth, sexless, abstract. Clawing the fingers of one powerful hand, it reached inside its massive chest, which parted viscously. Its arm sank nearly to the elbow.
The T-XA felt no pain from its time displacement. Its carefully tuned, multiply redundant nanoware had ridden the space time displacement field better than any living flesh.
It withdrew the arm, a phased-plasma laser {well, there probably is a laser element there somewhere.} rifle now gripped in its big bouder of a fist; a black metal weapon almost three feet long, with no stock attached.
It can also split itself into multiple independant parts (most of the time it spends as a couple and a dog), scan objects for mimicing without requiring physical contact, detect time field displacement equipment in operation from some distance, and occasionally control humans in much the same way the T-X can control machines (by injecting it with "nanoware fragments" that control the host's neural function, or they can assimilate the memories of a victim, even a recently dead one).
It also acts in a more intelligent manner than the other terminators (bar the T-1000, who it acts in the same way as) we've seen. Its reactions are faster and it has greater strength than a T-1000 also.
We see three throughout the books, One of them fights about five reprogrammed T-800s to a standstill, before being destroyed by combined fire from dozens of plasma rifles and cannons. The two others are destroyed in equally difficult ways, including being scattered throughout time and space via Time Displacement.

Robert: "It can't be bargained with, it can't be reasoned with. It doesn't feel pity, or remorse. And it absolutely will not stop,
ever, until you dead."
Setzer: "Can you stop it?"
Robert: "Nope. Was nice knowing you."

Have Sheppard cover for you...I'm sure he's got enough of an arsenal in his house to hold off Godzilla for a week.

Hey, I didn't include the backyard in the estimate did I? No. I mean really, everyone knows that with the arsenal in his backyard AND in his house that Shep could take on a Culture ship and have a 75% chance of victory.
