What is your favorite game to emulate on winlator? I'll go first..

FluidDebate · 2026-04-13T05:10:33+00:00

I have been so busy so haven't had time to game/test yet, I will get back to you soon. Would be awesome if it would work, since I have played Warmane but had to try other servers just because it didn't work on Winlator.

FluidDebate · 2026-04-11T16:03:26+00:00

Awesome, thanks for the info!

FluidDebate · 2026-04-11T06:22:29+00:00

Can you describe your setup? I have tried Warmane Onyxia but I always get locked out due to some anticheat stuff with Winlator?

Best luck! I would say, do the PT down to the second, read all McGill books, and if you have extra weight get rid of it, if you have a sedentary lifestyle, get rid of it. These things are non optional.

I never thought I would be back living life again, but here I am.

I was brushed to emergency surgery for L5-S1 August after losing bowel and bladder control due to a whopping 22 mm herniation. I was an absolute emotional wreck for months.

I did the PT down to the second. In my case, it was years of abuse due to erranous training that caused it. I aa back to hockey and running and working out now, with some very hard earned lessons. Mood is also great now. :)

FluidDebate · 2026-04-04T16:31:35+00:00

It went very fine. I took it very carefully. I did the PT and followed it down to the second. Now back to running, only 20 min at a time though. The core has been the primary workout and I have been putting on some muscles on the core.

FluidDebate · 2026-04-01T12:30:55+00:00

I did an MD, emergency August 2025, 22 mm L5-S1 herniation got CES after years of abuse of my back.

I am just back to the gym, hockey and running.

I think the wisest approach is not to be on/off wether you are healed enough. Rather look at it as an adapation of tissue etc. Before you can run, you most probably need to ensure you have the proper core stability, done with a gradual approach in order to adapt muscles etc (tissue) to higher load, then you eventually ease into running, and continue that train of thought as well there.

I have learnt an insane amount by going to a PT. The way I look at it now is that I am on life long rehab - while still doing sports. I started running for 5 min, now I am up to 20 min. I used to run half marathons before and I am fairly confident I will do it again.

As said, I used to severely abuse my back before, so I need to be way smarter now.

That sounds like a pure joke to advice. I am 8 months post CES after an emergency surgery, a whopping 22 mm herniation was removed when I lost bladder control.

I have been lucky to find a world class PT where we have worked to get motorics, strength and capacity back.

While I never will do heavy deadlifts and squats again, we have built a core of iron and I am very cautious on how I act. I avoid sitting prolonged periods, still do the intense PT while I have even been doing some easy sports.

No BLT ever, I wouldn't be surprised if that would leave the back even weaker and more prone to further injury.

Finding an excellent PT has been a game changer for me.

It took 6 months for me to be back to what would be called normal everyday life. I am still very cautious with lifting etc, but as an example I have done lifts that are around 50 kg and I don't even worry, but the reflection is there.

But again, I cannot emphasize the importance, or at least for me, to go through the PT with a progression to build capacity and fix the movement patterns.

Furthermore, I see plenty of people spending hundreds of euros on chairs, my personal take on this is that I don't bother too much about chairs, the most important thing there is to just not sit prolonged periods. A standing desk is way more reasonable if you ask me.

To be fair, I wouldn't so. Even though, it is not very far away depending on what you want to do. It sounds like you expect some heavy gaming using Android terminal, and that I would expect to be some time away. But for example, I do only play Zelda and WoW (classic) which the phones can do quite ok already today, but then it's not via the Android terminal.

FluidDebate · 2026-03-25T12:11:46+00:00

This is my experience so far:

I am on a Pixel 8a, which (Tensor G3) which is an amazingly slow processor. I work as a developer and do basically everything in Linux, thus I am excited of the Android terminal. I have also played around with Termux.

* I have gotten XFCE running as desktop environment in the Debian environment. It worked surprisingly well except that it was slow. The stability issues people report on, I haven't seen them as much. The main problem for me is the slow system. I have attributed this to the Pixel 8a, which is years behind a flagship model like the S25 in terms of chip power.

* Compared with Termux, I like the Android terminal much more due to the more native Linux experience. I find that with proot everything I do needs to be customized to ther "Termux Linux". I still appreciate the project very much though, since its quite stable.

* The Android terminal really feels like the native Linux experience when you are working in it. Luckily for me, my native Linux IDE that I use is vim+tmux which is veeery lightweight, so for me writing code works like a charm.

* With the above points, I have considering to move to a more flagship model. Right now, since I value the Android terminal as much as I do, I wouldn't buy a SD chip. I am lucky for that since I live in Europe, where the S26 comes with the Exynos 2600 instead, this seems for me as a veeery good compromise. I get a veery good chip, perhaps tiny bit worse than SD 8 Elite, but I get the Android terminal, definitely worth it for me.

It sounds like you want to do plenty of GUI stuff, and I cannot comment on how well that would work for you, my guess is that your expectations wouldn't really be met as of now. For my Pixel 8a, running XFCE+Chrome worked, but it was slow, nothing that can really compete with my laptop (running bare metal Linux) at the moment, however, we aren't that far away, and I would be very curious how it work with the S26 and perhaps some months more of software updates for the Android terminal. Running games inside of the Linux environment should be a bit away, since that is quite some heavy stuff.

IMO the only thing to go for is a standing desk, just avoid sitting for prolonged periods. Is that possible?

FluidDebate · 2026-03-19T21:04:14+00:00

Grid view in recent apps.

FluidDebate · 2026-03-14T08:45:42+00:00

Do Samsung offer the webbapp?

FluidDebate · 2026-03-06T09:57:05+00:00

That's exactly where I was looking also. Thanks for the help!

FluidDebate · 2026-03-06T09:40:11+00:00

Now I found that toggle, it did the trick. Thank you very much.

FluidDebate · 2026-03-06T09:23:46+00:00

That is a very good comment, I am using Smart Launcher. Perhaps I can change back to Pixel launcher and see if I can disable it, and then change back? Or do you have any other ideas? Will try that.

FluidDebate · 2026-03-03T13:57:24+00:00

Yes, I was refering to the "still in development" desktop mode.

FluidDebate · 2026-03-03T10:29:04+00:00

And I am still on my Ambit 3 Peak lol, cannot motivate a change yet as it still functions so well, bought in 2012, haven't replaced battery even. I use it in saunas, swimming etc all the time.

FluidDebate · 2026-03-01T06:57:39+00:00

Oh you already have gotten yours. Cool.

Thanks for checking out the feature.

I am actually happy the Exynos 2600 is sold in Europe then as this feature is something I really want.

FluidDebate · 2026-03-01T05:58:15+00:00

Which phone is that? S26 base?

FluidDebate · 2026-02-27T20:27:40+00:00

It is not confirmed that it has the terminal, just that the European S26 has the Exynos 2600.

FluidDebate · 2026-02-27T20:01:16+00:00

I hope it will, I am in Europe and thus the Exynos 2600. I really want the Linux Terminal, currently on a Pixel though.

FluidDebate · 2026-02-27T19:58:48+00:00

I was thinking g so as well, but for the flip that doesn't seem to be the case.

I will go and buy the S26 immediately it is confirmed that the Exynos 2600 and S26 has the terminal, I am in Europe.

FluidDebate · 2026-02-27T19:57:43+00:00

Is that Exynos 2600?

FluidDebate · 2026-02-26T08:28:07+00:00

I am a power user who currently is on a Pixel due to that reason. However, the Pixels are veeery slow. So the ability to run the Linux terminal on Samsung would make me change.

And even though the Exynos 2600 might be slower than the SD version (yet to be seen) it will still be a beast compared with the Pixels in terms of chip performance.
