An offline English dictionary app with a quick search widget
If you want the app to be open sourced and work offline try Aard 2. I personally prefer Dictionary - Word Web (not open sourced), but has a widget, decent interface and works offline. Can be found on the playstore.

How would you work effectively with an extremely slow 56Kbps connection?
Use a tool like Internet-in-a-box and keep a "local" version of tons of very useful stuff like Wikipedia and Maps.

Build a pocket sized touch computer for cheap!
IMO the best use case is https://internet-in-a-box.org/. You download a bunch of stuff like Wikipedia, videos, books, etc, and any device with WiFi can access them. Much better than relying on something like a laptop or old phone with all of these resources on them. Get a couple of Raspberry Pi's and some SD cards and you can clone them all and have lots of backups. They are small and use little power so you can hide them in places that can't easily be found.

I just bought the only physical encyclopedia still in print, and I regret nothing
this is awesome, but for those of us that don't feel like spending ~$1200... may I suggest internet in a box

An argument for why we need to start hoarding books and textbooks immediately.
Not a hard copy, but unless you’re worried about something destroying all electronics, you can make an offline library with Internet in a box.
