layer shifting

I've been having issues with my Ender 3 V3 SE printer lately, and its starting to drive me mad because it will work fine with test prints, but then when I start my actual project it has more issues.

I was having feed issues last week, this week it's layer shift. I've read up on Layer shift online, it seems like the usual explanation is belts shifting, but if that were the case, I would think it would shift the same way each time. I've had two prints now that have done it, but they both shifted on different axes, and the test print I did in between the two didn't have any issue.

Printer not feeding, filament stuck in extruder

My Ender3 V3 SE recently stopped feeding. I replaced the hotend and it worked for half of a print before it stopped again. I tried retracting the filament and it will not come out, it is stuck fast in the extruder. I tried pulling it out when the printer said to remove it during retraction and it wouldn't budge. In fact I pulled on it hard enough that the PLA filament snapped. How do I get this out without having to replace the hotend again?

Mission 8A scouting changes

Did they change the way the mission to scout the landing beaches worked? I'm having trouble finding the southern Silkworm battery.

Torpedo tube stuck on selecting launcher

On the Run Silent, Run Deep mission I keep having this issue where it will only use 3 of the tubes at once. If I try to fire another one, it will get stuck, either on the Aligning Launcher or Selecting Launcher step. Even if you cease fire, that tube will now be useless for the rest of the mission.

Also, I'm having trouble with the submarine not following commands. If it has fired anything with wire guidance, the sub won't accept any course change at all. It will also randomly start going at flank speed when ordered to ahead one-third, and occasionally surface when I tell it to change depth, even if I order it to go deep. It also occasionally fires a TASM or Harpoon when I tell it to fire a torpedo after changing the speed or depth setting on the torpedoes.

Task Force Builder not available

I’m struggling with the pacific campaign. Is the task force builder even working? I’ve only been able to use it a couple of times in this campaign so far, now like 6-8 missions in, and I’m running out of ships. I’ve only had my flagship cruiser available for the last 4 missions, even though I have lots of points to spend on more ships.

Also, it needs a way to strategically retreat if you can’t beat a battle with what assets you have available.

Police activity near Walker Elementary

Anyone know what was going on today around noon?

We happened to drive by the school and couldn’t help but notice that there were Beaverton Police and County Sheriff cars on every corner.

I can only cast to my TCL TV for 20 seconds

The built in chrome cast worked fine for a while, but all of a sudden, for the last few weeks, it has only allowed me to watch 20 seconds of a cast at a time. Then the cast either loops or goes to a grey screen that says “[name of app I’m trying to cast from] reciever.”

Sometimes I can’t even get that far, it just goes straight to the receiver screen.

Help with Scansat BTDT scanner

I landed near an anomaly, but the scanner says I am too far above the scanner altitude to take the scan. (the scan alt must be between 0-2km, I landed at an elevation of 2050 meters.) How am I supposed to use this thing? I'm in the floor of a crater, there isn't another 50 meters of elevation near me.

Virpil lead time US

I’m looking at buying a pair of pedals, I am leaning towards Virpil, but I know they tend to have a long back order. What does their current back order time look like?

If Virpil is taking a long time, my alternative in the same price range is one from Winctrl, but I’d rather go virpil.

No, I do not want VKB. I like having toe brakes and you aren’t going to convince me otherwise, so don’t even try.

Hyperspace Mountain

We’re just starting out planning our next trip in about a year, and one of the things on our list to experience is Hyperspace Mountain. From googling I’ve been able to find that the overlay runs from late April through early June, but I can’t find anything more specific than that.

I’d just hate to buy the tickets and everything six months in advance only to find that Space Mountain is closed that week to install the overlay. After all, the refurbishment calendar is only posted six weeks in advance.

I know that Hyperspace Mountain is usually tied to May the Fourth (which is a Tuesday next year) but does it typically open the week before? That weekend? I don’t know.

I don’t think we want to go on the fourth itself, because I figure that the park would probably be crowded. That following Sunday is Mother’s Day, so we probably will to be home for that, and I’ve heard that the later we get into May, the more likely it will be that we’ll be there on a Grad night, when it will probably be crowded.

That leaves us with relatively few options for a three day trip, so any more info on the overlay would be helpful.

Roomba is not being emptied by base station.

My Roomba 105 isn’t being emptied by the base station. It makes the big vacuum noise and says that it is emptying, but the dust bin on the Roomba just keeps filling up until the Roomba can’t pick anything up anymore and I have to manually empty it.

Are Spira reloadable?

I got a spira on my last trip to Batuu, to pay at Savi's, so I was wondering is the coin/card was reloadable so I could use it on my next trip, or should I just plan on buying another?

So, I’m looking at purchasing an air fryer, but I have a small kitchen, so I’m considering one of those toaster oven combo fryers in order to save space.

How do those compare? Are they as good as the drawer style ones? Are they still good toasters?
