Recently I decided to replay the NES versions of Dragon Warrior 1+2 for the first time since 2000/2001. I've been playing these games since the original 1989/1991 NES release and while I've done the remakes since the early 2000s, this is the first time I've decided to go back to the OG since then. Thoughts:

Dragon Warrior 1 is far worse than Dragon Warrior 2. All the grind is real. I still enjoyed the playthrough, but damn it feels like for every hour of gameplay you'll spend maybe 5 minutes actually moving the story along and the rest fighting.

Compared to other games of its era line Ultima 4, DW1 feels very barebones. I still love it of course, but I was surprised by just how empty it

Where is the best salsa from either a supermarket or a restaurant that sells it on the side? I used to love the Smart & Final Salsa Taqueria but they discontinued it last year. It was $3.99 for 24 ounces and they also had a giant container for about $10. most supermarket salsas are mediocre or expensive ($5-6 for 12-16 oz.) Anything in a jar that's shelf stable is out of the question. Those are never as good as fresh salsa.

Anywhere near DTLA or Silver lake would be preferred.

There is always a lot of debate on when childhood starts and ends on this sub, but it seems the most popular end dates on this sub include 12 years old as part of childhood. I'm gonna attempt to give a compelling and convincing argument that

a. Social factors are more important than pure numbers

b. 11 and 12 aren't for most people childhood

This will obviously be an article with a US bias (see a above) and a modern bias (again see a, I do think my answer would have been something else in the era from the past where elementary school was k-6 and middle school was called Jr. High School and ran 7-9). I'll also explain why 9 isn't a good end year, which I've seen some people use if they u

I noticed that he has 2 books on the topic: Earth Divination Earth Magic, and The Art And Practice Of Geomancy. Most of what I've seen recommends the latter as the absolute best book available and the former I literally can't find much on at all. Are they more or less the same thing? Is one a revision of the other? And which is the best?

Daily here you have lots of people fighting about generational boundaries. Oftentimes the argument is little more than "Generation whatever begins at x year because I say so". People get really dug into their preconceptions and will willfully ignore all evidence that goes against it.

My controversial proposals are simple:

A. Stop pretending that every generation has to be equal in length. The usual range given for a generation is 15-20 years. But at the same time the definitive definition of the greatest generation seems to be people who were too young to fight in WW1 but old enough to be drafted in WW2, which gives us a range of 27 years. And the greatest generation is literally only one

Recently as in the past few weeks I've started to finally get into Friends. I hated it in the 90s, hated it in reruns, and until recently was one of those people who would trash the show. It was well behind other major sitcoms of its era in my view. To be honest I thought it always would be. I'd been giving it a chance every year or few since the mid 90s, usually just watching an episode before deciding I didn't like it and putting it away again. The jokes were obvious, the characters were stupid, and it very often felt like they were doing scripts that were Three's Company rejects with a slight bit of dressing up. I'm not one who gives up easily on something that everyone seems to like exce

If so, how did you like it? Do you mail your coursework to a teacher for verification or submit it online? Are there people available to answer questions you may have? What's the feedback like?

I'm interested in taking it, but am also open to other text based alternatives that have you receive feedback from a pro. Not really interested in any courses that are audio/video based... I don't learn well from those.
