Me, planning a relaxing afternoon playing Star Trucker and Space Marine

Wife, entering the room and announcing her friend gave birth during the night and we'll have to visit her in the afternoon

Can I sneak a Steam Deck into the hospital? Should I? Hm.

@[email protected] Listen up, here’s the tactic.

Take your work bag with your laptop, but also pack your Steam Deck as well. Leave it in the car when you get to the hospital. Spend 10-15 mins but then pretend to take a call whilst looking concerned and walk off. Come back a couple of mins later to say “I’ve got to sort an emergency at work. I’ll be in the car.” Open laptop in the car with something on screen that looks plausible. Start playing your Steam Deck whilst on the lookout for being busted. 👀

@[email protected] "but she needs her time to rest and recuperate. Plus don't all babies look the same really? We'll go another time "

But I don't think that would go down too well. 😄
