Anyone else's streak completely screwed up in the app right now?

I've got a 1400+ day streak and while everything is showing gold in the archives, I'm getting random streak numbers on all my puzzles ranging from 0 to 200 and most of them are reset as if I've never tried them. Showed 206 after finishing the Saturday just now and in my stats it's apparently 7. I've emailed NYT about it a couple days ago, but no response. Trying to decide if it's a reinstall the app situation or if it's more widespread?

Little rifles, big bullets

1898 Krag Saddle Ring Carbine

1921 Berthier Mle M16 Carbine

1946 No5 Mk1 Jungle Carbine

1947 and 1944 M44 Carbines

The Krag is a pretty pleasant shooter. The other 4 are fire breathing recoil monsters and I love all of them.

Pfitz half marathon long run with LT finish

Currently in week 3 of a modified pfitz half plan that'll peak at 80mpw. Training to take a shot at a sub 1:18 this August. Today was the first long run with an LT finish and it felt pretty good. Doing all my training at 5,000ft, so I should be able to count on 10s or so on race day, but I'm not factoring that into my training paces. Last two were 5:57 and 5:56, so I think I'm right on track.

Old cast iron pipes in house. Are these fixable with a hydrojet/CIPP?

Had my older sewer pipes (1972) scoped and while the section under the yard was fine, the section under the house was showing some corrosion. Obviously, I'd love to avoid a major replacement if we can do an in place repair, but the guy who scoped it was unsure if these would be a candidate for hydrojet/CIPP so I figured I'd ask for opinions here before having another plumber come look at it.

Anyone else catch a mini tornado on the west side this afternoon?

My four burner grill got picked up and thrown across the backyard a little before 3pm. 5 years it's been there and it's never moved and today it got thrown 6 or 7 feet. Wind was mostly calm before and afterwards.

Late War German Proofed Hi Power

Just picked this guy up today. I've had a Hi Power shaped hole in the collection for too long, so I'm psyched to fill it! Seems to be in great shape, but I have no idea what the markings on the bottom of the grip might mean, so if anyone can illuminate, I'm curious!

Storage in hot, dry conditions

Long story short, my house flooded due to a busted water line and I've currently got dehumidifiers cranking out 100+ degree air throughout the place. As of right now, it's 85F and about 25% humidity where my collection is stored, and that's the coolest part of the house. I know that's pretty far off from ideal, but I'm assuming wood damage occurs at much longer time frames.

Is there even the slightest bit of concern about storage conditions when we're talking about a span of a week and change? I'm probably overthinking things, but they weren't damaged in the flooding, thankfully, and I really don't want to mess anything up while repairs are being done.

Put together a quick video to demystify some of the lore around the Ljungman action. I see a lot of comments about making sure it's on safe before you load it and I wanted to address why that's not necessary, while explaining a little about how it works.
