  How do you guys cook your fumes?

  I run crank up all the performance settings and keep Ling’s website on 24x7. Nothing makes a more decadent fume than running state-of-the-art portable gaming hardware on shitty web code. Can’t beat the high off of Steam Deck engineers’ imaginary tears.

    I’m imagining this in the ProZD hydro homies voice about before and after you discover an online community for a hobby.

    Don’t besmirch the good name of Ling’s Cars like that, it’s like a lighthouse in a sea of corporate blandness!

  That’s hilarious

  • Baku@aussie.zone ⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago

    It made me laugh when I saw it pop up in my news feed

  You’re not the boss of me steam. Just keep the supply moving, I need my good good

• Ltcpanic@lemmy.world ⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago

  This “article” lacks any attempt at explanation for that sweet sweet Valve plastic smell. I feel like the index has the same flavor. Maybe their component suppliers?

  source

  • Baku@aussie.zone ⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago

    Yeah it’s honestly not really an article, more like a summarised and paraphrased version of the Reddit post it came from. But I thought the headline was pretty funny

• tacosanonymous@lemm.ee ⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago

  I had no idea that people other than me were doing this.

  stop making it smell so good and i will

  source
• MamboGator@lemmy.world ⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago

  My Steam Deck doesn’t have the smell anymore, but when it did I knew it was unhealthy to smell it, yet I did anyways. It didn’t even smell good. It was just impossible to resist.

• modifier@lemmy.ca ⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago

  Even this makes me want one.

  source
• SrTobi@feddit.de ⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago

  I thought I’m doing this to check how hot the steam deck runs. It’s just so convinient to tilt it and check with the nose… But now, after reading the article, I’m not sure I’m not addicted to the fumes!

  Just a few drops of essential oils into the vents while playing some demanding game and all your worries will fly away!

  source

  • MrBusiness@lemmy.zip ⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago

    Who needs essential oils with those vents?! Bout to make a Bane mask outta Deck vents.

• ShittyBeatlesFCPres@lemmy.world ⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago

  I guess I’ll have to add this to my upcoming Steam Deck Owner Simulator game.

  • Feathercrown@lemmy.world ⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago

    Release it on steam deck but just make it a blank screen since they’re already experiencing owning a steam deck

    source
• Kongar@lemmy.dbzer0.com ⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago

  If they didn’t want me sniffing it, then they shouldn’t have made it smell EXACTLY like my first PC. Until then I’m huffing it like ashy larry hits the pipe.

  source
• Dexx1s@lemmy.world ⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago

  I don’t own a Steam Deck nor have access to one…but now I want to sniff one. I must know what it smells like!

  source

  • thatKamGuy@sh.itjust.works ⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago

    It’s got that ‘new-tech’ smell blowing out of the cooling vents in spades… it’s legitimately pleasant!

  WTF is wrong with people?

  source
• Fubarberry@sopuli.xyz ⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago

  For better or worse, I never quite understood the Steam deck smell. My sense of smell lacks the ability to smell a lot of things, so I’m guessing I’m just unable to pick up on whatever makes it so appealing to people.

  What does it smell like?

  source

  • averyminya@beehaw.org ⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago

    It’s a bit sweet. Not to the full extent of 3D printing PLA but it’s in the area.

    Interestingly, the Valve Index scent is almost exactly the same as the Steam Deck vent scent, just the Deck’s air is heated. I remember the Steam Controller box also smelling like this.

    • neocamel@lemmy.studio ⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago

      Ahh ok I know the smell of pla quite well, thanks!

  Dear Valve, stop telling me what to do. And no, I won’t wear a hat on a windy day either
