There’s a certain diagnostic mode my brain can only enter 5 minutes after I’ve submitted PCBs for production :(

RIP Steve Albini. Gutted I'll never see my favourite live band again (Shellac). Engineer on some of my favourite records. You will be missed!

Is there a word for the first 10 minutes after getting new prescription lenses and the world is so much crisper? You quickly get used to it, but for the first few minutes you feel like the Bionic man.

KiCad-ers! I have a question. If I have a footprint and I want to assign multiple components to it for PCB assembly, what is this feature called? Chat-GPT reckons “Assembly Variants” but can’t find it. For context the footprint contains multiple SMD pin header in groups of 2x5.

🚨BREAKING: Hundreds of people are now marching to the Norwegian Embassy to protest against the Rosebank oilfield. Equinor, the Norwegian oil company will get £3.75 billion of taxpayers money to develop the new field. All the public gets in return is sky-high energy bills.

BREAKING - #Rosebank oilfield just given go-ahead - the greatest act of environmental vandalism in my lifetime, causing emissions equal to 28 lowest income countries, busting #climate targets & doing nothing for energy security since vast majority is for export #climatecriminals

PCB fam - when making front panels do you put the holes for components on the drill layer or the edge cuts layer? I seem to confuse the factory every time (I put everything in as edge cuts)

My friend, the wonderful R.Dyer, did 'a playful sonic response to the process of a PIP application through the lens of neurodivergent culture and language' on Resonance FM which I make a small contribution to. mixcloud.com/Resonance/the-m… @theMWresidency

PCB fam - am I doing something wrong? So many of the parts on JLC PCB assembly are Extended now. Last time I ordered all of the standard resistors/caps were Basic. It's making the order super pricey. (Apologies to everyone apart from the 1 or 2 people who understand this)

@infovore pointed out it’s probably because I’m using 0805 gauge which aren’t very standard.

Actually the Basic passives seem thin on the ground across all gauges

Sad news for Brighton, but if it gives Caroline more time to focus on the Climate Emergency we might all benefit. Thanks for all you’ve done for us!

In 2010 #Brighton Pavilion made history by electing me UK’s 1st Green MP & it’s been the honour of my life. My open letter to residents & friends explains why I’m not standing at next General Election. With love & gratitude, I hope I've done you proud 👇 carolinelucas.com/caroline/p…

Do I know anyone who uses tone.js? The pain of just trying to make the examples run locally (whilst having very little knowledge of JavaScript), is making me want to give-up write everything in C++!

Do I know anyone who uses @wntrblm Gingerbread? Does it work with KiCad 6? The preview looks correct, but when I copy to clipboard I can't paste anything in KiCad PCB Editor. I'm terrible at using software, so it's almost certainly user error.

I haven't been on the @vmobilecinema since I cinema-ushered on it around Jaywick/Mersea in 2010/2011 when I took these pics! SO EXCITED that RAVINE/MACHINE, aka me & @scolar, are performing THREE AV sets on it late tonight at the awesome @BSpiegeltent! 10.50, 11.20, & 11.50(pm)!
