They haven't done a mini-game in years.. probably because they were always over exploited by scripts.

It's annoying, but expected since Apple made ads that told everyone that a Mac was not a “PC” (which was obviously Windows).
It's more of a relic of the "old days" when you had multiple home computers from different running on different architectures.

Macintosh, Amstrad CPC, Atari ST, IBM-PC, etc

IBM-PC was the one that essentially won and just eventually got abbreviated to simply 'PC' and as the main OS on the IBM-PC was DOS/Windows that's just what it is associated with by the mass public.

The 'confusion' is mostly due to the abbreviated IBM-PC being the same as the generic term PC for all personal computer systems.

Another reason/use for 15fps is for non-gaming programs that you might be running/using where it doesn't really matter at all. Music, writing a document, casually browsing the web for some basic information, etc.

An update on installing Epic Games on Steam Deck, plus accessing the SD Card

I've said it in a comment in another video, but I think would be a good idea to make a more general guide on hidden files and common locations for game data and exploring\explaining individual game prefixes/editing the registry on each prefix/etc.

As some people might not realise that each game runs in it's own instance or wonder why certain games can't find another games data (because it's in a difference instance)

Wait, Can you live boot with that image?
You can do some simple things but it's more for recovery/installation than actual practical use.
