@noiob Is this a Waveshare model? Because that's weird.

Goldkin @Goldkin@awoo.space

@noiob Ah. I wonder how different it is from the generic HATs I have. (Larger ones have standoffs secured by washers.)

@noiob That is... ... ... huh.

I wonder what possessed them to make that one different. Heh!

@Goldkin well, there's not really space for screws since there's a display glued to the front

@Goldkin and also the pins do a pretty good job of supporting it

Goldkin @Goldkin@awoo.space

@noiob Yeah, that makes sense.

@noiob Also, I hope you have fun with it! I quite liked the ones I picked up from them, after I ironed out some of the technical issues.

Also, separately, best luck with Pwnagotchi if I correctly infer that's what you're building. :D

@Goldkin I like it a lot so far, it's a nice little display! And the pwnagotchi is cute :D
