One problem in the United States is that transportation planners apparently think that buses are for the poor and people won’t ride them. Instead they want to build expensive light rail or subway when a good bus system would be much better

For people that own a Steam Deck, how do you like it? And how do you use it? I would like to talk myself into buying one, but I can’t think of a decent use case.

What is your source for this? I’m highly skeptical because it means there was never a time of low wind at night ir when it was cloudy. February 26th of last year sure looks like a lot less than 30% renewable. https://mobile.twi
