After a nice long fight I finally got a customized footprint in KiCAD with different geometries on different layers to work correctly.
They were originally designed in an older program that didn't care much about rules and it took several tries to make this work.
So happy now.
@NormanDunbar @MakeAugusta it's all good; it can be hard to tell on social media. Text doesn't give us much to go on to figure out the context.
@NormanDunbar @MakeAugusta it's a joke.
He's just making a joke out of an image.
It has been too long since I last reminded you that I love you and for that I apologize; life gets in the way of the important things sometimes.
I love you.

"But why are you still on Twitter?"
Listen. I am an internet ancient. I stood amidst LiveJournal as it crumbled while I watched the fall of Flickr. I was there both times Tumblr burned down, toasting marshmallows over its smouldering ruin, laughing at the folly of Verizon. The death of Twitter was foretold by the dark prophecies of the forgotten internets. I am there to witness its passing as the old internet is dying and the new internet struggles to be born. Now is the time of monsters.
It's 11:10 AM Eastern and I'm glad you are alive.
Thank you for being here with me.

We had fun last night building this awesome ballon with @ItsMrJP and chatting about making and what drew him to balloons! Check the video out on YouTube, and the audio is up in podcast form in all the podcast places.

This week on the livestream we're making a tiny LED balloon with @ItsMrJP ! JP is a friend who we had the privilege of sharing a tent with recently at LA Maker Faire, and he's been on a hot air baloon 3D printing and lighting kick for a while now. We'll hear how he got started, what keeps him going, and what the challenges are in making a kit for others to build balloons. Join us tomorrow 04/20 at 4pm Pacific! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F7_Y3E-ANH8
@swamptin all beards that are cared for are glorious!
