Is black friday any good at HF?

I'm a new HF connoisseur and this will be the first black friday where I am an ITC member. Are there any crazy sales they have for black Friday? Would they just make it be another generic PLS for that month and call it a day?

Ender 3 V3 Ke dead?

I haven't used my ke in a few months ever since the y axis belt ripped. I replaced it and when i tried to power it on, I got nothing. The red switch lit up when i switched it to the on position but that was it. I didn't get any screen startup or fans starting like it normally does. I tried different power outlets, with and without extension cords, checked the fuse, checked the back 115v to 230v switch, and still nothing. I'm not sure what else I can try. Is my power supply dead?

My dad gave me his old rc truck, He said it needs a new battery. Would it be worth fixing? (Idk anything about rc cars)

It's pretty old from what I know, my dad got it as a gift from work as the company he worked for also had a racing team which ran a real life trophy truck identical to this one which is pretty neat. I've worked on cars, computers and other electronics, but nothing rc related but It seems fun if this model is worth fixing.

EDIT: It seems like everyone is agreeing that It's a great truck and I should fix it, but how would I go about that? What battery do you guys recommend and is there anything else I should do? Would I also need a new charger?

High Impressions/conversions from tiktok ads but 0 sales

I am trying to run my first ever ecom business and have started with a POD Shopifyh store mainly selling tshirts. I ran ads on tiktok for 24 hours with a $40 budget. After 24 hours of running my campaign (Aimed at sales conversions to my site); tiktok ended up spending around $52 and I got a total of 73k impressions leading to 1,521 conversions to my store. From those 1.5k ONLY 2 added to cart. Only one of those went through to checkout but did not follow through with it. Is this normal starting off or should I be worried?
My ads brought them straight to my product page, and it is a simple well built site with clear pricing (including free shipping). My only concern is that my shirt prices may be too high but they I priced them to match other competitors in the same niche.

[Acne] How to get rid of/treat this large reoccurring pimple on my nose?

I'm a guy and I don't really have any issues with acne anywhere on my face except for this weird shaped pimple on my nose. It comes and stays for 2-3 weeks then goes away. It comes back every few weeks. If i touch it hard, it's painful and makes it inflamed more and stay for longer. it's very annoying and uncomfortable to have.

I don't know much about skincare; My routine is just a facial cleanser and a moisturizer at night with a pimple patch over the nose. It seems to help reduce the pimple a little If I am consistent with the routine, but any accidental touch of my nose can make it become very inflamed again and making it stay longer. I have a very oily nose so that may be a factor of the issue.

How can I treat this? What products should i try? Should I go to the dermatologist because it's consistently coming back in the same spot?

Worth a visit to an endocrinologist?

I have been thinking of seeing an endocrinologist. Im a male and turned 20 this may. I am ~5’ 9”. My older sibling is 25 and 6’ 4”. my younger sibling is 17 and 6’ 0” already and still growing. My other younger sibling is in middle school and is about ~5' 7" and still growing. I am wondering If something has/was stunting my height growth. I also believe myself to be a late bloomer; I still have a relatively high pitched voice, little facial hair, and "babyface" features. I am often mistaken to be around 16-17 years old because of how young i still look. My father is around 5’ 6-7”, and my mother is about 6’ 9”. I am also considerably skinnier (~125 lbs) relative to my siblings which are all a solid average weight; not overweight, not underweight. Could I visit an endocrinologist to get an x ray and to do blood work to see if my growth plates are still open and see if maybe I can be prescribed anything to reach my "true height" and body growth potential? Would it be too late at my age?

Time attack as a first track day?

I've been wanting to take my 20' veloster r-spec to the track. Nearby me is a go kart track (Adam's Motorsport Park in Riverside CA), and they just weekly time attacks. Would it be a dumb idea to take my car here for my first ever track day? Would i be better off going to an open beginners track day at a normal car sized track?

Monster Digital horrible prints

Is anyone else having this issue with Monster Digital? I ordered 5 Gildan 5000 t shirt samples fr them, all basic black and white tees with simple designs on them, 3 of them being simple word phrases and two being simple graphics. All 5 of the prints were horribly uneven, none were centered on the shirt. Every print was at least at a 3 degree tilt instead of being even horizontally with the shirt. One was genuinely almost a 45 degree angle, and it was just 3 words. How am i supposed to have any trust in this provider that is so highly rated in their site to provide quality and accurate prints to my customers? What are some other more reliable providers you guys can recommend me?

White vs black helmets? Performance or just looks?

I've been looking at helmets to buy and I noticed that the majority of people I see at the track wear white helmets or light colored helmets. I assume it is because they deflect heat from the sun more, especially in the hot California sun, but is the difference that drastic? I personally wanted to get a black helmet so it had me wondering. Or do most people just prefer how white helmets look?

Why are taxes not being added to my checkouts?

I was about to open my store and start running ads but I did a test order on my phone and I noticed that there was no taxes being added to my total. I only bought one of my items which sold for $24.99 and that was the exact price I had to pay. I checked my US market settings and I have collect taxes and duties enabled so what is going on? I am located in California and am only selling to the US.

Question about engine swapping

I am looking to buy my first owner kart to race and was wondering if any chassis can take any engine? Like if i were to buy a chassis and throw an lo206 on it for a season, could I just swap the lo206 out with something else like a ka100 engine and be fine to race? I know there will obviously need to be some changes done like engine mounts and etc, but could i still use my same chassis? Would any issues arise from the regulations of leagues or anything? This might be a dumb question but a question nonetheless

Which C class formula series to run?

I just got promoted to C class in formula and I was stuck between the IndyNXT, F3, and SFL series. I was leaning more towards the NXT series but there are very little drivers in the timeslots compared to the other two series. This made me lean onto SFL but I am concerned about it being an open setup series (I don't know how to setup a car at all and do not want to buy setups) which would give a big advantage to people who just buy setups. Which series do you guys recommend I should run for my C license career?

Any karting shops around the Socal / Inland Empire area?

Im looking to go from rental karting to owner karting and want to get good gear but I want to go in person to a kart shop in order to try on different size and brands helmets and gear but I cant really seem to find any shop online in this area. The only one that I know of is the adams motorsports park shop in riverside but I'm not sure if they have a lot of diverse inventory for what I need.

Learning how to maintain a kart (lo206)

I'm looking into buying a kart and running an lo206 engine in it to race in local leagues for fun. I'm pretty mechanically inclined and know my way around road cars and trucks pretty well. I don't know anything about karts or small engines. How hard will the learning curve be to learn how to work on and maintain a kart? How do I go about learning the maintenance and adjustment things on the chassis side of the kart?
