Andrew; I'll have to look into LineageOS. Still, a gentoo based, |
34 |
portable stack for Arm and Snapdragon and other processors, are |
35 |
straightforward with gentoo sources. Having multiple stack (cell-OS |
36 |
buildouts) to run from via controlled semantics, is a good idea, imho. |
37 |
|
38 |
Switching between several different embedded OSes on a cell phone, is an |
39 |
intriguing idea. THANKS for that IDEA. Multiboot cell phones; totally |
40 |
awesome ? |

5G is paramount for me. Most are not aware, but 5G basically allows for |
44 |
any person in good standing legally, to act as a pseudo-carrier, retail |
45 |
or wholesale or free or (?). The most awesome features of 5G are not |
46 |
being discuss publically, because there are many entrepreneurial |
47 |
actions centric to 5G. 5G will be bigger than the current carrier/gov |
48 |
based internet, more secure, and controlled by the equipment (that means |
49 |
you and me) owner/operators. 5G is very security oriented, both in the |
50 |
communications domain and the RF domain. |

One new method of security is to use 'multi-path' over Rf links, that |
54 |
are not regular (non-recurrent). The communications algorithms, |
55 |
mathematically, are known as "walk-once" basically no repeated patterns. |
56 |
|
57 |
|
58 |
That alone is but one "game_changer" baked into 5G. I just think Gentoo |
59 |
needs to be on the 'forefront' of this communications revolution; hth. |
