I paid for Reddit Premium for years to help support the service and legitimately remove ads. If I remember right, it was around $4/month, so $48/year.

Why do you feel hydrogen is the future?

From my understanding, it’s more of a fuel than a storage medium so they kind of play different roles. On top of that, I thought it’s currently pretty difficult to store outside of pretty extreme conditions and the best way to create it at the moment is by burning fossil fuels (natural gas).

I’m not an expert, so let me know if I got any of that wrong!

Thanks, that all makes a lot of sense.

It looks like pad 5/VCC is on the middle-left, pad 2/GND is on the middle-right, and pad 6/data is on the upper-left of the footprint when I open the hillside46.kicad_pcb file in the KiCad PCB Editor, click on ‘View’, and check “Flip Board View”.

As a sanity check, given the info above: it looks like I could rotate that ESD chip 180 degrees (so that the ESD chip’s pin 1 is on the lower-right pad of the footprint) and have everything work, correct?

I really appreciate your offer, and I’d totally take you up on it if @SurvivorBobXYZ hadn’t already provided a reply above. Thank you so much for all of your help!

I do think this may have more to do with the fact that Beehaw, my current instance, recently made the decision to defederate with lemmy.world. Is that assumption correct?

Thanks for the suggestion!

I tried hitting the crosspost button and pasting in !ece@lemmy.world, but it said something like “no results found”. Is this because of the defederation I read about? Is there another easy way to do this or would I have to create a new account on lemmy.world and copy/paste my post over there?
