I wish the Steam Controller used AA batteries
I own an 8BitDo SN30 Pro+ controller that has a neat feature: It comes with a rechargeable battery back that is user replaceable via a simple back cover, but regular AA batteries can also be used in the same slot instead.
Kinda like an Xbox controller, except that the rechargeable battery was actually included instead of being a separate purchase, and no adapter is needed for either battery types.

Don't expect a Steam Deck 2 until silicon breakthroughs arrive, says Valve
Honestly, I'm glad they aren't in a rush to constantly release slightly improved models, unlike phone manufacturers for example. Wait a few years and make the upgrade count.

Honestly, I always thought it was overrated. Some catchy music, sure, but I don't think it really holds up otherwise. Maybe the play was better?

So, schools aren't even capable of teaching students how to read clocks anymore?

No, screw that whataboutism. When I went to school, I learned so much information that is virtually useless to most people, and not nearly enough skills and knowledge that would actually be helpful in daily life. I would like to see the situation improve for future generations.
Analogue clocks are everywhere and being able to read them is still important. Besides, if schools aren't even capable of teaching something so simple to students, I think that calls into question their ability to teach far more complex things.

"I do not speak French" versus "I do not know how to speak French". Both are correct, though only the latter clarifies not speaking the language because they do not understand it, rather than purely out of spite. So in this specific case, the former could be used as a subtle FU.

Retirees 'stunned' as market turmoil over tariffs shrinks their 401(k)s

Doesn't matter to them, the rich are isolated from any real repercussions of their behaviours. The older ones probably think they'll be out of the game before things get worse anyway. Short term benefits for them are worth the long term issues for the rest of us, just as always.

I'm not screaming about the young people; I was "the young people" not that long ago. Not everyone who criticizes education is an out of touch boomer resisting every societal change.
Actually, analogue clocks have been obsoleted in almost every way by digital clocks for at least half a century, as digital wristwatches first hit the market in the 1970s. And yet, analogue clocks are still found everywhere. Classes, stores, train stations, homes, offices, not to mention the majority of wristwatches, still mostly use analogue clocks. In fact, excluding screens, I wouldn't be surprised if most people came across more analogue clocks than digital clocks on a daily basis. They're technologically obsolete, but haven't fallen out of use.
