What is the easiest way to replace a cellphone with a mini laptop [closed]












0















Given the security concerns that seem to surround modern cellphones in general and Android phones in particular, Ḯ'm considering to move away from using a cellphone and replacing its most important functionality with Free Software products that would run on a mini laptop. I wonder if other people have already been doing this and if there exists guides for doing this easily. My current plan is to get a laptop with an integrated 4G router or with a separate laptop and a 4G hotspot. There obviously exists quite a lot of functionality in a smart phone whereby I believe that compromises need to be made in other fronts too apart from the obvious compactness issue which I will simply have to tolerate for now.

    This seems like a discussion and opinion topic, unrelated to Ubuntu support. If you are just discovering security concerns about mobile devices, you're about a decade behind.

  • Not sure what "mini laptop" is, but you can buy tablets that accept SIM cards and their "footprint" is about 8" to 12" on average.

I think the gpd pocket 2 may be worth looking at. Here's a video review (with windows though) and here's a linux compatibility overview. There's also this optimized ubuntu mate version.

            Quarter-circle Tiles

            Image
            up vote 0 down vote favorite I have $99$ identical square tiles, each with a quarter-circle drawn on it like this: [asy] size(1.5cm); draw(Arc((2,0),1,90,180),red+1); draw((0,0)--(2,0)--(2,2)--(0,2)--(0,0)); [/asy] When I arrange the tiles in a $9times 11$ rectangular grid, each with a random orientation, what is the expected value of the number of full circles I form? I think this problem has to do with finding the chance any given 2x2 square has a circle, but I can't find it. expected-value share | cite | improve this question asked Nov 20 at 15:03 6minecraftninja 1 2

            build a pushdown automaton that recognizes the reverse language of a given pushdown automaton?

            Image
            0 I think it's similiar to NFAs. I replace the finite states of the given automaton for start-states for my new automaton. I do it with $epsilon$ -transition from the start state to the actual finite states of the given automaton. The start state of the given automaton will be my accepting(finite) state of my new one. All transitions will be reversed of course to recognize the reversed word. But how do I have to change the stack of the pushdown automaton? That's tricky. formal-languages automata context-free-grammar share | cite | improve this question edited Nov 29 '18 at 14:20 joee
