Riley S. Faelan@damnbear: That cable is not properly queer. It's rolled so straight it can't possibly have the queer CS twist in it.

@riley @damnbear true, true...
And it's not even havibg enough pins!!!

@[email protected] @[email protected] by the pin count (30) it's neither Floppy (34) nor IDE (40) or MiniIDE (44) https://mstdn.social/@kkarhan/110476298287654225 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Floppy_disk_drive_interface
Koz Ross@damnbear Rainbow cable, not ribbon cable.
Jernej Simončič �@damnbear Looks more like a floppy connector :(

@[email protected] that's not an #IDE connector, as it only has 30 leads and 30 pins!!!!!
@jernej__s @damnbear there are several of those since the @Raspberry_Pi since Version 2 has a 40-pin #GPIO which non-coincidentially has the same pin spacing and even before, I also do fondly remember those #IDE cables...

🐧DaveNull🐧 ☣️pResident Evil☣MiniIDE being *bigger* than IDE doesn't make any sense. Whoever decided "let's design an IDE-like connector with 4 more pins than actual IDE-) connector and name it *Mini*IDE" was high on LSD…
@jernej__s Yeah, But that's not my point… I'm not asking why it's bigger.
I mean "Mini $whatever" for something that is actually bigger than "$whatever" is a misnomer
Mini litteraly means smaller than…
There's a reason why any other connector uses "Mini" prefix for "smaller than what is considered full size connector". Be it Jack, USB, HDMI, DisplayPort…

@iagondiscord @damnbear *new #RetroComputing #month just dropped*
But no, it's not #IDE!

Vic@damnbear But that’s not enough pins for IDE…
lopta@damnbear 30-pin IDE is unusual. ;-)

AwesumIndustrys@damnbear where can I buy this and what can I plug it into?
SGM Mooseknuckler@damnbear nerds have been gay AF since the beginning of time.
