Depending on what apps you want, you can try downloading Winlator and run them. I’ve had some success running windows games on my phone. However I never tried productivity apps.

But… Theoretically, if “wine” can run them then Winlator should be able to run them.

That’s about as close as it gets currently. Although it does require some level of tech savvy knowledge I suppose (and an android phone). Which thus means it isn’t perfect as you previously stated.

Maybe it’ll improve over time. Just have to wait and see.

I’m not sure if the feature is region locked or not. I didn’t have to worry about any of that. This feature is brand new with the One UI 7 update.

I currently have and use a Samsung Galaxy S24+. Not sure what you mean by CSC.

There is a default voice recorder app included with the phone which can be used for meetings or other recordings. But when I make a phone call there is an extra button on screen. When clicking the button it informs the caller that the call is being recorded for legal reasons. Any recording that goes thru that app is able to be transcribed.

For users with a Samsung Flagship phone, if you have the “One UI 7” update, they just recently added this feature.

I use Kdenlive to make Karaoke videos. The kind with text and it animates over the text. Allowing viewers to sing the songs.

Granted… I only started last year and I only have 2 videos and I’m severely slacking off… But that’s besides the point haha… I still did it.

Here’s hoping the update is really good.

My friends and I used to do regular LAN parties. And this one game we got into… The original “Monster Hunter” for the PS2. We would all bring our PS2s to my place. And plugin to a network switch. And each of us had our own TV / Monitor.

And this one friend ALWAYS brought his large tube TV lol. We used to joke about how it’s a powderstone. Which is an item in the game that was heavy and when dropped would explode and send you flying.

Ahh… It was good times back then. Good memories.

Literally anything you like!

I personally have a strong leaning towards rock music groups from the 90s to 00s ish. Such as “Linkin Park” and “Papa Roach”. I also like newer bands such as “Starset” and “Project Vela”. I just can’t do the screaming parts haha.

Random side note: And… if I could stop being lazy maybe I’ll make more karaoke videos on YouTube haha. (I try to make ones for my favorite songs that don’t have karaoke videos for it yet.)

I use 2 pieces of software.

One is called “Ultimate Vocal Remover”. Free and available on GitHub. It’s a piece of software that seperates the vocals from the instrumentals. It’s a little bit complicated to setup but once you got it setup you can just drag and drop the original audio in and then it spits out all the different tracks and stuff.

Then I use another one called “KdenLive”. Also Free download. This one is basically a video editor. And can be used to create the text for lyrics. It can also do animations and such. Admittedly it’s a lot of work if you want to animate the lyrics haha. You basically have to line up the highlighting with each syllable in the word. Doing it without highlighting is a lot easier but also less precise. So pros and cons. ( I’m the meticulous type haha, it’s just time consuming).

A friend of mine helped research this for me as they too wanted to do karaoke videos. And then they taught me while showing me their screen. We’re considering creating a tutorial video for others but we haven’t got around to it yet.

;-)

Lookup “Impulse Karaoke” on YouTube if you want to see my work. Though currently I only have 2 songs so far. I’m trying to do 1 song per month. I have a list I’m working off of. We’ll see what happens after that.

I started learning how to make karaoke videos. Because the songs I like to sing are not readily available in karaoke format on YouTube.

I made a channel for it and everything 😉 I’m getting ready to publish my 2nd video very soon.

My goal is to try to do 1 song per month at a minimum. But, I do also have a day job and life stuff to juggle. So the YouTube channel is just a hobby.

My list of coop games

I don’t remember playing the math game. Maybe I did idk. But I remember playing like a matching game like Othello maybe or was it like tic tac toe I don’t remember.

And I also watched alot of NOVA space related videos and content. I like space. :-)

My family had the Prodigy internet service when I was a kid.

Storage. SanDisk recently announced an 8TB SD card. I remember back when all I had was 1.44MB floppy disks in like the 90s.
