In that case, let me clarify. I have very strong feelings(negative) about Seed and Seed Destiny amplifies said feelings to the point where I cannot respectfully or coherently express them

That's fine, everybody is entitled to their feelings.

I'm ok with Seed / Seed Destiny. But it's not my favorite like 00 is.

Yeah Seed easily beats everything else outside the UC timeline and holds up damn well to what I consider to what I enjoy the most from UC. Still, for me, nothing beats The Origin.

Seed is just a modernization and alternate re-telling of the original Gundam series, but in AU.
Seed Destiny is just a cluster fuck of multiple UC story lines along with having one of the main writers change things because she thinks one of the Seiyuus within the show was cheating with her husband, so she drastically changed the storyline.

Perhaps I could have worded it better. My contempt for Seed and G must've seeped in. The point I was getting at is, the Gundams outside the U.C. are there to satisfy an aesthetic necessity. Can't call your show Gundam without any Gundams. However their presence and power is severely undermined when compared to the original premise as there's a greater emphasis on the pilots than the actual mobile suits themselves. I will concede that 00 was pretty good about giving a greater emphasis on the tech side of things

00 is my favorite series out of all the Gundam that I've watched =D

Just. Iconic, recognizable, and as demonstrated throughout multiple series is mostly just hindered by pilot skill. A great one will still be able to give a newer Gundam pilot a tough time.

Pilot Skill is separate from Mobile Suit Capability.

A good Pilot could even make the GM Ball deadly.

But that's a separate issue from features, capabilities, and design.

A whistleblower claims the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) sent workers to receive the first Americans evacuated from China during the coronavirus outbreak without proper training or protective gear, The Washington Post reported Thursday.

The complaint was reportedly filed Wednesday with the Office of the Special Counsel.

The whistleblower is a senior HHS official based in Washington seeking federal protection after alleging they were unfairly reassigned after raising concerns about the safety of these workers, according to the Post.

That looks more like "Incompetency" than lack of caring, unless you can prove that they deliberately sent that person to be a potential infection victim knowingly.

I thank god every day that I didn't grow up in this era. I got my first phone when I was already a HS junior in like 2002. My first smartphone was like my 2nd year of college.

I mean, I'm addicted to my phone even now, but at least I had a childhood where people didn't have bright screens in their faces 24/7. Back then, it was just Game Boy/Gear.

Sometimes, I find myself "detoxing" nowadays where i would do my usual errands and leave my phone and smartwatch at home. Totally offline.

My goodness is that liberating.

would the world be prepared if China was more transparent in discovery and origin of this? it took dying people to expose the severity of this remember?

China doesn't give two shits about transparency.

The CCP(Chinese Communist Party) deliberately hides things because it only cares about staying in power by all means necessary.

The average Chinese citizen has ZERO methods of rebelling against the CCP.

The VERY FIRST major act that Mao Ze Dong did in his Communist revolution after using the people to defeat "Chiang Kai-Shek's" forces and driving them to Taiwan was to confiscate arms from the civilian population and ban them from ever owning arms.

Now the average Chinese citizen has ZERO means of fighting back and are subject to the CCP's every order, command, decree, whim, & fancy.

That's why there was the initial 8 weeks cover-up before they finally admitted to things.

They cared more about social stability and harmony.

More than half the time they initiate the convo. Tbf they're usually like 40 tho. So nevermind, that kind of kills the whole generation aspect. It's funny when people say stuff like this and also hate the idea of Pokemon Go tho. That game literally used people looking at their phones as the reason to initiate conversation with others. It literally brought back public socializing to a high that we hadn't seen in a long time.

Other day my daughter begged me to go to a Valentine party at her school.

It was end of day and was preparing to take her home. This kid goes up to the teacher and says "Give me my phone NOW!" She is like "Is that how you ask?" Then he goes "I'm telling my parents you stole my phone!!! Give it to me NOW!" She then apologized and said it was in her desk. He then ran over and started rampaging through her stuff.

I sooo wanted to just slap the shit out of that phone out of his hand and smash it to point it was unusable.

It was disgusting and worse was how the teacher felt afraid to take his phone, because of the kids parents. This was 5th grade.

My policy would be parents have to come claim the phone, kids wouldn't be allowed access to it until parents come and pick it up.

Otherwise you get behavior like that little twerp.

My kids rarely use their phones. They are usually either playing video games or with their toys.

But then from birth I banned every kid in my home from Social Media.

No YouTube/Twitter/Kik/Facebook etc.

If they discover some shit that is social media like. I ban it.

Both my kids get straight A's and win 1st place regional tournanents.

Technology is fine, the problem is the social media garbage.

Sadly my I can't bar my wife, so she is addicted and acts like a mindless idiot to it.

Though when I point it out to her, she usually cuts it off for like a year before she goes back.

When their friends come over I tell them no youtube or snap chat shat ever as well and take their phones. They have to ask me if they want to call their parents.

You'd think no one would want to spend the night because of it. But instead they act like my home is the amazing fun house full of video games, and board games, and lots of box experiments (I buy those science kits from Walmart when ever they put them on clearance and have 100s). So I always have multiple kids begging to stay here every weekend.

Heck durring summer a Kid stayed here over a month.

If I had my way, ALL schools would bar Smart Phones & Smart Devices from schools until College.
High Schools would allow ONLY Dumb Phones, and ONLY be useable in between class or during lunch break. Otherwise it has to be OFF.

All Tests would require Ti level calculators, no Smart Devices of any sort are allowed during tests.

The Monster Hunter Universe is generally "Magic Free".

What Im saying is we all see the F-22 as the most cutting edge fighter plane right now, at least in a lot of peoples eyes (lol at the f-35) that F-22 is already 3 generations behind due to the production, development, etc of said plane. So yah, out there in Nevada is something 3 generations ahead of the F-22 and I totally believe that.

And to clarify, Im not saying its 3 generations behind another nation, Im just saying there is technology more advanced then what theyre using now.

https://breakingdefense.com/2014/06/gen-mike-hostage-on-the-f-35-no-growlers-needed-when-war-starts/

https://www.airforcemag.com/article/The-F-35-on-Final-Approach/

Hostage caused a stir in late spring when, in press interviews, he said the F-35 would be stealthier than the F-22, its larger USAF stablemate. Conventional wisdom had pegged the F-22, with its angled, vectored-thrust engines, as a stealthier machine than the F-35. Hostage also said the F-35 would be unbeatable when employed in numbers, which is why the full buy of aircraft is so critical.
I would say that General Hostage is accurate in his statement about the simple stealthiness of the F-35 [with regard] to other airplanes, Bogdan said in the interview. The statement was accurate for radar cross section, as measured in decibels, and range of detectability, he said, and he scoffed at the notion that anyone can tell how stealthy an aircraft is just by looking at it.
The comment about the effectiveness of F-35s together has less to do with stealthiness and more to do with overall survivability, he said.
We are going to ask the F-35 to do things that no other airplanefourth gen or otherwiseis going to be able to do in the future, he stated. For some of those missions, it would be much better to do it with more than one F-35.
Besides their stealthiness, the F-35s share information and can perform electronic warfare, electronic attack, and cyber missions.
When you put two F-35s in the battlespace, they become even more survivable when they do it together, Bogdan asserted. With two or more, the sum of the parts is greater than the whole, especially when the aircraft are teaming up from different parts of the airspace, on the same targets. It becomes quite effective.

F-22 production was cut short by Obama.

F-35 is the modern "Smart Phone" while the F-22 is equivalent in analogy to a very "Advanced Feature Phone".

F-35 is a paradigm shift while other nations using legacy 4th gen aircraft are playing with literally "Zack Morris style Brick Phones"

... ill be waiting on that citation

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Northrop_Grumman_B-2_Spirit

In 1974, DARPA requested information from U.S. aviation firms about the largest radar cross-section of an aircraft that would remain effectively invisible to radars.[9] Initially, Northrop and McDonnell Douglas were selected for further development. Lockheed had experience in this field due to developing the Lockheed A-12 and SR-71, which included a number of stealthy features, notably its canted vertical stabilizers, the use of composite materials in key locations, and the overall surface finish in radar-absorbing paint. A key improvement was the introduction of computer models used to predict the radar reflections from flat surfaces where collected data drove the design of a "faceted" aircraft. Development of the first such designs started in 1975 with "the Hopeless Diamond", a model Lockheed built to test the concept.[10]

The B-2 was first publicly displayed on 22 November 1988 at United States Air Force Plant 42 in Palmdale, California, where it was assembled. This viewing was heavily restricted, and guests were not allowed to see the rear of the B-2. However, Aviation Week editors found that there were no airspace restrictions above the presentation area and took aerial photographs of the aircraft's then-secret rear section[27] with suppressed engine exhausts.[citation needed] The B-2's (s/n 82-1066 / AV-1) first public flight was on 17 July 1989 from Palmdale to Edwards AFB
