From the "I have no idea wtf this guy is talking about" files, I just found out about a really cool project somebody's maintaining called Box86 - it allows you to run x86-based programs on devices running ARM processors. Essentially, it opens up doors to run PC-based software on cell phones. It's gonna be a bit more of a process for me because my phone is running a 64-bit processor, so I'll have to download 32-bit equivalents of Termux etc... but yeah. Hoping work quiets down soon so I can tinker with this a bit. There's a guide here that goes over how to install it: https://gxmersam.blogspot.com/p/box86-wine-on-android-no-root.html The project itself is available here: https://github.com/ptitSeb/box86 They also have Box64 for 64-based stuff, but it's strict 64-bit only, you can't run 32-bit stuff inside of it.

Does it works the other way? I mean, can I use it to run cell phone-based software on PC?
