I cleaned the XBone from 10 years of dust and just learned that you have to create an online account to even use it. -
I don't know who needs to hear this (the answer is probably no one Cameron) but the easiest way to close the end of IC tubes like this is to just take an xacto knife and make a tiny cut like this.@old_angry_queer pretty sure my dad used to cut two longitudinal slits into the middle of the end end, and just bend the the resulting tab up/down as needed.

i'm working on a SPI NAND Flash applet for #GlasgowInterfaceExplorer.@whitequark @r my understanding is that the OS is free to use the extra bytes as they will, so the ostensible 2k+64bytes may actually be used as 4*(512b+16b) or whatever they want. Which means that separating them doesn’t actually give you anything meaningful. Besides which, the OOB data may have important ECC data required to properly interpret the data bytes anyway.
And finally, most tooling expects to receive it in that format (nandwrite, xgecu’s software, etc).
