I mean, it’s not like OpenAI researchers aren’t just sitting there and watching it as it’s happening.

Half this shit sounds so contrived. They set up all the tools, libraries, prompts and then hit start and record.

They fire off a bunch of agents, watches where it falls apart, tweak some code and do it again.

They’re no different than a group of script kiddies on automatic trying to break into shit.

Whoopty fuck.

Fuckin trees moving in. Taking our jobs. They’re not even native species.

How inspiring; after seeing this I drew my dick out of my pants.

This is only the tip of the iceberg.

In a few years all pics, movies, music, books, news, anything and anyone you don’t see in person will be completely indistinguishable from AI. And most of it will be.

You won’t even know if the Senator’s face on your tv screen belongs to a real person.

The new front on the “war” for/on your minds will open. A culmination of all physical, informational, cultural, economic, narrative, and digital reality control systems will converge.

Even more so than now, people will have no choice but to embrace whatever schema of reality they can access because there will be no way to discern real truth from the manufactured.

Paranoia will eventually give way to a rather natural “double think” envisioned by Orwell. Tropey but nevertheless prophetic.

I, for one, welcome our mossy, undulating, velvety overlords.

That’s great!

Sorry for blowing up your thread but as for repairing it, might not hurt to draw up a schematic based on the board and try to ascertain exactly what the resistor is doing and why it is in the range it is in.

If it were me, I would separate out the pressure signaling system and see on which side the anomaly occurs. If you provide a solid signal and it still oscillates, the problem is probably in the main board. On the other hand, if a solid signal produces a one-off effect, the issue is in the pressure sensing module. Something is causing it to oscillate.

Personally? No. Mainly because while I have had to ID and work with resistors at work a few times, I am a hobbyist, and I haven’t worked on anything older than the 90s.

Again, from an amateur perspective, the color codes we’re familiar with wasn’t globally adopted until 1969. We don’t know where or when this resistor was made. It even looks different from the others. Considering that the reading is very close to one of the interpretations you have from the coding, I would guess it’s non standard but close and probably within the intended spec. It could very well be just the manufacturer’s coding, not our standard. Again, grain of salt, etc.

But check this out (third heading down):

Color Code Exceptions

The color coded resistors are inserted in circuit boards, and the PCB assembly manufacturing is finished by thru-hole pin soldering.

Reliability band: 

Resistors that are produced according to military specifications, sometimes include an extra band to indicate reliability. This is specified in failure rate (%) per 1000 hours of service. This is rarely used in commercial electronics. Most often the reliability band can be found on four band resistors. More information about the reliability can be found in the US military handbook MIL-HDBK-199.

Single black band or zero-ohm resistor:

A resistor with a single black band is called a zero-ohm resistor. Principally, it is used as a wire link that functions to connect traces on a printed circuit board (PCB). Using the resistor package allows the same automated pick-and-place machines to place the components on a circuit board.

5 band resistor with a 4th band of gold or silver: 

Five band resistors with a fourth band of gold or silver form an exception and are used on specialized and older resistors. The first two bands represent the significant digits, the 3rd is the multiplication factor, the 4th is the tolerance, and the 5th is the temperature coefficient (ppm/˚C).

Deviating colors: 

For high voltage resistors, the colors gold and silver are often replaced with yellow and gray. This is to prevent having metal particles in the coating.

If I had to guess, 151 with silver being the tolerance range and blue the temperature coefficient.

Yeah, like every day when I drag my ass out of bed to go to work, look around and think “this is a bunch of bullshit”

I don’t know if I can handle another one

Arr, it be elementary, mate: Get piss drunk and ya float yer dingy deep into the Bearded Clam Bay an’ with one squinty eye shot, unload a string o’ pearls right into the kraken’s maw. Now dance a jig and take a swig for the mistress of the sea.

Then hoist those sails right quick, lads, unless you want some little scabby bastards grubbin up all yer gold.

Heave away, boys!
