Linux > android NDK > AOT
GNU/Linux > GNU > QT/GTK

It can, you just need shell access.

For once posting this is not ironic, but it has to do with your Linux desktop is Linux kernel with the GNU userland running on top of it, while on Android it's Linux kernel with a JVM running on top of it
Landon Kelly
You can, and I'm not talking about that Remix OS shit. There's something like Flatpaks/Snaps specifically for Android apps. Google it.
Logan Smith
nice tits

Nice everything. She's like a 9.5 out of 10.

I'd just like to interject for a moment. What you're referring to as Linux, is in fact, GNU/Linux, or as I've recently taken to calling it, GNU plus Linux. Linux is not an operating system unto itself, but rather another free component of a fully functioning GNU system made useful by the GNU corelibs, shell utilities and vital system components comprising a full OS as defined by POSIX.
Many computer users run a modified version of the GNU system every day, without realizing it. Through a peculiar turn of events, the version of GNU which is widely used today is often called "Linux", and many of its users are not aware that it is basically the GNU system, developed by the GNU Project.
There really is a Linux, and these people are using it, but it is just a part of the system they use. Linux is the kernel: the program in the system that allocates the machine's resources to the other programs that you run. The kernel is an essential part of an operating system, but useless by itself; it can only function in the context of a complete operating system. Linux is normally used in combination with the GNU operating system: the whole system is basically GNU with Linux added, or GNU/Linux. All the so-called "Linux" distributions are really distributions of GNU/Linux.

hmm
you can. just install google's java and surfaceflinger

Pretty much . There was some project to enable launching Android JVM and shit on GNU/Linux distro, but I couldn't get it to work personally.

Nice tits though, probably fake considering her attitude.

I thought the reason was that android apps are ARMx7 only

Wrong. In this case they've replaced everything from the Linux kernel up with their own userland which runs on top of their own JVM. So in this case you could say it's like JVM/Linux or something like that. I dont even think they link the JVM with GNU's libc, I think they use an embedded C library.
You'd have to install their userland alongside the regular GNU userland. There's some ebuilds for that stuff in portage but they are hardmasked. I think there is a androd distro compiled to run on x86 though.

Android apps are mostly Dalvik/ART bytecode, compiled AOT during install for the most part.
Adrian Thompson
If OS X is BSD, why can't I run all the OS X shitware on a normal OpenBSD install?
Hunter Richardson
>google's java
YOU MEAN A JAVA VM
SO ANDROID IS A JAVA VM AND ANDROID APPS ARE JAVA APPS!!!!!!!!!!!!!

On top of the Linux kernel, there are the middleware, libraries and APIs written in C, and application software running on an application framework which includes Java-compatible libraries.
Android used Dalvik as a process virtual machine with trace-based just-in-time (JIT) compilation to run Dalvik "dex-code" (Dalvik Executable), which is usually translated from the Java bytecode.
Android's standard C library, Bionic, was developed by Google specifically for Android, as a derivation of the BSD's standard C library code. Bionic itself has been designed with several major features specific to the Linux kernel. The main benefits of using Bionic instead of the GNU C Library (glibc) or uClibc are its smaller runtime footprint, and optimization for low-frequency CPUs
Android does not have a native X Window System by default, nor does it support the full set of standard GNU libraries. This made it difficult to port existing Linux applications or libraries to Android
Android-x86 is a version of Android
en.wikipedia.org
is an unofficial initiative to port Google's Android mobile operating system to run on devices powered by AMD and Intel x86 processors, rather than RISC-based ARM chips.

Proofs? I can`t speak hue.

Even better then

you mean dalvik?
Brandon Richardson
I speak, and there is no proof. Also she doesn't even look like OP's girl
Hudson White
Samuel Lopez
Neither look like shemales, but I`m not really an expert
That instagram ho looks like some botched plastic surgery though.
Xavier Lopez
Nah, that's just bunda for you. Plastic butts are very round
Colton Ramirez
I mean the face.
Grayson Garcia
Unironically this. Android is the the Linux Kernel + whatever google shit, "Linux" is Linux kernel + whatever gahnoo shit ( depending on distros, there are distro which use absolutely no gnu shit as far as I know)
Joseph Martin
t-gata is an expression that brazilian shemale prostitutes use. It's not the same girl from though
Jack James
It's obviously the girl from See twitter.com

OP girl is white and only resembles

I'll run whatever OS she prefers.

Android's more like a superset of Linux. If you compile a program for ARM Linux, and statically link it, it will run on Android. By comparison, if you take an .apk, Desktop Linux won't know how to open it, and even if you made a program to be able to open it, you'd need to have all of Android's user space libraries.
In theory, you could make a program that behaves a little like Wine, and creates a compatibility layer for Android applications on Desktop Linux. In practice... it might not be as effective due to the number of Android applications which include native ARM code.
