I'm working on a cosplay project with some LEDs. Mostly just to get a basic idea of how to work with them, I've followed the tutorial I found at https://randomnerdtutorials.com/guide-for-ws2812b-addressable-rgb-led-strip-with-arduino/ to hook up a strip of 9 LEDs to my Uno R3. However, when I try to actually run anything, I can only successfully address the first LED; when, for example, I execute the below code, the first LED flashes through red, green, and blue, then the second one goes green, the first one switches to white, and the second switches to red.

#include "FastLED.h"
#define NUM_LEDS 9
#define DATA_PIN 5
CRGB leds[NUM_LEDS];
void setup() {

So, I recently got a neptune 3 plus because I was frustrated with some serious design issues with my old printer, and wanted something with a bigger print bed. The first few things I printed for calibration came out well, but the first time I tried to print something of a decent size, the GFCI on the outlet it was connected to tripped after about three hours. So I reset it, plugged the printer into a different outlet, and tripped that outlet's GFCI. So third time, I disconnected the LED strip, since it was a little questionable-looking in its install, and also the filament runout sensor, just to eliminate anything not required for it to function. Still no dice.

At this point, I'm t

So, I moved to the area a few months ago, and my desktop is really due for an upgrade, now that my wallet has (mostly) recovered. Was wondering if anyone had any recommendations on where to get parts; only places I could find googling were Best Buy and Office Depot, and I prefer to not shop at either of those, if I can avoid it.

Is there any way to get the current PID values for a select mini v2? As part of another unsuccessful attempt at printing PETG, I did a PID autotune, after which, my hotend has started fluctuating in a +/- 5C range around the target temperature, in a very consistent pattern. It's continued doing this through multiple autotunes since, suggesting to me that it's either storing the values incorrectly or failing to save the updated values, but I'd like to be able to verify that.

I've recently found myself craving a phosphate, and would rather not wait until the next time I visit my family to indulge myself. I haven't been having much luck finding somewhere to get one, though, since all the usual suspects around here seem to be taken over by big chains which either don't run a soda fountain at all, or just use a postmix machine and Coke or Pepsi syrups.
So, I turn to y'all: if you have any recommendations on where I can find my favorite childhood treat around here, I'd greatly appreciate them!

Is he there to keep some race of mushroom people from attacking the world, or something? And while we're at it, what does Fungmourne hunger for? Rotten wood? Dead plant matter? The nutrients of the living?
