• T95 Android TV (Allwinner H616) includes malware right out-of-the-box

  Your question is invalid (and my point proven, sadly) unless you know how to run Linux Deploy on a Chromecast. You were too busy trying to be the smartest guy in the room before thinking to ask what I was actually doing with this thing in the first place. Source: about 1 year ago

• Has anyone got pihole working?

  Yes; I use Linux Deploy on most of my rooted Android devices to set up a chroot environment easily (it's kinda old though, so there may be much better alternatives). I used my old Amazon Fire as a Pi-hole that way. Source: about 1 year ago

• Pi-hole for Android APK • Installer for any rooted Android 5.0+ device

  I published a fork of Linux Deploy that automatically installs Pi-hole and Unbound, configures SSH/RDP access, and optionally installs Raspbian PIXEL Desktop to any rooted Android 5.0+ device. Source: over 1 year ago

• Having one hell of a time compiling gpsd in termux, any help is welcome

  I use LinuxDeploy to stage my chroots, simple and easy (also available on Play and F-Droid) on rooted. I even have a mobile/handheld software defined radio (or as I like to refer to it as, a 1st gen, poor persons TriCorder). Can't do this in Termux or a proot, but in a chroot and easy as eating cake.

• Need help for a task, $500 reward!

  I haven't used android in a year or two, but I believe you can install a chrooted linux on an android phone through an app. Things like LinuxDeploy: https://github.com/meefik/linuxdeploy. Source: almost 2 years ago

• Show HN: An ultra-light-weight tool to quickly test your ping

  On Android, I run servers under Termux, e.g., DNS and HTTPS proxy. Another use is checking email without using a browser or an app. I use a tiny shell script to check for new mail with openssl. It prints out the messages to the terminal as plain text. Termux has good scrolling so its easy enough to read. This allows me to keep email out of the browser and email messages off the phone, generally.... - Source: Hacker News / over 1 year ago

• The Digital Typewriter and the Unnecessarily Costly Pursuit of Focus

  Also: Whilst it's not the same as native Linux directly available, and the many, many limitations and frustrations of Android still apply, Termux can be installed on the BOOX (via F-Droid), and provides excellent capabilities. Over 2,200 packages now. https://termux.com/. - Source: Hacker News / over 1 year ago

• Analyze IP address from outside

  You could simply use your mobile phone's internet connection for external analysis. Hotspot, tether, or, if you have an Android device, just install Termux, which will give you access to many of the common network. Source: over 1 year ago

• Install/run HB on NVIDIA Shield?

  Use termux app, it’s a terminal emulator where you can install node and stuff. I’ve done it before. https://termux.com. Source: over 1 year ago
