No not at all, and for that I’m grateful!

I bought Hades since it’s on sale right now and it runs really well. I’m even getting 60 FPS at 4k (external monitor) unless the screen gets super busy, but personally I don’t notice the frames drop down to 45 or whatever except for the number itself changing. What a fantastic game on a fantastic device.

Sorry I’m not familiar with Chimera OS at all. Do you find that there’s a lot of little papercut issues or does it work smoothly?

This won’t work for everyone, but I have 2 tips:

• make sure you do exercise that you enjoy doing. Whether that’s in the moment or afterwards. And by enjoy I mean more than a sense of feeling satisfied because you managed to exercise.
• unless you feel injured or sick, on low motivation days the no.1 focus is getting to your place of exercise and starting your warmup. Tell yourself that if you still feel shit after completing your warmup, you’ll go home. More often than not you’ll be fine after you warm up, or you’ll be psyched even if you still feel a bit tired. Using this method I’ve never gone home but I have definitely cut sessions off early and I always leave that possibility open otherwise the mental hack wouldn’t work!

For now I need to work through my backlog. It’s not huge because I don’t watch steam sales unless a mate tells me about a particular game, but it’s still sizeable. Need to get through the Crash Bandicoot and Spyro trilogy remasters. Hoping to mess around with Untitled Goose Game with the missus too if it tickles her fancy. God I can’t get used to the console controls for Terraria though.

My Steam Deck arrived today, time to tinker! And thanks @lodion@aussie.zone for fronting the hosting costs of this instance.
