| 14:13 | Exaga> | jnettlet: u heard about the raspberry pi 4? |
| 18:34 | Humpelstilzchen> | I wonder if the i2c finally works in the rpi4 |
| 18:53 | Exaga> | Humpelstilzchen: never been an issue for me |
| 18:54 | Exaga> | the rpi4 has a new usb controller chip - VLI VL805 |
| 18:54 | Exaga> | might be ok but who cares :> |
| 18:55 | Exaga> | first thing i thought when i heard about the rpi4 was "why can't the shitheads at rpi trading ltd. be as transparent as solidrun?" |
| 18:56 | Exaga> | according to rpi trading ltd. (someone told me it was as late as february 2019) there weren't any plans to release any more revisions |
| 18:57 | Exaga> | apparently there is/was, especially when the rpi4 is released it has 2018 screen-printed on the damned circuit boards! |
| 18:57 | Exaga> | or at least the official pics of it does |
| 19:01 | Exaga> | seems that more than just the rpi firmware is closed-source :> |
| 19:03 | Humpelstilzchen> | Exaga: the rpi can't do clock stretching with i2c, it ends up reading random data |
| 19:05 | Exaga> | why on earth would you want to perform clock stretching on a rpi? |
| 19:06 | Exaga> | surely much more suitable devices exist |
| 19:06 | Humpelstilzchen> | Exaga: the rpi is obviously i2c master and the slave performs the clock stretching |
| 19:07 | Exaga> | rpi is just a toy. rpi is a poor man's hummingboard :> |
| 19:09 | Exaga> | i only use i2c for rtc so never had any issues |
| 19:14 | nemunaire> | except we can't buy hummingboard with 4GB of RAM... :( |
| 19:19 | Exaga> | hmmm |
| 19:20 | Exaga> | ddr4 @ 2400MHz too |
