One benefit of getting my girlfriend the steam deck is I can just get her games for Christmas and her birthday. I know you don't necessarily need a steam deck but it helps because I know what will run on there.

You can also access someone's wishlist on Steam. It takes a little bit of tinkering with URLs but it's doable. So during sales like the one on currently I can just scroll through and add things until I feel like I've spent enough

"Steam deck" sounds like something I might like to use to wash my windows with.

Steam Deck 2000. Steams and washes with one touch of a button, leaving your windows sparkling clean.

In a way it does wash windows from your life. It's a gaming handheld and it has the benefit of keeping people entertained so you can have some time to yourself
