It's been four hours. Steam deck fumes killed him. Everyone spread the news.

SteamDeck Sativa edition

[-] criticon@lemmy.ca 8 points 1 year ago

Is it similar to the switch's?

[-] ThePantser@lemmy.world 8 points 1 year ago

Is it possible it could be producing ozone and that it is reacting with the plastic? Ozone is not good to smell.

[-] poopsmith@lemmy.world 6 points 1 year ago

Probably not, that would require fairly high voltages. It's probably plastics off-gassing.

Huh. I wonder if it smells similar to the heat that comes off the back of a PS4.

[-] CrabAndBroom@lemmy.ml 6 points 1 year ago

Maybe, I haven't smelled a PS4 but I have a Steam Deck and it just has that sort of hot electronics smell

[-] NaoPb@eviltoast.org 6 points 1 year ago

So it isn't dangerous but they just don't want you to do it.

I'm wondering if in a few years we find out that hot plastic emits stuff that isn't good for you.

[-] Curiousfur@yiffit.net 5 points 1 year ago

I was literally just doing that lmao

Surely this question has been answered long ago by science, and could have been included in this remarkable piece of journalism.
