I've been considering switching my PC over to Linux as well. Would you recommend it from your experience? Anything you'd do differently if you could?

I lean more towards Aemon.

A few of the YouTube comments also make a good point that it's possible Lyanna didn't know that Rhaegar's son was dead at the time, so it would be strange to then have the second son also be named Aegon.

Correct. That all happened in Paths. It's all still "real" in that they do actually talk to each other before the end (all Eldians are connected to each other through Paths). It just didn't happen in the physical world is all.

The cabin scene happens in the Paths same as the Armin meeting. It's Eren and Mikasa "dreaming" of the life they weren't able to have together. Similar to Eren and Armin visiting the far away places they had dreamed of when reading Armin's book together.

The cabin scene would've happened in a timeline where Mikasa had confessed her feelings to Eren when they were in Marley together. When Mikasa calls him family. If Mikasa had confessed her feelings instead, Eren would've left everything behind to go and live in peace for the last four years Eren had left before his Titan timer ran out. Of course as a result, in that hypothetical timeline, Eren doesn't go forward with the rumbling and he therefore gives up his ability to guarantee his friends' safety.

The thing is, there is no alternate timeline in AOT. The future Eren saw when kissing Historia's hand was the only timeline that would happen. Mikasa wouldn't confess her feelings, Armin and Eren wouldn't be able to look at the wonders of the world together, and Eren would always follow through with the Rumbling, dooming himself while saving his friends in the process.

Since the power to wipe memories doesn't work on Mikasa, it would've happened right at the end just before Mikasa knew Eren's head was in the mouth.

Watched this one last night before going to bed. Woke up this morning and haven't been able to think of anything else today. The show nailed it. I generally liked the ending when I read the manga, but seeing it all animated last night, I can't think of this story being told any other way. It was perfect for me.

This was a frustrating article to read. It didn't give me any policy information about the old/new candidates and spent the whole time talking about how the two losers lost because of scandals and discontent by voters with the city council. I basically have no idea if the headline is true or not because I didn't get any info to tell me otherwise.

Might just be me, but it seemed like her whole demeanor changed too after she came back from WBW. A lot more upbeat and funny - just like she was in clone wars.

Surely it's not the last we see of Hayden this series, right?

Nice! I'll have to give it a listen. Thanks for the info!

I've seen some folks namedrop the "Not a Podcast" podcast. I haven't listened to it myself, so I'm not sure if it's just strictly a re-read of the chapters or if there's additional discussion to go along with each episode.

Thanks for posting. With this peacock streaming nonsense in the US, I'm stuck just catching highlights when I'm away from home.
