IANAL but... "exclusive, irrevocable"? This isn't a publishing contract. This is a "you agree that everything you ever write forever is work for hire for us" contract. If you're fuzzy on the whole "work for hire" thing? Go read up on what the Kowalski family did to Bob Ross.

As long as Mozilla keep the AI slop an option, even one I have to disable, I will continue using main line Firefox. Because as much as I hate Mozilla jumping on the AI slop bandwagon, I recognize that being competitive today requires getting on board.

I'd have said 'less than six hours.'

Popularity is not, and never has been, a measure of quality.

It was never true at Crunchyroll. The guy who founded the company started out *selling* other groups' fansubs, and used that seed money to try to put fansubbers "out of business" by pumping out subs faster than the fansubbers. It was never about quality. It was about speed.

Could be. I might just be reading into it based on things Young and Shaw said in their VH1 "Behind The Music" episode and how the Kilroy Was Here tour was an unpleasant time for the band (it tore the band apart).

Makes sense. There's bad blood between the band (Young/Shaw) and Dennis DeYoung, so covering the cover lets the band play the song while keeping the separation from DeYoung.

Just like Baron Harkonnen in Dune when Duke Leto broke open his poison tooth.

When I was younger and these were running on the local PBS station (Channel 2, you know it), Baker was my favorite. Over time I came to appreciate Pertwee's Doctor over Baker's.

There was a Kindle version of "Excession" in 2019. Do you know if anything is different about this edition?

Holy frijoles. Sign me up.

Making payments on a debt generally is good for one's credit rating. I don't know that this is the reason. It's only a reason.

According to Nasu, ALL of these different timelines and branches are canon. So even though Heracles isn't in /zero, he's still canonically Archer class, except in /sn where he's Berserker by name as well as by class.
Did I mention that it's a fucking mess?

The lore reason is because Gilgamesh isn't Archer in the F/sn Grail War. He's Archer from the previous Grail War.
The narrative reason is that would get confusing because Archer is Rin's servant.
The meta reason is that the Greater Nasu-verse is a fucking mess. I say that as a (former) F/GO player.

Because "Berserker" is who Heracles is under that summoning clause. He's not Heracles any more. He's Berserker.
Heracles would be Archer class when summoned normally.

Tangentially, I can't wear rimless glasses. The pins that attach the bridge to the lenses floats *just* at the edge of my peripheral vision so when I look a little bit left or right SUDDENLY there is this THING IN MY EYES!

I don't. Never have. Just isn't funny to me.
