Hi! I am a digital artist looking to build a new PC as my current one is getting so old it can't even support Windows 11 (and with Windows 10 losing support in a year-ish I figured It's Time). I plan on purchasing all the parts within the next couple of weeks and assembling the PC (with help lol) sometime over the summer. I really don't know the first thing about any of the stuff that goes into this so I will fill out the answers as best ! can! Thank you for your help 🙏
I will follow the instructions
Questions

Is this a brand new build, or an upgrade to an existing build?

This will be a brand new build

Please list any existing parts or monitor(s) you have that you would like to re-use with this build. For upgrades, a PCPartPicker list of your full build is extremely helpful. Be as specific as you can be here, including links or exact model numbers of each component whenever possible.

No, everything on my current/old pc is 5-10 years old 💦

What will this PC be used for? Examples include things like gaming, general/multimedia use, photo/video editing, coding, AI/ML, etc. Include specific games and applications you intend to run, and any particular performance goals you have, as each may have different specific hardware needs.

I will mainly be using it for creating art and animations using both 2D and 3D software such as Clip Studio Paint and Blender. I would also like it to handle some casual gaming (most intensive I can think of are Subnautica, Outer Wilds, Another Crabs Treasure?) and streaming. I just need them to play well enough. I have some interest in game development as well although I don't have any software chosen for this purpose yet, its more of a dabble 🙏

What country will you be purchasing in? If you are in the US, do you live near a Micro Center? For other countries, please check if your country is supported by PCPartPicker by using the country selector dropdown on the top right - if not, please provide some links to reliable local vendors you are comfortable ordering from.

I am in the US and I can access a Micro Center

Do you need one or more monitors included in the budget? Please list how many and any size/resolution/refresh rate preferences if needed.

Yes, I would like one ~23-26 inch monitor. 1920x1080 resolution (seems pretty standard?). Good color accuracy is also fairly important

What is your preferred and maximum budget range for this build, in local currency? Parts lists may sometimes have additional shipping costs. Please note whether prices in your country include sales tax or not, and adjust your budget accordingly. Typically VAT countries will have it included in the part list prices, whereas regular sales tax countries like the US and Canada will not.

My preferred budget would be between $1500-$1800 but I'm willing to go up to ~$2000. I'm not terribly concerned on shipping/tax pushing it a little over.

Do you need WiFi, or do you have a wired ethernet connection available?

I have wired ethernet connection available

Do you have any specific size or noise requirements for the build?

My tower is mainly going to be sat on the floor on the outside of my desk, so the size can be pretty flexible as long as we can pick it up to put it on a table for occasional maintenance. Noise should ideally be quiet but i don't need it to be dead silent or anything.

Do you have any aesthetic preferences for color or lighting? Describe what you're looking for, or feel free to provide some links to examples that may help. Some people prefer an inobtrusive stealth build, while others may prefer a case full of rainbow RGB.

I'm more interested in practicality and longevity than aesthetics! I would prefer minimal/no lights but its not a dealbreaker. (I sleep in the same room as my PC and would rather not be awoken by a random rave when windows decides it needs to update lol)

Any other specific requests or requirements? Examples might include a specific minimum amount of storage, or a particular CPU socket for a future upgrade path, etc.

I would also like an internal blu-ray/disc drive if possible on a modern case

as above, for content my dad is gen x and my brother is older gen alpha and has level 2 autism. my dad has just stopped really caring, every day he lets my brother have sweets and fatty food and use his phone whenever he wants with zero limit. tonight i found out my dad let my brother have 17, yes 17, palm sized cookies. my fat self had 4 of them and started to feel nauseous, so i have NO idea why and how he ate 17 cookies. even when my mom tells my dad to stop letting my brother have whatever he wants, he will hide sweets just for him. my dad is also in complete denial that my brother stays up on his phone all night even on school nights, despite the fact that i tell him nearly every day due to him slamming his feet down the hallway all night. my dad refuses to do anything to stop my brother from using his phone 24/7. no, im not much better than my brother, i eat junk food and stay up on my phone, but the difference is that im grown and understand that my actions and choices have consequences. i just dont understand why my dad actively avoids doing anything to stop my brother from constantly indulging, he will never learn how to self regulate. my mom has a very weak backbone but she at least tries to teach him some self regulation. if anyone has any advice that would be nice, ive tried yelling at him and telling him what to do but he just doesnt. obligatory sorry for the formatting im on mobile, and sorry if this fits better on another sub. tl;dr: dad lets brother be an ipad kid, help:(!!

I recently built a PC with these components, except the RAM was originally the G.Skill Trident Z5 with all the same properties. After four days, I installed Baldur's Gate 3 and after loading in the game crashed. Then after playing about ten minutes I got a blue screen.
This issue continued at a very regular basis for the next week or so while playing Final Fantasy XIV. Sometimes my game would crash, sometimes I would get a BSOD, and sometimes my computer would simply restart without indication. (I even got a BSOD during the cutscene between P5 and P6 of TOP if that means anything to anyone.) I also got a BSOD during a meeting with my research advisor while running single-core Mathematica code. The dmp files, stop codes, and Windows Memory Diagnostic suggested a RAM issue, so I used it as an excuse to replace my RAM with the no RGB smaller version I preferred.
This did not seem to fix the issue, as just today I got another BSOD while watching a stream on discord and searching things on my browser. I have also attempted a windows fix using the option "Fix problems using Windows Update."
I was planning on uploading a zip file with all of my .dmp files from the blue screens, but for whatever reason my minidump folder seems to be gone. Perhaps they all disappeared after the "fix problems using Windows Update" thing. I realize that makes this way harder to troubleshoot, but hopefully the following stop codes can provide some insight.
MEMORY_MANAGEMENT
PFN_LIST_CORRUPT
FAULTY_HARDWARE_CORRUPTED_PAGE
This last stop code comes from after replacing my RAM. I received many other BSODs, but I was not able to take a photo of the screen in time.
Other potentially related issues include sometimes having to restart my computer after waking from sleep due to freezing on the startup screen before inputting a PIN, and being unable to open image files in the windows Photos application due to a file system error.

In recent years, metal office buildings have gained immense popularity due to their durability, cost-effectiveness, and modern aesthetic appeal. This trend is driven by the need for sustainable, flexible, and efficient workspace solutions. Designing a metal office building requires careful planning and consideration of various factors to ensure it meets both functional and aesthetic requirements. This comprehensive guide will walk you through the key aspects of designing a metal office building, from conceptualization to final construction.

Understanding the Benefits of Metal Office Buildings

Durability and Longevity
Metal buildings, particularly those made from steel, are known for their durability and resistance to harsh weather conditions, pests, and fire. This makes them a reliable option for long-term investments. The robust nature of metal structures ensures they can withstand natural disasters better than traditional buildings.
Cost-Effectiveness
One of the major advantages of metal office buildings is their cost-effectiveness. The materials are often less expensive compared to traditional construction materials. Additionally, the construction process is faster, reducing labor costs. The efficiency in construction also means less downtime for businesses.
Sustainability
Metal buildings are highly sustainable. Steel, for example, is 100% recyclable and can be reused without losing its properties. Moreover, the energy efficiency of metal buildings can be enhanced through proper insulation and the use of energy-efficient windows and doors, reducing the overall environmental impact.
Flexibility and Customization
Metal buildings offer great flexibility in design. They can be easily expanded or modified to accommodate changing business needs. The versatility of metal allows for innovative architectural designs, making it possible to create unique and modern office spaces.

Initial Planning and Conceptualization

Defining Your Requirements
Before diving into the design, it’s crucial to define the specific requirements of your office building. Consider factors such as the number of employees, the type of work being done, and any specific needs related to your industry. This will help in creating a design that supports productivity and meets operational needs.
Budgeting
Establish a clear budget for your project. This includes not only the cost of materials and construction but also any additional expenses such as permits, landscaping, and interior design. Having a detailed budget will help in making informed decisions throughout the design and construction process.
Site Selection
Choosing the right location is vital for the success of your metal office building. Consider factors such as accessibility, proximity to clients or suppliers, and local zoning regulations. The site should also have adequate space for future expansion if needed.

Design Considerations

Architectural Style
The architectural style of your metal office building should reflect your company’s brand and values. Whether you opt for a sleek, modern look or a more traditional design, metal buildings can be customized to achieve the desired aesthetic. Pay attention to elements such as the façade, roofing, and window styles.
Layout and Space Planning
Effective space planning is essential for creating a productive work environment. Consider the flow of movement within the building, the placement of workstations, meeting rooms, and common areas. Open-plan layouts are popular in modern office design, but it’s important to include spaces for private work and meetings.
Structural Design
Work with a structural engineer to ensure that your building’s design is not only aesthetically pleasing but also structurally sound. The engineer will take into account factors such as load-bearing capacities, wind resistance, and seismic activity to ensure the building’s safety and stability.
Insulation and Energy Efficiency
Proper insulation is crucial in metal buildings to maintain a comfortable indoor climate and reduce energy costs. Use high-quality insulation materials in the walls, roof, and floors. Additionally, consider energy-efficient windows and doors, and incorporate passive solar design principles to maximize natural light and heat.

Sustainability and Environmental Impact

Green Building Materials
Opt for environmentally friendly materials wherever possible. This includes recycled steel, low-VOC paints, and sustainable insulation options. Using green building materials not only reduces the environmental impact but can also improve indoor air quality and contribute to a healthier work environment.
Renewable Energy Integration
Consider integrating renewable energy sources such as solar panels or wind turbines into your building design. This can significantly reduce your reliance on traditional energy sources and lower your operating costs. Additionally, it demonstrates a commitment to sustainability, which can be a valuable asset for your company’s image.
Water Conservation
Incorporate water-saving features such as low-flow fixtures, rainwater harvesting systems, and efficient irrigation systems for landscaping. These measures can help reduce water consumption and contribute to overall sustainability goals.

Construction and Project Management

Choosing the Right Contractor
Selecting a reputable and experienced contractor is crucial for the success of your project. Look for contractors with experience in metal building construction and check their references and past projects. A good contractor will be able to provide valuable insights and help streamline the construction process.
Project Timeline
Develop a detailed project timeline that outlines each phase of construction, from site preparation to final inspections. This will help ensure that the project stays on track and within budget. Regularly review and update the timeline as needed to accommodate any changes or delays.
Quality Control
Implement strict quality control measures throughout the construction process. This includes regular site inspections, material testing, and adherence to building codes and standards. Ensuring high-quality construction will prevent future issues and prolong the lifespan of your building.

Interior Design and Finishing Touches

Ergonomic Workspaces
Design ergonomic workspaces that promote employee well-being and productivity. This includes comfortable furniture, adjustable workstations, and proper lighting. Consider incorporating standing desks, collaborative spaces, and quiet zones to cater to different work styles.
Aesthetic Appeal
The interior design should reflect your company’s brand and create an inviting atmosphere. Use a cohesive color scheme, modern finishes, and quality materials to enhance the overall look and feel of the space. Incorporate artwork, plants, and other decorative elements to add personality and warmth.
Technology Integration
Integrate modern technology to create a smart office environment. This includes high-speed internet, wireless connectivity, and smart lighting and HVAC systems. Additionally, consider implementing a building management system (BMS) to monitor and control various building functions for increased efficiency.

Maintenance and Long-Term Considerations

Regular Inspections
Schedule regular inspections to identify and address any maintenance issues promptly. This includes checking for signs of wear and tear, ensuring the integrity of the building’s structure, and maintaining the HVAC and electrical systems.
Upgrades and Modifications
As your business grows and evolves, your office building may need upgrades or modifications. Metal buildings are particularly well-suited for expansions and renovations due to their modular nature. Plan for future needs and ensure that any changes are seamlessly integrated into the existing structure.
Sustainability Practices
Continue to implement and improve sustainability practices over the life of the building. This includes maintaining energy-efficient systems, recycling programs, and promoting eco-friendly habits among employees. Regularly review and update your sustainability goals to keep pace with advancements in green technology.

Conclusion

Designing a metal office building is a multifaceted process that requires careful planning, innovative thinking, and attention to detail. By considering factors such as durability, cost-effectiveness, sustainability, and customization, you can create a workspace that not only meets your current needs but also adapts to future changes. With the right approach, your metal office building can become a modern, efficient, and inspiring environment for your business.

14th: Jud “Fabio” Birza (Nicaragua - Winner)

MOVIE STAR JUD \"FABIO\" BIRZA
u/SMC0629:
Fabio, my second favorite winner of the entire show, he’s just too much fun. He perfectly encapsulates the trainwreck that is Nicaragua, and is the best winner for it as well. He gets to the end by just being himself, a decent amount of luck, physical strength, and a tiny bit of strategy. I know there’s some who seem to think Fabio is brought down by this factor of the edit building him up to know what he was doing, apparently undermining everything before the endgame. If you ask me though, who’s to say he DIDN’T have a tiny strategic mind in there? It seemed perfectly reasonable and in character for me, and it only improved him for me. Love Fabio, so happy he made it this far.

u/DryBonesKing:
From the same editing program that watered down Mike Gabler from OTT weirdo to a CP-lite strategic player “hiding in plain sight”, we have his prototype - the OTT blond surfer-bro that the players literally changed his name from Jud to Fabio because of how he comes across that gets a watered down CP-lite strategic edit of “they don’t realize I’m actually really smart, y’all!” Quit being cowards CBS! Give us the Goofball Fabio winner edit! #LetFabioBeFuckingWeird
I stand by the Gabler-Fabio comparison, but despite how much I dislike how the CP-edit kills Gabler’s character potential, I think Nicaragua does somehow make it work with Fabio. I blame the cast itself; with people like NaOnka, Marty, Jimmy T, Jane, Shannon, Dan Lembo, and whatever the fuck a “Benry” is supposed to be, “Fabio” almost does come across sane in comparison. As such, he can get these confessionals about pretending to be dumb and it does almost work just because the people he is surrounded by just feel literally ripped from Loony Tunes.
But despite it kinda working here, I do think Fabio is hilarious when he’s just allowed to be this weirdo that no one takes seriously, that ultimatley ends up winning because he’s surrounded by two people who have truly pissed off the jury. He’s a fun character with a truly unique winner’s story, and ultimately, I just REALLY dig his vibe. I wish I had him Top 100. But I also just wish we got a full season with the “real” Fabio as opposed to the occasional cuts to CBS trying to water him down to his most strategically-presentable version. #LetFabioBeFuckingWeird #ReleaseTheFabioOTTWinnerEdit
Overall Rank – 115/821

u/Zanthosus:
While I’ve never been as big on Nicaragua as many in the rankdown circle, I still appreciate a lot of what the season does and represents. And I think that Fabio’s win is the perfect ending for the clusterfuck of a season that preceded it.
~
u/Tommyroxs45:
Fabio’s run on Nicaragua is simply iconic and is a great way for the season to end. Having this likable underdog beast his way to the end under all odds against him is so satisfying. I’m happy he made this endgame even if I personally don’t have him here.
u/Regnisyak1:
Fabio is cool. I have him probably lower than a lot of people comparatively, but he was a ray of sunshine on such a negative season, and his win coming out of nowhere was great. He played the surfer bro role correctly, and while I don’t think he necessarily had the greatest ability to lead a season, he is a necessary feature in making it thrive and giving it such a large cult following here. Glad he made it after a long gap.
Personal Rank: 77/821. 9/10.

Jud “Fabio” Birza (1st Place, Nicaragua)
I love Fabio. He’s easily one of my favorite winners of all time. Every time I reevaluate my winners rankings, Fabio at worst will be the third best winner for me. Plus, as an added bonus, he also stars in my favorite B movie of all time, My Stepbrother is a Vampire!?!, which I won on DVD (I’m not joking, who do you think got the screenshot of Fabio for this writeup?). I mentioned in my Colby 3.0 writeup how I consider Nicaragua the last true old school season of Survivor, and that’s because it feels like a big fuck you to strategy, and Fabio plays a huge role in it. Enough of simply stating my love for Fabio’s character, it's time to describe why he’s so great.
The first episode properly sets Fabio up as who he is as a character this season. He gets the first confessional of the season, talking about how dangerous it really is out there and how it's not like the zoo cause it's all real (the first hint of the winner for being the first confessional of the season). He then gets put on the young people tribe, which he says are his people. One of Fabio’s main characteristics gets shown right at the start, where he basically says that they could use a snorkel flipper to collect rainwater, and when Chase said Fabio looked like he would be good in the water, Fabio instantly gets a woodchip in his foot, making him rescind the comment. Shannon then has a confessional where he calls Fabio a dumb blonde, and it instantly cuts to Fabio getting pinched by a crab claw. He then starts calling Fabio his titular nickname…uh…Fabio. This quickly catches on in the tribe, and even at the first challenge where Jeff tries to talk to “Jud”, the tribe corrects him, saying that they only know Fabio. This is Fabio’s first characterization, that he’s a goofball that isn’t taken seriously. While that’s a big characterization, it's not the most important one. The important one is shown in his confessional responding to his new nickname. He comes off surprised that everyone is calling him Fabio, calling the guy a cheeseball, but then says that he doesn’t care what people are going to call him cause he’s going to win the million dollars (in the weirdest audio edit ever) so people can call him Fabio. This highlights his second characterization, and the most important one, he is aware of what other people think of him.
Of course, just because he’s aware of his status doesn’t necessarily mean he has great strategic capabilities. This is shown in the first La Flor vote, where it's looking to be between either Shannon and Brenda, and Fabio was voting for Brenda with Shannon’s. However, Shannon has a huge meltdown at tribal, which clearly would be bad to stick with and would be better to switch sides. However, Fabio ends up sticking with Shannon anyways, voting for Brenda and going “I guess this is the vote?”, which put him on the outs. This would normally be an issue, but since everyone sees him as a goofball, he’s not near the bottom of the pecking order. It also helps that La flor will win every immunity from here on out until the swap happens, and while not happy at first that a swap was happening, he happy with the end result, as he ends up in the majority with the OG La Flor members, although some La Flor members aren’t too happy to work with Fabio strategically. Luckily though, Fabio would successfully make it to merge, where his true game would begin.
I would usually just talk about what Fabio did throughout the merge, but I would rather highlight his interactions with key people from the merge, as they all highlight Fabio’s main characteristics to varying degrees and also help add to his story.
Alina
Alina and Fabio don’t interact too much, as Alina would spend most of her time with Kelly B and then gets swapped onto Espada when the tribe swap happens, separating her from Fabio. But when they return at the merge, Alina ends up getting targeted for her involvement with the missing food fiasco. When she tries to pitch to Fabio to keep her around, he just flat out tells her that people want her out cause she’s dangerous and people think she always has a hidden motive. This does reflect back to earlier in the game, when they were both at the bottom but no one was worried about Fabio and wanted Alina and Kelly B out first. This would carry over all the way over to that moment now. Fabio has more on the pulse in the game than people think as shown here, and he’s able to avoid it due to how he plays up the perception of him.
Marty
On paper, it makes no sense for Marty to vote for Fabio as the winner. How could the most strategic guy on Espada vote for the least strategic person in the game? However, the relationship they develop over time is what really shines. When Marty gets swapped onto La Flor, everyone from OG La Flor either wants him out, or to use him for strategic gain. Fabio is really the only guy from OG La Flor that has his back. Fabio tells Marty about Naonka getting the clue, and when OG La Flor wants to split the vote and get Marty out, Fabio fights for Marty to stay. Even though Marty does trick Fabio by claiming he was a chess grandmaster, he does warm up to Fabio. They even work together at the merge, although that ends up being short-lived as Marty is taken out
Naonka and Purple Kelly
I have to lump these two together since they both highlight the one issue with Fabio’s story. Unfortunately, since both of them quit, they both get slaughtered by the edit, which in turn ends up hurting Fabio’s story since they’re both key to it. With Naonka, she is Fabio’s biggest adversary. She finds his antics way more annoying than funny, and actively yells at him when he complains to her about something, and pretty much dislikes him all around. The feeling appears to be neutral while there on La Flor, but not all is what it seems. When merge comes around Fabio and Naonka reunite again, they actually hug and get along. Even if that ends up being short lived when Naonka steals food, but when she gets cornered and comes clean about it, Fabio is the only one to thank her for doing that. Eventually, all that kindness pays off when at the F9 reward, Naonka is the one to fill him in on the Brenda vote. When FTC comes around, Naonka, despite everything that they’ve been through, calls Fabio her hippy friend and asks about how seeing his Mom gave him the strength to keep going, and Fabio gives a heartfelt answer, telling her about how much he misses his Mom and that it was the fuel he needed to make it all the way to the end of the game. Despite their rocky relationship, Naonka ends up giving Fabio her vote to win.
Purple Kelly is another important aspect of Fabio’s story that unfortunately gets buried due to the assassination edit given to Purple Kelly. Everyone knows that Kelly was miserable due to being given very little clothes to keep her warm during Nicaragua’s monsoon season, which led to her quitting. The only real time it gets acknowledged is when Fabio mentions that now Purple Kelly can sleep when they win the tarp, which is barely heard because it happens the same time that Chase finds a hidden immunity idol clue in the tacklebox. But it's interesting that Fabio is the one to vocally acknowledge it, as he’s the one who’s most involved in it. It's never mentioned, but you do always see it. Multiple times throughout Nicaragua, you can see Kelly wearing Fabio’s yellow jacket. He allowed her to wear it sometimes when she was cold to help her stay warm. Just that kind of gesture along from Fabio helping her out the best he could, led to her voting for Fabio to win in the end.
Benry
I don’t have much to say about Fabio’s relationship with Benry, but there are two things I want to highlight from it. The first is during the Marty vote, where Benry says that the best plan is to lay low and play stupid, while Fabio says that he hated playing stupid but it was the smartest thing to do. Fast forward to the F7, and the vote is between Fabio and Benry. The main alliance of Chase, Sash, Holly, and Jane are deciding who should go between Fabio, who everyone on the jury loves and could win, or Benry, who could go on an immunity run to the end. While Fabio is in general clueless at the vote and is still “playing stupid”, Benry ends up playing really hard to get the vote onto Fabio, which freaks out Chase and leads to the alliance voting out Benry over Fabio. And guess who ends up going on an immunity run right after F6 and makes it to the end and wins?
Jane
At the first merge immunity, it's a double immunity where the last standing man and woman would win immunity. When it came down to the men, the last two guys standing were Fabio and Chase. Ultimately though, it would be Chase that drops first, giving Fabio immunity. The only person that Fabio really had to compete against was Jane. This is a great foreshadow to the end of Jane’s store as well as the continuation of Fabio’s. Both of their stories are kind of similar overall, both of them end up on the outs of their starting tribe, they get new life when the swap happens, they're both overall well liked, and they were both screwed over by Chase during the loved ones visit. Both of them had strong cases to win the game just with overall likability, but one of them would have to go to allow the other one to thrive, and when Fabio comes in clutch to win F6 immunity, the majority alliance decides to cut Jane as a threat, allowing Fabio to fully harness Jane’s power to get to the end.
Sash and Chase
Once again I’m going to lump these two together because they are the ones that end up sitting next to Fabio at the end. You have big strategy Sash and country boy Chase. On paper, it should be one of these two that should win the season instead of Fabio. They were both in control for most if not all of the game, and the only reason why Fabio was there was because he won a couple immunities at the end. But yet, Fabio is the one to clutch out the title of sole survivor. Why? In my opinion, it's because Fabio is always himself, so people see him as a genuine guy, while the other two come off as terrible or fake.
Sash's main game is strategy, doing whatever he needs to get ahead of the game and make it farther. Any bond he has with someone is only on a surface level which makes him come off as sleazy and slimy, while Fabio is always genuine with his feelings and relationships with people. No one highlights this better than Marty. Marty’s main relationships involving La Flor were mainly Fabio and Sash. While Fabio always liked Marty and gets to know Marty on a personal level, Sash only really talks to Marty for strategy and cons him out of his idol on the promise of keeping him around longer. And when Sash no longer needed to keep Marty around anymore, he burned him and voted him out. Everything Sash does comes off as slimy to everyone, even his allies, while Fabio remains pure and genuine.
With Chase, it's a bit of a different story. Chase wants to be the good guy, but gets caught up in the strategy, and keeps ending up being on both sides. He always gets flip floppy and wishy washy when it comes to voting someone out or for rewards, which ends up annoying people. It's not a problem at first, but it definitely is when he starts making promises to people that he can’t keep which upsets them more, hurting his image and makes people like him less. The biggest example to this is the loved ones visit where he promised to take Fanio on reward with him if he won. However, Chase ends up burning both Fabio and Jane, who expect Chase to pick her. This leads to both Fabio and Jane being upset, and even Fabio telling Jane about the promise Chase made, which also pissed off Dan who was there. Chase always wants to maintain being the good guy while he is playing the game but struggles because of his indecisions and breaking of promises, while Fabio is actually able to maintain that status all throughout.
This all pays off at FTC, where we finally get to see Fabio speak out against the two guys, talking about how he actually got to play the game that Chase wanted to play. He talks about how played hard by being himself and being an open book for everyone, and never backstabbed anyone in the game which Sash could never do and Chase wishes he could do. He laughs when Sash calls him a wingman, telling him to take a backseat and take some notes. He doesn’t even let jurors who put him down get in his way, as when Alina says that he wants to vote for a man to win, not a boy, Fabio said he deserved to win, and when Chase said that winning three immunities didn’t mean he outwit, outplay, or outlast hi, Fabio points out that that’s outplaying him and he chose to bring Chase to the end and then says that Sash didn’t outplay anyone. I know people usually say that Chase had the better FTC performance since he flipped votes to his side, but that doesn’t matter (and is also wrong) as Fabio will end up clenching a 5-4 victory in one of the best endings to a season I could ever ask for, and that’s awesome.

I got a check engine light for my 2020 330i, and I used an OBD2 scanner and got the P05B0 code, indicating an issue with the “Active Grill Air Shutter ‘B’ Position Sensor Minimum/Maximum Stop Performance”
The car has 28.5k miles on it and there are no issues shown through iDrive. The front grill shutters do appear to open fine.
As the original warranty had run out, I bought an extended warranty with Fidelity Warranty Services through the dealership, the Platinum Coverage. Will this issue be covered by the warranty? If not, how much is the repair expected to be? It doesnt seem to be a severe issue but Id rather get it fixed ASAP.
All help is appreciated!

Let's say there were a minister who served a congregation in Illinois about 5 years ago, then moved to Minnesota and became a minister of a new congregation there.
Then, five years later (present day), they receive communication from a former member of the church they worked for in Illinois. The person contacting them is a family member of a former employee of that church, and claims that their family member was actively covering up child abuse during their time at the church. That employee was fired (by that same minister) for not properly reporting an incidence of abuse, but this person is claiming that they also were actively complicit in hiding abuse that was happening in their own home during that same period of time.
The person goes on to say they worry for the former employee's grandchild, who is of toddler age and currently lives with the former employee in question. To compound the matter, that former employee is still working directly with children at a different congregation (all within the same religious affiliation) elsewhere in Illinois.
Would this minister be required to make some sort of report? If so, to whom would they need to make the report?
Thank you.
Edit: Corrected wording of detail

I'm currently working in a hospital's IT department under a "System Access" team as an analyst. The job duties are what I consider to be very simple, just requires some knowledge of knowing what certain basic things are and how to use them such as working with Active Directory, leveraging a Identity Governance tool to grant access, and understanding of a little bit of lots of different applications such as Epic. But there is no coding/programming involved. Over some time I've started to realize that the people in my team or in the company have been here for 7+ years and they rarely open positions. I've tried to bring up that I was interested in collaborating with the only app developer on the team or maybe even some form of automation (planning to learn on the fly since they were already looking to use UiPath for some tasks), but it just goes out the window, specially since most managers/directors might be retiring in the next couple of years they don't really care that much or want more work on their shoulders.
I thought it would more than likely be accepted given that I've already been able to do most of the "senior" level employees tasks since they're not interested in working outside of their oldschool techniques, and didn't even ask for a promotion or raise, but I guess not. So after 3 years and still being an "Associate" making 1/3 of what the rest of the team makes so I'm getting somewhat demotivated.
When I received this position I was in the process of completing my B.S. in Cybersecurity. I completed it last year and this year I began my M.S. in CS with a concentration in AI/ML this year. I realized near the end of my B.S. that I enjoyed programming more so I started working on The Odin Project to get more knowledge in J.S./NodeJS/DBs/HTML/CSS and eventually work on some personal projects as a hobby to build my skill, but the Masters program is pretty intensive and during my undergrad I didn't dig too deep into programming, more very basic/entry level coursework in C#/C++/Java/Python.
Reflecting on everything brought me some questions and I thought I'd reach out to see if someone can give some guidance.

1. Should I still try to pickup The Odin Project "bootcamp" for Fullstack JS/JSNode again? But instead do it very slowly since my Masters program is taking up most of the time? Or just focus solely on the course knowledge?
2. Seeing other threads, I'm assuming that it might not be the best time to transition to a SWE or SDP job? I see mixed comments but mostly negative about the field at the moment.
3. If I do plan on slowly transitioning to a different company for a job, are there any known positions/titles, or indicators to look into that might make the job/company seem stable? Not really in a good financial position with my current salary to get laid off after a couple of months. (making around 45k before taxes at the moment, and live in a high cost city, moving soon if a new job permits it because in healthcare remote is a bit difficult)
4. Should I be dedicating more time into leet code as it'll be for sure required if I were to transition? I roughly looked into it and realized I wasn't even able to answecomplete the easy ones.
5. Are city/government positions that involve AI/ML or even JS-related descriptions good to move to gain experience and knowledge while studying? If so, what are some recommended departments or agencies?

Overall, I do feel like if someone seems my history/resume it might be a bit all over the place given I'm looking to go from Cybersecurity to some Junior Developer position to then AI/ML? But I'm just thinking of the smoothest way to transition while also being able to have a stable job and be good financially.

I have a very strong angry part who can come out and tear someone’s face off (figuratively), but mostly she hides in the moment when justice needs to be served cause other parts fear further gaslighting. So, I see more of Angry part when I’m alone. Trouble is my angry part is so intense I have very high blood pressure (44f - active, 130lbs). I developed an autoimmune disease after a very traumatic event. So my angry part is fierce and exhausting and RUMINATION part keeps angry part well fuelled. I’ve tried taking to her, thanking her, listening to her. She chills in the moment. But she’s triggered just as frequently, just as intensely. Help.

For some context I’m a woman who’s not totally inclined to femininity nor masculinity. I have friends who wear makeup and don’t wear makeup and I don’t favor one above the other. I’m also not a native english speaker so I might butcher some grammar
Let me separate what I mean by conventional makeup vs unconventional makeup. Conventional makeup is the type of makeup that most women are wearing, for example natural, latina, baddie, douyin, and soft makeup. Unconventional makeup is the type of makeup that most women would NOT wear and only a small portion would wear. These women usually group together as a niche demographic and have makeup techniques that are niche to their demographic. For example, goth makeup and art makeup (making artwork above the eyes or drawing large abstract shapes or pictures on the cheeks).
The type of makeup I’m talking about is conventional makeup. The arguments I often hear most women say when defending makeup are a. Using it for authentic self-expression and b. To enhance their features. This is kind of conflicting to the whole activity of makeup because drawing eyeliner gives the illusion of having bigger eyes than their real eyes. Wearing mascara gives the illusion of having thicker lashes than their real lashes. Wearing lipstick gives the illusion of having plumpelightedarker color lips than their original. Their features aren’t enhanced, they become replaced by how the makeup looks on their faces. And instead of expressing their authentic selves, they’re hiding original features of their face. Wearing makeup will never give the ability to show their authentic selves and authentic face because it distorts their original face and features.
Here is where the term “authentic self” is debatable: its meaning. What do most women mean when they say “authentic selves”? Is it truly their authentic selves or the self/personality that they THINK they have? If it’s the latter, well, there’s no argument to be made here, because the very image that they’ve made about themselves is wrong. Like most people, men and women alike, they’re just living in delusion on how people come off to others and the self image that they’ve made about themselves.
Therefore my argument is that women who wear conventional makeup are honestly doing it to make their features look closer to what’s considered conventionally attractive, unless they genuinely have the wrong image of themselves (e.g. a woman uses the reason of authentic self-expression. She genuinely thinks she’s bold and confident while in reality she’s shy and timid.). Sigh I just wish more women are honest about this, there's no shame to wanting to be prettier

I just switched to a new motherboard and am carrying over the same CPU and SSD. I'm not able to boot into Windows, so am planning to create a backup and do a fresh Windows install with the new motherboard. Will I be able to use the same product code for this new install? Can I just restore from the backup without activating Windows again?
