Run Android in QEMU

I recently found some fascinating little games in f-droid, and I wanted to set them up on my desktop. I've tried virtualizing Android before, but this time I got it going! This is basically going to be ripping off Reference 1 entirely.

Fetch the android-x86 iso: https://www.android-x86.org/.

Use virt-manager to install a new vm and use the downloaded iso. That was basically it. I customized the installation, and installed f-droid and installed the little games I wanted to play!
