    Yeah, Universal Spower Bus. Sounds right. I was reading the “power” part emphasized in the comment you replied to. Prior to mass adoption by phone mfrs, USB wasn’t powering all that much. You’d usually have 5v wall wart and cable ending in a barrel connector. Hate those things.

      The Universal Spower Bus

      sounds like an awesome transit vehicle!

      Let’s take a ride!

      Edit: Spower is a contraction of Space and Power. Yes, you heard me right. It’s running on spinfinite space power!

      And there you have it,
