Floridian here. My mom currently has Citizenship Insurance. Her rates will increase by about 11.5% by the end of the year.

When I was younger, gaming was all I did as it was my only hobby and I didn't have many friends. I'd play the same 5-6 games since my catalog was small and my folk weren't keen to buy more. I didn't care much about graphics, performance, or length. I was also more of a completionist, searched for collectables, completed challenges and time trials, and completed side quests. Nowadays, I have a larger gaming library. I own hundreds of games on Steam, but I've hardly played a handful of them. Over time I've realized that I play games for killing time more than anything else. I've become more conscious of how I'm spending my free time and now I spend my free time doing other things.

Sorry for the confusion on the first response. I mixed up different posts. From the list, I'd say Digital Storm, Falcon Northwest, and System 76 offer the best build quality, fit, and finish.

Your actions, whether good or bad, will eventually affect you. Luck, which is defined as the factors that are beyond your control, such as genetics, family upbringing, and place of birth, is a major determining factor in life.

It's similar to how some people don't put their cart into a cart corral after loading their groceries even though the corral is nearby. I just boil it down to laziness and apathy at that point.

I live with my folks in a gated community. There's still dog poop on the sidewalks and in the grass even though there are designated dog poop disposal stations with bags and bins all across the community.

Best: Casual work environment, Monday-Friday work schedule, Day shift

Worst: Small businesses shenanigans and problems like lack of health insurance and occasional late paychecks to name a few. The workplace is dysfunctional. There are very little safety standards. There is a complete and utter inventory mismanagement problem. There are no standardized procedures, especially for training. There is difficulty in hiring new and retaining new employees. The long time employees are leaving due to retirement, health issues, or just utter frustration and dissatisfaction, and they're taking all of their knowledge and experience with them.

Some long-timers recently quit, including the business owner's son who's also the person who hired me. They quit because they were doing the jobs of multiple people and having more responsibilities and job duties tacked on to them. Even the IT guy is trying to fix the inventory situation at the off-site warehouse even though the business owner said he was looking to hire an inventory specialist.

I sit down.

I'm never getting another HP Omen laptop, custom builds are the way to go. Digital Storm, System 76, AVA Direct, Falcon Northwest, and Maingear offer a variety of custom build options for laptops, desktops, and all-in-ones(AVA Direct).

Yes, this is one of few social media platforms that I interact in.

I do hope to stay, but if I were to leave, I'd just stop using social media as a whole or use it very seldomly.

I just looked it up. There sure were. Florida tornadoes damage homes, businesses and cars on both coasts

Florida, US. We're facing multiple crises at once; an affordability crisis, an environmental crisis, and a political crisis. Homeowners insurance rates are going up with many companies leaving the state. Car insurance rates are increasing. Rent prices, housing prices, and mortgage rates are increasing. Our state is facing multiple environmental issues such as deforestation, pollution, and invasive species. Climate change will greatly impact our state, but our governor thinks it's woke.

Fellow Floridian here. I appreciate what I've learned in school, but it feels like they were preparing us for an ideal world that never existed. Things are especially bleak here in Florida with the affordability crisis, the environmental crisis, and the political crisis.

Same. I've been struggling with math ever since elementary school. I've flunked algebra in middle school and high school. Geometry was even worse for me.

Thank you.

My hair for example.

It's indeed true. African populations have the highest levels of genetic variation among all humans. Studies of these populations are used to understand demographic changes in Africa and to identify disease-related genes (e.g., APOL1).
