If you like the old way of doing things, go with the DM42. If you are a frappuccino-sipping, selfie-snapping Millennial, the Prime might be a better fit.
Such generalizations disqualify themselves as they superficially seem "cool" but then after a bit of thinking they really show how empty they are.
Every generation has good and bad apples (according to this or that moral metric). You cannot really say that an entire generation of million of people is less worth than other generations, that would make no statistical or historical sense.
Without considering that you are insulting million of people at once. A quick way to classify oneself as bad.
Oh the humanity!!! Time to seek out a "safe space"?
I referred to people like me who like RPN as "old guys" as well, even though I don't consider myself (that) old.
Lighten up a little. It was a joke.
