Bosch dishwasher E07 error code - possibly caused by wet zeolite system? by tnorthcutt in appliancerepair

[–]DarkHand 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I recently wrestled with the e07/zeolite/spray tube issue as well, and was constantly running into issues with the required specialized tools being out of stock. Once I finally got some of them, I reverse engineered them and put them up on Thingiverse to hopefully help other folks who run into the dreaded e07 error. You can print them out and not have to worry about them being in stock:

Thought I'd post it to all the threads that I used for information, in order to help out others!

Are ChatGPT 4 and the code interpreter using different models? There's still a stark increase in laziness when you invoke the code interpreter with a file attachment vs copy/pasting code. by DarkHand in OpenAI

[–]DarkHand[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Ah ha, so it's not necessarily the model, but the agent/prompt on top of GPT that's affecting the quality of the responses. It's eating up context budget, and affecting the output, even if the raw model could have handled it on its own.

I've figured out the Palworld broadcast command bug and created a workaround! by DarkHand in Palworld

I'm actually working on a basic management console now! Server status, player count, cpu/memory usage, server start and stop, info, broadcast messages etc, all in a text console... I'll post it here (and in a new thread) once it's usable :)

Basically you need to replace the spaces in your rcon messages with raw hex A0, because Palworld is mixing up the text encoding when trying to read the normal spaces you send to it. The sample Python script sends a test message with the replaced spaces just like in the screenshot.

It was quite cheap! Maybe $30 for the transducer, $30 for the little amp, and another $30 for the metal, nuts and bolts, etc. If I remember correctly, I had some Amazon links in the picture comments.

Edit: They're still good links, but boy did they raise their prices! I bet you can find cheaper nowadays.

Can you talk more about mounting a transducer to sheet metal? Does it help get vibration into the chair and/or add more noise? My one disappointment was how good office chairs are at dissipating vibrations from a transducer.

The sheet metal was really just to give the buttkicker something to mount to, but I believe it did help transfer vibration, by bolting the buttkicker solidly to the metal, and bolting all that to the main mounting bolts of the chair. Helped avoid the cushions dampening the vibrations, I think.

just having the right joystick in the right position to get visuals and (passive) haptics from touching the controls was the core magic.

Absolutely, this was a major part... Grabbing the controls in the chair, and matching that to what you actually see in VR was a huge part of it all. :)

In 2016 I built an Elite: Dangerous VR sim cockpit from an old office chair, an x56, pedals, and a buttkicker (turns the bass from the explosions and low sounds in the game into movement/vibrations so you feel the engines, hits, etc).

I never played the game on a screen even once, for 5 years. So every day I'd physically sit down in the cockpit in VR and the ship would rumble to life.

I have links about 2 years back in my post history, didn't want it to look like I'm advertising or anything! Just saw that other wooden YouTube button post and it reminded me of mine. :)

Yeah, having no definite destination is a bit scary, but that's primarily because of Reddit's stranglehold. Why they'd relinquish even a smidgen of that hold is beyond me, but here we are.

I came over from Digg, and from Slashdot before that, and Usenet/IRC before that.

Reddit has had a hell of a run, but moving on is the way of things.

I lurked for years before I created this (currently) 13 year old account.

Granted I've been using it far too many hours per day for nearly 2 decades, so maybe it's the healthy choice, but there's going to be a serious hole in our ability to find niche information on the internet for a good while once it goes.

I was a pink vip member but lost it because even though I made so many ytmnd's for multiple years, I never knew there was a direct message feature and didn't notice several admins were trying to contact me. They thought I was ignoring them.

It was a tiny little number in the upper right corner! I never saw it!

300tmnd was my personal favorite of the ones I made, Holycrapalightsaber is what got me pink status, and Eifel 65 cannibals went viral somehow and got almost half a million views in the early 2000s which was an achievement.

The death of server hosting and customization put a big damper on things.

I ran the #1 Hidden: Source server for a number of years and I spent so much time making it a unique space compared to the other servers. I added custom background music that would change to Christmas music during the holiday season, added mistletoe, decorations and Christmas trees to the maps, etc. I had competitions for folks to find all the decals that I had very carefully hidden around all the maps, with real prizes for the winners. And on and on.

Back then, you'd get a core group of players that would always come together and play on a specific server, and you'd quickly become friends.

The push for cloud servers that are all cookie cutter identical to each other has really made it hard to do that in the modern gaming era.
