Visa Experience for EU spouses

Hi, I wanted to know about the experiences of people who are the non-EU spouses of EU country origin partner.

How was your visa application process like? For how long did you get your first visa for, where? If you did, how long was your second, third visa?

I am a Turkish citizen married to a Polish citizen spouse and recently I have applied to Greece and got 5 day single entry visa. Yesterday we came into Athens, went through the EU line together, YES! And me and my partner are wondering how long will I take to get into that 1-2 year schengen visa zone, and how. We are planning to visit Greece again for a week at the end of September.

So please let me know of your experience, and if you have anything to add to my situation, please go ahead.

[WAW] Buying waw from steam

If I buy cod waw from steam right now, will I be able to create an online profile to play with my friends over steam? I have heard things about it not working anymore, and the tags from the steam version of the game have been stripped of "multiplayer"

What did I play in my 4 hour train ride?

What did I play in my 4 hour fast train ride? The device is the Ayn Odin 3 Ultra.

Call of Duty Black Ops 3: Stable 60fps

The Long Dark: Stable 70fps

Outrun 2006 Coast to Coast-Tweaks: Stable 120fps

Easy Delivery Co.: 60-120fps. Low poly game.

Note that I didnt have any internet connection for the entirety of the train ride. I used gamenative for every game except outrun. When I come back home, I will simply connect to the internet and will sync my game saves.

Spouse of an EU citizen, only 5 day visa issued. Confused.

Hey, I (Turkish) am the spouse of a Polish citizen. We recently applied to Greece under the category of: Tourist Visa/Spouse of an EU citizen. They asked us for the documents that proves we will be travelling together and my spouse will be accompanying me in Greece.
The travel itinerary was as follows:
-Athens (23rd-25th of June) asked for MULTI entry. We also wanted to visit the greek islands on a seperate trip but we did not include that in our application.
Showed our marriage certificate from both countries, everything they asked.
Today I have learned that some people are looking into the EES system page to learn how long of a visa they got before they even receive their passport back, so I also checked: 5 day visa.
As the spouse of an EU citizen, am I not entitled for minimum 3 month validity visa? Im slowly going crazy. Is that website fully reliable? I still havent received my passport back, mind you.
And if this is true, 5 day is still very short, dont you guys think? Please let me know what you think/know down below.

As a spouse of an EU citizen, do you try to go through the "EU citizen" passport check line with your spouse, or do you seperate with your spouse, them going to the "EU citizen passport check line", and you to the "other passports line"?

If you went together, what did the officiers say? Did they just accept you together on that line, or did they ask you to seperate?

Hey there, here are some cool things I managed to get working and knowledge I was able to gather in the span of owning my handheld for 4 months. Device: Odin 3 Ultra

-Sonic Unleashed Recompiled (60fps stable): Put everything into an SD card. Run the installer and make sure everything is set and the .exe game executable works on your PC. Plug it back in your device and run it via GameNative custom game. Graphics Driver: Turnip Gen8 V28

-Outrun2006 C2C Tweaks (90fps stable): Same deal, put everything to an sd card via your pc and make sure after everything, the .exe runs properly and the game opens. Go to your config files and uncap your fps, set stuff based on your liking and it will look awesome. I used GameHub Lite for this one with the 8Elite-800.26 driver, but if I had taken the time, I feel like I could run this at 120fps easily with the correct driver/graphics settings.

-Call of Duty Black Ops 1 WITH Plutonium AND Offline play (60fps stable): Find my guide down below
https://www.reddit.com/r/EmulationOnAndroid/comments/1rbnfmx/how_to_play_black_ops_1_zombies_on_gamehubandroid/

-Call of Duty Black Ops 3 (60 fps stable): Via GameNative. Apply the known config and then change your graphics driver to Turnip Adreno Driver T26 (@Mr_Purple_666). Medium graphics settings in game

-The Long Dark (60 fps stable): Via GameNative. Apply the known config and then change your graphics driver to Turnip Gen8 V28. You can even go as far as to cap your fps to 72, which I did. High graphic settings in game, looks beautiful.

-Satisfactory (60 fps stable): Via GameNative. Apply the known config and then change your graphics driver to Turnip Gen8 V28. Inside the game itself, low graphics settings.
Note: I saw people celebrating 30fps for this game on a post someone playing it on their odin 2 portal in an airport. Crazy that this device runs it at 60fps with immature drivers.

-Fallout 4 (60fps stable): Via GameNative. Apply the known config and you are good to go. We are using the system drivers right now, did not have time to test it but I feel like its insane that we can play this kind of game on this device. In close future I would say this is an easy 120fps game with high/med graphics.

-Tomodachi Life: (60FPS!!!): Via Eden Nightly Emulator. Set the limit speed to 109%, use the GPU driver as Turnip Gen8 V28. Cant really help further, these are the settings. The grass on your island will be bugged but other than that its perfectly playable. Used 2 mods: One to make the game go from 30fps to 60fps, and the other to increase the level of detial. Looks beautiful and plays smoothly.

The games I want to test next: Resident Evil 7 BioHazard, Dying Light, Steep, BTD6
The games that did not work well for me:
-A Plague Tale Innocence (wont even open) (if you managed to make it work please lmk.)
-Both Ori games (goes below 60fps in the boss fights, makes it unplayable)

NOTES
-Online play might be possible for some games as of now, but they are very experimental. I messed up my steam overlay and I have to install gamenative from scratch to fix it.
-Turnip Gen8 V28: https://github.com/StevenMXZ/Adreno-Tools-Drivers/releases/tag/v28
-I have very high hopes for the android handheld space, it keeps getting better and better.
-Artemis streaming app works really well. Check out RetroGameCorps for his guide on that: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RiggvcusEuA&t=1330s
-PS2 and Switch works absolutely well. All you gotta worry at this point is whether your PC games would work or not.
