History
On 16 October 2015, JR West announced that it was considering closing the Sanko Line due to poor patronage.[2] On 29 September 2016, JR West announced that the entire line would close on 31 March 2018.[3] The line then closed on March 31, 2018, with an event hosted by JR West.[4]

gollark: It's very annoying that the high-performance phone SoCs which exist have terrible IO and/or aren't sold to the SBC-making companies.
gollark: Technically, by weight, it's probably mostly metal casings and then the weird fibreglass stuff PCBs are made from.
gollark: (I plan to maybe switch over to an RK3588 SBC of some kind when they come out though. Basically the same performance on way less power. Very impressive.)
gollark: My own server is a generation behind that, and that was just randomly lying around for free?
