What my whole life feels like (programming.dev)

I ordered a MiniTools test clip to start experimenting with flashing EEPROMs. There was no information on the retailer's website regarding the width of the pins. This is what I got:

I asked MiniTools if they have any solution to this. They said "no". I then realized that this clip was probably meant for soldering. Which I haven't had the energy to learn yet.

I ended up buying the expensive Pomodo one.

The flashing went well.

Well, now that I have the Pomodo one I'll let this one go. But this did teach me something, so thanks. :D
