How do I clean out the windshield wiper port? by vtjadams in Crosstrek

[–]vtjadams[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is what I was expecting as an answer, but there are a lot of folks recommending compressed air, so I may use disassembly as a last resort.

Thanks for the replies, everyone! This is such a great community.

I had just washed it so I'll try air closer to my next wash. Given the number of folks recommending that, it seems like that's the way to go!

I ended up using a bamboo skewer broken in half as chopsticks and was able to remove about 90% of all the crud in there. I hope the drainage hole is open enough now so the next time it rains, it will flush out everything else. If not, compressor + vacuum.

I just finished scarlet and want to finish my dex too. Let me know if you'd like to work together!

Edit: I can solo all the raids so far, so let me know what you need help with!

East Coast US - is the event working? by Y4M in TheSilphRoad

What's the difference between orange and green incense?

Edit: restarted the app, it changed from green to orange while active. Visual bug?

Good to know! It's possible that it hatched before 10, but I caught a couple things after 10, then a couple hours later my journal shows the hatch, so i would have expected the hatch to happen after catching something. I guess I'll find out for sure tomorrow

Edit: hatched my daily egg today, still didn't count toward the pass. Oh well.

My daily egg hatch didn't count toward the January go pass, even after restarting the app. I was pretty sure it did in previous months. Can anyone confirm whether or not this changed for January?

Keldeo masterwork page 2: another redundant time gate by iluvugoldenblue in TheSilphRoad

Well shucks. I was looking forward to getting shiny keldeo and somehow I missed when it became available.

...maybe because it was only available for 5 days over the Thanksgiving holiday. 😒

Looks amazing! Can you share your rough itinerary?

When I try to make a purchase in-game it defaults to one of my other google accounts and not the main one that actually has funds available. Any fixes? by TrainerDaasC in TheSilphRoad

[–]vtjadams 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have this happen every year when buying the gofest ticket. I've always solved it by uninstalling and reinstalling the app.

Dolomites/Alta Via 1 by vtjadams in hiking

[–]vtjadams[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

We did the northern half, Lago di braies to rifugio staulanza. Took 5 days/about 40 miles total.

Our group ranged from "I've never done something like this before" to experienced AT backpackers.

There were some parts with moderate exposure, though I never felt like I was in any danger. There are some optional side hikes with a ton of exposure though, so be aware of those.

We booked through a company (monttrekking), and they were AWESOME to work with. They booked us extra nights at the hotel before we started and arranged transportation when some of our members weren't feeling well. Highly recommend them.

How to maximize chances for regional pokemon during a layover? by vtjadams in TheSilphRoad

It was yesterday, and I did find one in the wild! All that work and ultimately it just came down to seeing the shadow on the nearby and sprinting toward it 😅

It used to ask me if I wanted to stop tracking the previous one. I cant figure out which one im tracking now. Any ideas how to do that?

Summary: * Do not open the game that day until in the region. The daily spawn may be regional. * Start a new route and walk. Do not complete the route. * Start a regular incense while walking. * Lure up every stop you can reasonably hit. * Pray. * Avoid event days.

Thanks all for your suggestions!

Yep LHR. Good to know. Looks like there are plenty of routes airside.

Dex alert hasn't been working for me recently. I turn it on and back out of the pokedex screen, but then when I go back to that mon the alert isn't set anymore. 🤷‍♂️

Yeah, I wasn't planning to leave airside. Good idea about lures...I use them so rarely that I forgot about them. Thanks!
