What happens to the fan/PiCap when attempting to use them together without any Fan SHIM software running? Fan SHIM has an onboard pull-up to 3v3 on this pin, which could...

My go-to for this sort of bodge is copper-enamel because it's insulated, and extremely thin/flexible. But any thin, stranded core wire will do (most solid core hookup wire is pretty...

Good point! While I think I'd prefer something like `bme280.get_temperature_fahrenheit()` or `bme280.get_temperature(unit='fahrenheit')` but since - in both instances - that would require the code being there and commented out... might...

The big issue here is that dropping the necessary requirements for Raspberry Pi made setting up this library for 99.9% of users a complete and total pain- we ended up...

As long as your LUTs are configured to create no voltage difference across the screen for Black/Red then you can - I believe - safely ignore this memory portion. This...
