Hey guys,

Check it out!

If you're looking for something fun to do, download Termux (main site), a Linux terminal for your android devices. Download it to your phone or tablet and turn them into a Linux computer. It's free, it's fun and it's got nothing to do with being a programming expert.

I can't remember when, who or where, but a lady told me that she thought Linux is only for people who are programmers or doing computer science or whatever. She's actually right. I use to work in an oil company doing data backups and they use the UNIX (Wikipedia) system.

I didn't realize it then but using and playing in the Linux (Wikipedia) terminal is actually fun even for the non-techies. There are many cool apps, tools, and games that you can install and play directly from the terminal itself. That's why Termux is great for mobile phones and tablets.

You can be sitting down anywhere in the world right now and play with the Termux terminal. For more information on Termux, visit their wiki page here. Yes, the apps and games might not be fancy with the latest 3D graphics or sound but like they say, old is gold.

I'm not even sure why, but I like looking at the old ASCII (Wikipedia) computer screen. Read up on ASCII art here (Wikipedia). I remember the late 90s in the chatting room where they used to display all these computer arts. Am still amazed till today.

Funny that everyone is talking about the latest Xbox series X or PS5 but, although I'm interested in the latest technology, I still value all these old stuff. That's why I like Termux so much. Being able to play or do stuff on the terminal right on your phone is super cool!

I actually wasn't spending much time on my phone for a while. Especially, after I bought my Nintendo Switch lite. I was happy learning Python and SmileBASIC 4 to play with codes and creating my own app or games. SmileBASIC even has a terminal that I can play with.

After I discovered Termux, I'm also starting to spend more time again with my phone. I like searching through Google looking for tips and things that I can do from the terminal (besides hacking). That's where I found this website. Love the 'cowsay' command and decide to do a video.

If you didn't know Samsung used to have the Linux on Dex. Read up my post on it here. Unlike Termux, it's a full Ubuntu distro with a desktop graphical user interface. To use it, you'll have to connect your phone to the monitor. Turning your phone into a Linux computer.

Linux on Dex is a full desktop while Termux is like WSL aka Windows Subsystem for Linux. After using WSL that's how I realize Termux is a better way for the mobile phone. It's small in size and you can quickly open it to do your things right on the phone itself.



The great thing is that you don't have to switch on your computer or link up your phone to a desktop or monitor. That's how easy and quick it is to use the Termux terminal. If there's no wifi, you can use a data connection without worrying about overusing your data package. With Termux, the world is your oyster!
