Oh my gosh. You have my condolences! 😆
Honestly it is great that Star Wars has such variety! I never used to like it all, but finding head canon and leniency has helped a lot to enjoy the more disagreeable parts (think episode 9).
But yes you’d be right, since I will never like the holiday special, nor allow myself to see more than a YouTube video about it 👀
What if I told you I like all of Star Wars?
I’d second Kinoite, it has been rock solid and really does feel next gen. Especially nice that Universal Blue extends its capacity, being just one rebase away.
Perhaps, though we mustn’t forget the first movie shows Luke’s adoptee parents as skeletons on screen and has blood when Obi Wan dismembers that alien in the Mos Eisley canteen.
The Jedi are SO competent with the force. Some memorable points (spoilers ofc):
- The masters’ restraint in never igniting their lightsabers unless lethality is absolutely necessary, relying on the force as their primary defence.
- The contrast between Yord’s anxious rule-focussed approach and Sol’s force-led approach.
- Torbin’s impenetrable force aura whilst meditating - for over 10 years!!
- Sol’s ability to restrain Mae in-place whilst using the force to figure out what she knows
- Every single example of Jedi mind trick use
- The lightsaber hilts and sounds each being more refined and elegant imo
Instantly sending me back to the pre-prequel era games, books & comics this series is. I am so glad that they chose to flesh out this era with the High Republic books first to ensure we have a vast array of literature and strong world building to draw from.
Naturally hyped for next week. We’re eating well today.
Listening now, great coverage! Even in disagreement, they've insight, contacts, and experience that makes this worth hearing.

Every article has spin tbf. Neutrality is not a thing that exists.
Given that personal sensitive data doesn’t leave a device except when authorised, a bad actor would need to access a target’s device or somehow identify and compromise the specific specially hardened Apple silicon server, which likely does not have any of the target’s data since it isn’t retained after computing a given request.
Accessing someone’s device leads to greater threats than prompt injection. Identifying and accessing a hardened custom server at the exact time data is processed is exceptionally difficult as a request. Outside of novel exploits of a user’s device during remote server usage, I suspect this is a pretty secure system.
