I regularly jam tunes from 4, 6, 7, 8 and 10.

9 is super experimental for Uematsu and he does a great job in capturing the essence of the environment. But I don't jam to flamenco music and medieval tunes.

You Are Not Alone and Melodies of Life are quality though.

Literally started whistling You're Not Alone after entering this topic.

Still, I really can't decide. When it comes to Final Fantasy, I tend to mainly listen to just my favorites from each game.

If anything, maybe a tie between 6, 8, and 9? I think those might have a couple more songs in my list than the other games.

Just realized the opening notes of Scars of Time are from Corridors of Time. Mitsuda is a fucking genius.

Chrono Trigger had an incredible leitmotif, that he managed to bring over to some of Cross's songs.

Xenogears's ost is another masterpiece of his. I'd rank it slightly lower than the Chrono games, though.

It was probably a common thing back in the day. Sickness, supply shortage, bad weather, etc. probably led to a lot of ghost ships floating around to the point where it became ingrained into our culture.

Also, makes for some great narratives (e.g. Legend of Dragoon, Return of the Obra Dinn, etc.).

Hopefully urgent care facilities are informed and try to avoid using nebulizers. I know it's popular for pretty much any type of respiratory symptom.

Also, might be a good idea to forgo contacts for a while and wear one's glasses instead. Either that or safety glasses/other PPE.

What kind of TV and monitor?

You're basically choosing between color and response time. Even the best TVs can't match a basic monitor's response time, which is why I used a monitor for my consoles up until very recently.

But a lot of games nowadays are made with HDR in mind, so if you want a nicer color palette, then go with the TV (unless you have a monitor with HDR, of course).

I have a really hard time believing that figure.

1,126,501 is the number of k-12 students in NYC. 119,551 of those attend charter schools (so presumably they have access to showers/laundry at home). Which leaves about 1,006,590 students in public schools.

So you're telling me almost 75% of kids in NYC don't have access to showers at home??

I could believe maybe 75,000, but not 750,000.

750k low income, and 114k homeless.

Food is probably an assumption for low income, and bathing/laundry is for the homeless (which, really? 1 in 10 kids in NYC public schools are homeless?)
