Ok, we are doing this thing in a slightly different way. Because kickstarter has limitations on how they fundraise, we are doing this thru GoFundMe. HOWEVER, much like a kickstarter, there will be tiers for donations to the convention that get you different things. Badge level, Supporting Membership level, and Glad to help level. Come see!

would my Framework charge if plugged into one outlet but not another? I tested the outlet from which it did not charge and it works for other devices.

I shut it down for an hour and everything works again.
