Why are they called EEPROMs? If they're EE and P then they aren't RO
>>

They are read-only for software. Not hardware.

>>109436149
then how come you can save data on a game boy game pak?

>>109436162
Probably putting up voltage high to enable write pins or something.

>>109436181
if it was possible with high power consumption in 1989 I imagine it's possible without it today

>Why are they called EEPROMs?
because of Electrical Engenieers' PRO Marketing

"Electronic Erasable programmable Read Only Memory" is indeed a bit non-sense of a name, but it's the result of piling up stuff.
First ROM, then PROM, then EPROM, then EEPROM

>>109436124
They were not intended to be writable under normal conditions, at least originally.
The boundary has blurred in the time since, but the name stuck.

Don't know which side to support desu.
On one hand, OP could just ask google (so far also Gemini) and get his answers to such a basic question.
On other hand, OP needs engagement bait to screenshot funny responses arising from this thread to reddit to get updoots.

Which is it, OP?

>>109437881
you’re putting a lot of effort into writing the shitpost, and very little effort into making a good shitpost that includes original images

lmao

>>109437911
same shit happening on most boards. /g/ and /vr/ have completely given up banning schizos spamming boards for years on end. same loser(s) that spam every single board with the same shit. 4chan's regular users are spending more time going out of their way to shit on these losers instead of interacting with them. this website is finished and the spamming losers are trying desperately to keep it alive with ai spam

>>109438135
meanwhile jannoids will hand out bans for mocking and telling pedos to kill themselves in blatantly off-topic pedo threads
i sure do love this website
