Notes from a very normal Monday morning with Retro Gaming for absolute beginners

My current rule is simple: if it takes less than 8 minutes to prepare, I am much more likely to keep doing it.

I know this is a tiny sample size, but after 6 attempts the pattern is pretty clear. When I keep the setup simple, I actually follow through.

Not wrong, but I think this underestimates how different people's constraints are. It sounds small, but the recipe matters.

Amazing how much difference one small change can make. I am curious whether arcade still feels good next month.
