Recently found an Hermes 3000 for $20 at a thrift store! Has some issues, learning how to fix it up. The right ribbon drive doesn’t move at all, any tips?

This is my first attempt at ever looking into fixing up a typewriter so please bear with me if the terminology isn’t correct 😅. The left drive moves great, the right one doesn’t move at all, there is zero give… I mean zero movement. I haven’t opened it up yet but as far as I can tell from the top view everything looks like it’s in good shape (no bent or broken or missing parts). Could it be as simple as lubricating the gear? Seems unlikely just based on how stuck it feels compared to the left, which spins freely.

[BF6] Whenever someone uses an IGLA against me, it connects every single time but when I use it, it goes straight into the flare every single time. Seems like everyone knows how to use this but me, any advice?

I pop flares, get hit, nosedive into the ground. It doesn’t matter if I’m painted or not, it hits me like 9/10 times. But when I try to hit a heli with the IGLA, it hits the flares 100% of the time. Please someone help me out here. How do I use this weapon? My sights are maintained on the target at all times, it doesn’t make a difference.

I’m guessing it’s not legit but I got these Gucci Run sneakers for free so no loss.

No insole but I believe these should have a serial number on the inside of shoe?

Am I tripping or are these prices expensive?

It’s probably the one of the most expensive goodwill in the country (Portland, OR area) that I’ve seen.

The person who has my old phone number is sending texts back to these people but I can’t see them, I can only see the texts they are receiving. It even added a contact photo and name of one of the people who are texting. It’s still connected to WiFi and has an Apple ID but obviously the person doesn’t have access to my wifi or Apple ID. I’ve already learned their name, how much they pay in rent, etc. This seems like a serious breach of privacy, how is this possible? Also, the phone still has a SIM card from Consumer Cellular, but I’m no longer with them and haven’t been for months. I’m planning on factory reseting phone and selling it soon so I’m more curious than anything about why this could be happening.

Thanks!
