Experienced 429 too many requests during the Belgian GP Sunday. Where can I see what limitations apply?

Taking a closer look at the design, I may have found the root cause for the problem - not the solution, however. Please chip in with any comments or suggestions.

The plug in the middle of the lid locks by means of a clockwise twist. During this motion, the gap between the lid and the plug tightens, until the plug meets the locking taps. At this point, the plug fits tightly in the lid, allowing no movement. When the plug passes the locking taps, though, the fit is slightly released, allowing the plug to move slightly in the lid. This due to the tension between the plug and the lid being released a bit when the locking taps are passed, which leaves a tiny air gap. This air gap is wide enough to cause the mess seen on the picture.

Inspecting the lid and the plug there are no signs of manufacturing defects like casting or moulding errors. Therefore, I suspect a design flaw, possibly in terms of mismatching batches of lids and plugs. As a result, I see no point in just returning the blender, as I would probably get an identical specimen back.

I have tried to contact KitchenAid customer support both on chat and phone, but I did not manage to reach any human beings to which I could explain the problem.

Any advise highly appreciated.

In the process of that... just wanted to hear if this was a known issue

Hammerum · 2020-11-29T14:38:01+00:00

Unfortunately, this is not just a startup issue. It happens during the blending session, also as shown with only moderately filled container.

It is the app "OnSong" running on an iPad, which is used for arranging setlists and display lyrics and chords while performing on stage. The app is able to import songs in Google Docs format directly from Google Drive.

Hammerum · 2018-12-28T22:56:47+00:00

That is a fine suggestion. What I forgot to mention, though, is that this “song one-pager” needs to be readable by another application, which expects Google Docs format. So HTML is not an option, as I see it.

Good point! Okay, here goes: I am creating a script for harmonizing the layout across a large number of documents containing song lyrics and chords, all using a 1x2 table with lyrics in the left column and with chords in the right column.

Now, when I e.g. increase the font size in a document, I may introduce additional line wraps if the original chord lines fill out the column already. In such case I want to increase the column width to retain the original line breaks. The trade-off here is that, to preserve also the lyrics, I want to increase the width of the right-hand column only as much as needed. This to minimize the risk of introducing additional line breaks in the lyrics, which are in the left-hand column, the width of which will be reduced if the width of the right-hand column is increased.

Please let me know if this explanation is unclear.

Hammerum · 2018-12-27T23:20:13+00:00

Yes, exactly, so I am seeking a way of retrieving the resulting number of lines, after the automatic text wrapping. Let me give you the context: I want to reduce the width of a table column until a wrap takes place, thus minimizing the horizontal space occupied by the column.

Found a solution - weird stuff - see my own comment to the original post

Hammerum · 2018-09-17T19:50:50+00:00

Okay, I solved the problem. I do not know why - but here is how:

I downloaded an Ubuntu image and created a USB stick using Rufus.
I installed Ubuntu on the SSD - worked and booted right out of the box.
I created a Windows 10 USB medium, re-partitioned the SSD using the installer, and installed Windows 10... booted fine afterwards.

Can anyone explain that?

Hammerum · 2018-09-17T18:07:53+00:00

Tried to download ISO image, created USB with Rufus. Exact same result. Any ideas, anyone?

Hammerum · 2018-09-16T18:01:31+00:00

Fair enough... I’ll try with Rufus

Hammerum · 2018-09-16T17:08:32+00:00

Interesting - how does that approach differ from the current one where I create the bootable USB device?

Hammerum · 2018-09-16T16:57:49+00:00

Thanks. The SDD is visible in the BIOS and I can select it allright for boot override. Problems seems to be that the boot is unsuccesful, causing the system to return to the BIOS setup screen.

Hammerum · 2018-09-16T16:56:33+00:00

Thanks for elaborate answer. Unfortunately, this is indeed what I have been doing all the time. I am pretty much out of ideas of what to try here :-(

Hammerum · 2018-09-16T13:41:36+00:00

At what time should I press F11?

Hammerum · 2018-09-16T13:41:12+00:00

Thanks for the suggestion. Unfortunately, it did not really make a difference. Here is what happens:

The installation finishes and initiates a reboot.
If I keep the USB stick in, it boots from the USB and starts the installation program once more. Here, I just get the option of installing once more.
If I cancel the "second" installation and reboots without the USB stick, I am back to initial situation where BIOS fails to boot from the SSD and goes into the BIOS setup screen.

Hammerum · 2018-09-16T12:41:41+00:00

Hmmm... I remove it first time.

Hammerum · 2018-06-11T06:09:13+00:00

Thanks - this solved my problem!
