Very cool ! Finally something to do with my old phones lying around
(but who commits their .DS_Store file tho ? 🙈)
I’m convinced Mac users just become blind to the file. I see it all over repos at work.
Because adding to the .gitignore would threaten their existence.
rookie mistake 🤣
Incredible things are happening with termux.
we really need a user friendly gui app tgat can finish tge whole setup into a linux environment quickly and easily. think of it like carlimaries installer for linux on Android
This doesn’t look like another alpine vm. But maybe I misread the install script. I see it uses apt so some sort of Debian base? If so, no root, GPU accelerated, not virtualized, Linux on Android is quite the accomplishment.
You never needed a VM to run Linux apps on Android. Android can run Linux apps because it is already a Linux operating system. This is like referring to a docker container as “running Linux on Debian” or whatever.

If by Linux you mean “literally everything except Linux” though, then sure. But I prefer to say what I mean and mean what I say

Linux, the kernel, is the thing that containers run on top of. The container does not actually contain an instance of Linux, it shares it with the host.

What I ask myself here is why I should have unused phones lying around in the first place?
If I somehow think constantly wasting money on a new model just because there is a new number written on its packaging is worth it, I would not actually think in terms of reusing old hardware.
If I am however thinking about using hardware instead of just throwing it away while still functional why wouldn’t I use a phone as anyone else as a phone?
