Run Handler messages in a background thread

Question

I want to run some Runnable in a background thread. I want to use Handler because it\'s convenient for delays. What I mean is

handler.post(runnable, delay);

You can set up a Looper in a background thread using Looper.prepare() and Looper.loop.
