I would like to get something off my chest. I have never sniffed my steam deck. Thank you.
Sniff the air vent softly while playing an intense game. The heat creates a wonderful sweet, sort of electronic savory smell.
It's really lovely. I sniff my Steam Deck air vent probably once or twice a week on average. Some weeks much more if it's cold out.
It feels nice to lightly brush the tip of your nose across the ribs of the went while inhaling too :)
Steam Deck... After dark
Steamy Deck ;)
Instead of tip of your nose I recommend the stubbles of your facial hair 10/10.
Try it while you still can. Mine has faded and now I live in permanent sadness
You should. Nothing like the smell of Steam Deck to get you going.
You’re missing out ;-)
man I feel like I'm missing out. My Steam Deck has no discernible smell.
Have you considered you may have covid? Can you smell other things?
Nothing like a few essential oils to retrain your sense of smell. I recommend lavender, cinammon, lime, mint, and blown integrated circuits.
