This week I have been mostly playing Jurassic World Evolution 2.
Last month I became a rat mum IRL. This week, I am mother to genetically-spliced, man-eating, prehistoric abominations. Bit of a step up in the world, but life... uh, finds a way.
This month I have been mostly testing Steam Deck SSDs.

I'll get a proper how-to up soon on how to upgrade the Steam Deck SSD, video and all, but first I must complain into the ether about how me and my Windows-baked neurons made upgrading the Steam Deck SSD an utter nightmare, despite it being a relatively simple process end-to-end.
