The CPU in these tablets are 64-bit, so it’s weird that the bootloader only works with 32-bit EFI loaders. The good thing is that we can use a 64-bit version of Linux paired with the 32-bit GRUB EFI loader. In Ubuntu 23.10 and the upcoming Ubuntu…

Hi everyone, Today, I spent some time in the morning doing some cable management to the area where I have my mining tablets: Those tablets are contributing to distributed computing projects that runs using the Berkeley Open Infrastructure for Network Computing software, which is also available for Android devices, so my Android tablets are currently contributing to the yoyo@home project and to World Community Grid if there’s no yoyo tasks available for them. You can see I made use of…

Hi everyone, In this video, I will be unboxing the HP Stream 7 tablet. This tablet comes with an Intel Atom Z3735G @ 1.33Ghz, 1GB of RAM, 32GB of eMMC storage, Wifi/Bluetooth connectivity, and initially comes with Windows 8.1. The tablet itself is actually good for lightweight tasks, however, the 1GB of RAM is pretty much the limiting factor. Do you have this tablet? How does it work for you? Let me know in the comments.
