<p>so, i used to think that tone markers¹ are just a niche autistic thing. but then i realized that if i mark sentences i _really_ don&#39;t want to get responses to with appropriate tone markers, i may be able to preemptively fend off replies i want to avoid! for example:</p><p>estradiol is a neurotransmitter in the hippocampus and yet men are still able to remember shit. curious /j /hyp</p><p>¹ <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tone_indicator" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tone_ind</span><span class="invisible">icator</span></a></p>

<p>Because there&#39;s no device address, the I2C address is just the word address (here &quot;word&quot; is 8-bits, so it&#39;s the address of a byte). So this is all you need to read the whole thing from `glasgow repl i2c-initiator`:</p><p>(await iface.read(0, 128)).tobytes()</p><p>Dump that to a file and you get:</p>

<p>Couldn’t get the dupont thingys to connect to the pins so I put it in a breadboard.</p>

<p>So a 24C11 is not compatible with a 24C01. The 24C01 has a device address byte before the word address, allowing multiple devices or larger devices. The 24C11 just has a 7-bit word address, then the R/W bit. This confusion may have corrupted the device when trying to read it the wrong way with my TL866. 😅</p><p>Anyway, neither the TL866 nor the GQ-4x4 support the 24C11 so it&#39;s go go gadget <a href="https://awesome.garden/tags/GlasgowInterfaceExplorer" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>GlasgowInterfaceExplorer</span></a> time.</p>

<p>not quite <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/caturday" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>caturday</span></a> yet but I have this tired girl</p>

<p>Eh, good ‘nuff.</p>

Those people will do anything except finish developing software before launch</p>

<p>I’ve got this little EEPROM that came out of an arcade token widget. It’s I2C with the usual pinout, but no address or write protect pin. It’s only 128 bytes. It’s been sitting on my bench for ages now. Let’s unfuck this solder junk and see what’s in it.</p>
