Is Threshold worse than Code of Honor?
I’d say it’s worst. Being racist is horrible, but it wasn’t until “Threshold” that ST became actively and willingly stupid.

If not the most imaginative, certainly the most inspiring, and it evokes a strong insertion in our reality.
Alls I can say is you’re listening to the wrong kind of music is you think all current music is vapid.
And all I can say is that your reading comprehension is lacking if you attribute me saying that all music is valid. I said “mostly”.
It’s honestly quite arrogant to think great artists stopped at our generation my guy.
And I had said so, I would agree. I, however, didn’t.
In any case, if music is your main focus, you could have used more prominence in the question, because your formulation seemed to indicate that there were other things you wanted to “keep up with” too. If I had understood that music was your primary focus, I would have abstained from participating. Which I will start doing right now.
Do you not believe that music, particularly the lyrics, is a snapshot in time of what the artists ideas and beliefs are?
It once was. Now music is mostly the result of an industry churning sellable platitudes and blandness.
As I believe music is the most emotive form of expression.
When you have sensible artists who talk about things beyond their own petty and minimal experience, perhaps. This is less and less frequent.
In any case, for me music is a very personal pleasure, I don’t compare notes frequently regarding what one “needs to like to be up to date”. I like what I like, and it’s not very transferrable. I rejoice when I find matches, but I don’t want to “learn what I must like” to be “modern” because that “gives me the pulse of the zeitgeist”.
There is huge divide between generations from the elders and it’s usually due to ignorance or superiority and it achieves nothing.
Preferred music doesn’t do much about it. Your focus in it was the main thing that confused me.
If you had mentioned having discussions about ideas I would understood better.
I honestly think your view is weird. Why wouldn’t you want to understand your fellow humans more.
Again, you mentioned music, which for “understanding my fellow humans” is fundamentally irrelevant to me. Discussions about philosophy, ethics, or politics are much more relevant.
Or maybe you just want to understand why they like the music they like and nothing beyond that, which is valid, but painting it as “understanding fellow humans” is a little too grandiose.
So I’m wondering what I can do to keep in the loop with my younger brothers and sisters?
The question is completely weird to me. Why do you care? Why do you think that is important?
Probably the latter. Prepuces are actually a sign of the pact of the god with the Hebrews. Specifically.
Because one is ordered by their favorite imaginary character in their favorite fairy tale book.
I think that’s mainly in the US, though. For the rest of the world the price tag is too high and the iPhone is the mark of the pretentious or the hipster. Or the iOS developer 😄
The rest of us are happy with our Android phones.
I’m not saying go around and insult people.
You’re not communicating well, then.
You can tell by my parent comment I have good intentions.
Actually, I can’t. I don’t know you. Your insulting and condescending tone in those parts contradicts your purported attempts to help.
There is no context whatsoever In which the very loaded and insulting word “weirdo” is acceptable. Just because you have trained your family members to accept insults as information, that doesn’t mean it’s OK.
So for instance if a neurodivergent or non-social person acts in a way you disapprove, it’s OK to bully them, according to you? Just so we’re clear.
Fix yourself.
Phrases like this or “stop being a weirdo” are aggressive, insulting, and only work for you to feel superior to the OP.
Even something like “you have a lot of unsolved issues, you should see a therapist before attempting to befriend your ex”, though equally blunt, is less deliberately insulting.
For some strange reason that’s used in Argentina also. Not sure why here the ground is the same length than the others, though.
Yup. Paraphrasing an old IT saying, you cannot grep Youtube videos.
One can debate if is better to create good, indexable articles that can reach a moderate number of people, or run-of-the-mill videos that reach millions but are less useful.
Not everyone has the attention span required to read through a Wikipedia page.
I contend that such lack of attention span makes difficult to learn anything in any way.
I hate the number of people teaching useful things using videos instead of writing articles.
Work is not high school. A few instances of you getting your phone and saying “Do you mind repeating that while I record you, so I can discuss with HR how you’re creating a hostile environment?” should at least curb some of those attempts at bullying.
I always think these movies end being used as instruction manuals.
