Back-to-back generations of people uncomfortable with sincerity and earnestness; completely superficial and pathologically self-conscious. Their sophomoric irony culture rotted them to their very core. Future sociologists will study this and provide a coherent explanation.
Millennials and Gen-Xers have this seething hatred and contempt for media having sincerity for some reason. All they want is serious mood killing jokes like every scene and line of dialogue has to be a quirk chungas joke in order for these people to enjoy it.

The Star Wars Prequels are cinematic masterpieces and I really don't care what miserable curmudgeons think about them. I'm sorry that the storytelling was too intelligent for you and there weren't enough superweapons being blown up by hekkin' rebels.
If you think the Star Wars prequels are "Cinematic masterpieces", your opinion on film should not be taken seriously. I am being very charitable by saying they are mid.

Growing up as an OT guy, when the prequels dropped, the takeaway is that the BBY era, like our own, was but a shadow of the high-culture that came before it. We didn’t know that the OT was actually post-apocalyptic, and fallen, until the prequels. Culturemogged/10.

Only gay retard dork boomers who pull their socks up and tuck their shirts in and wear New Balance shoes thought this was bad. Every kid who grew up watching the prequels thought they were cool as fuck and WAY fucking cooler than the original trilogy. Do you know how many Lego sets they had?

Unquestionably. Literally Homeric in its long-term cultural implications. Anyone arguing the contrary is revealing themselves to be grotesquely unsophisticated, spiritually uncomfortable, Reddit-level slopsuckers.
Revenge of the Sith is a masterpiece.

The lack of gutter-tier, profoundly unserious 4th wall humor is pure millennial repellant. There’s zero irony in the prequels and millennials are innately too pretentious to approach anything earnestly. They can’t help but reveal themselves.
the reason millenial nerds feel a compulsion to shit on the star wars prequels, despite the obvious cinematic brilliance, is they are played entirely earnest. there is no jim from the office winking at the camera, which makes them excruciating to the irony poisoned millenial mind

Mask off moment, for Matt. Total revelation. Uncultured. Brutish. Deeply unserious. Bereft of high culture.

Champ really told on himself. Déclassé, uncultured he-bitch.
They fail at being epic operas even more than they fail at realism. The writing and acting is mostly flat and boring. Same goes for the cinematography. There’s nothing operatic about it. Epic perhaps in theory but certainly not in execution. You guys have created a version of the Star Wars prequels in your heads (a version that sounds pretty interesting, if only it existed) and have grafted it onto the actual films which in reality fail at whatever they were trying to do, unless they were trying to be verbose, clumsy, wooden, and bland. It’s very clear to the rest of us that the people trying to rehab the Star Wars prequels are just nostalgic for something that they enjoyed as kids. That’s fine. I have a nostalgic attachment to some crappy 90s movies like Independence Day for example. It came out when I was 10 and at the time it seemed to me like the greatest cinematic achievement in history. But then I grew up and I can now see that Will Smith punching an alien and saying “welcome to earf” is not a high point of western art. And that’s fine. It’s stupid but I still remember it fondly. You don’t have to try so hard to intellectualize some dumb bullshit you liked when you were a kid. It’s okay. It can just be dumb bullshit, which it is.

Every ounce of social capital this guy built, burnt on the pyre of Millennial Midwittery. Helluva hill to die on.

Real. I can’t even prepare for the apocalypse, because I have my own personal apocalypse at the house with my insurance company. Just scraping by is like pissing into an ocean of piss. Help this man.

Goal is to keep everyone happy and accessible. I’m personally happy with acoustic interface on a UV-5R, but I’m willing to concede Meshnerds want functionality. That’s a lower priority, but we’re going to add it to the layer stack.
Within 36hr of project initiation we’ve completely blown Rattlegram out of the water with a better waveform and enabled inherent cache clearing with automated SALUTE reporting and standard ICS forms. Fifth interface layer will be added to tomorrow’s build.

We’ll see how development goes. I was moving heaven and earth and decided mid-game to monkey with the UI and blew up references. There WILL be user-selectable, inherent AES-256.

Well… Uhhhh…yes, to…uhhh…protect HIPPA information for first responders. I’m getting the UI and modem up and running first, but, yes, it will have a toggleable AES-256 payload and if all goes well, OTAR. 🤞🏻

Current interface list: 1) Analog acoustic modem 2) Line-in/Direct Analog modem 3) Line-in/Direct DMR modem 4) WiFi/Starlink/IP Layer 5 will be for the LoRa dorks and Meshtastic/Meshcore users.

The Dark Knight, Terminator 2, The Godfather Part II, and The Empire Strikes Back aren’t available. What’s the greatest movie sequel of all time?
