One of the reasons I support free transit is because relying on fare revenue is a trap. One economic downturn, one pandemic, and suddenly the transit system is on life support and needs to drastically reduce service. On the other hand, funding operations through general taxes allows voters to dictate how to handle funding operations, rather than markets.
[This is just one reason I like free transit; I have many. And yes, if your democracy is broken, so is your transit]

Growing up, the main bus in my town was every 10 minutes and always packed. I didn't worry about timetables I just left the house and knew it would be there. Now it's every half hour and completely deserted. This is no coincidence. Fund buses properly and people will use them.

Barton Hall like you've never seen it -- since they haven't finished the new field hockey field they rolled out turf inside Barton! They had a game today but I missed it, not least because i didn't pack the right lens, but given that the bus broke down on the way home I should have been there!

Just wasted like an hour trying to get a simple bidirectional bus to work on a Trion. ILA was reading garbage on a design that had previously been working.
Eventually I gave up. Blew away the Efinity project, recreated it from scratch on the same RTL and constraints. Now it works.
I have no idea what happened.
In general the unified flow seems to be *very* buggy wrt making any changes to the RTL and not propagating properly to the interface constraints.

Not to mention that available foods may not be suitable.
The one time my wife and I had to use a food bank during COVID, we queued for a couple of hours, constantly derided for being shiftless and poor by the Baptist volunteers who ran the bank.
At the end, we were told to be thankful for what we received: a couple of pieces of fruit that would’ve killed my wife (anaphylactic allergies) and pasta, pasta sauce, and bread, all containing gluten (she has coeliac disease).

@skinnylatte@hachyderm.io It's why I've actually turned from wanting to give to things like food banks towards getting cash in people's hands. Sure, I know food banks can buy food for cheaper, but poor people know better than anyone where their cash needs to go. Maybe they need medicine or rent or bus fare or whatever else more than they need food. Or they know how to stretch a dollar to the most calories possible. A bag of food doesn't help you if you can't get to work. Or you get evicted. Or …
