00:00:11 <Nothing\> actually i think i already know the answer, sort of
00:00:47 <Nothing\> but anyway, i have this devboard for an 8052 variant that came with absolutely no documentation and near as i can tell, HAS no documentation
00:01:22 <Nothing\> so, i've been having a time just figuring out how to write programs to it. I know it's ROM, so it's not as simple as just uploading a program like an arduino
00:02:13 <Nothing\> i can't figure out how to read or write anything to the STC chip it came with, but i happen to have an Atmel variety which is compatible with my EEPROM reader/writer
00:02:42 <Nothing\> so, it just occured to me, I could write a program, convert to binary instructions and just upload that with the eeprom tool
00:03:30 <Nothing\> although i still know nothing about the pinout, like what in/outputs are connected to what pins
00:03:57 <Nothing\> glad i only paid $5 for it. Even though it's freaking $90 on amazon LOL
00:04:39 <Nothing\> i want to change my attention to the msp430, though
00:05:29 <Nothing\> i discovered a REAL hacking game that actually uses real assembly for the 430 to hack electronic locks and what not
00:05:40 <Nothing\> using real debugging tools, break points, stuff like that
00:05:59 <Nothing\> not those lame hacking games that was just a gui ilke what you'd see in a movie
00:06:13 <Nothing\> oh hey, K
00:06:43 <Nothing\> my arm's well enough that i can get by without a sling for several hours at a time
00:07:14 <K> oh neat
00:08:51 <Nothing\> yup, the incision's all healed up too. Or at least it's covered over with skin that there's no infection risk anymore. So I don't have to wear these damn bandages that are the size of a hygienic pad and literally smell like duct tape because i swear they use the same adhesive
00:09:04 <Nothing\> i mean, they're both 3M products, so it stands to reason they'd use the same adhesive
00:11:57 <Nothing\> https://i.ibb.co/jPMJRsX2/20260623-132102.jpg
00:12:14 <Nothing\> dude used so many staples it looks like 3 incisions
00:12:35 <Nothing\> it doesn't exactly look straight, either for some reason
00:12:52 <Nothing\> like it's all wobbly
00:13:04 <K> well, you are not a roboto
00:13:25 <Nothing\> being on the spectrum, i honestly feel like i am some days
00:14:14 <Nothing\> it's weird, there's this dent under the incisiion you can't really see here, but it's not on the other side
00:14:45 <Nothing\> ahh there's the sleepiness
00:15:03 <Nothing\> kinda hard to sleep a full night when i'm waking up literally every 30 minutes to pee
00:15:38 <Nothing\> there were times where i'd have to get up to pee before i even managed to fall back asleep

21:49:29 <MrMobodies> I was told last night I might not be able to setup tomorrow
21:49:53 <MrMobodies> and to be seen bringing in the stuff for the party today
21:50:16 <MrMobodies> because it is a surprise and they must not know about it
21:50:30 <MrMobodies> if I know this I would have brought it in days ago
21:50:42 <MrMobodies> I hate surprise parties
21:51:11 <MrMobodies> can't be seen setting up a disco because those expecting it might be there
