Valve Urges Steam Deck Owners to Avoid Inhaling Exhaust Fumes
Valve has urged Steam Deck owners to stop inhaling the exhaust fumes from the device, stating that while there are no safety concerns with general usage, directly inhaling the vent fumes should be avoided for the sake of one's health. The practice of smelling the hot air produced by the portable gaming device has become a viral meme among users, with some finding the scent oddly satisfying. However, there is no scientific basis confirming the long-term effects of inhaling such fumes, and it is generally not recommended to inhale the exhaust fumes of any electronic device.
