- I still find that 32-bit Linux support is still better than 64-bit
- When creating a development environment that targets a 32-bit solution (like Beaglebone), 64-bit is not really an option
Code: Select all
apt-cache search '' | grep -i '32bit' | wc -l
How can that be when 32 bit Linux support is falling away so fast? It's not going to get any better, for Mint or any other distro.brucechidester wrote: ⤴Mon Apr 05, 2021 10:28 am ... ]I still find that 32-bit Linux support is still better than 64-bit...

to show the architecture type, as well. A 64-Bit machine will show x86_64
, for example.I wouldn't be so "shocked"...Win 10 came out in 2015 when everyone was still supporting 32 bit...im willing to bet that their new Win 11 doesn't support 32 bit whatsoever...DAMIENI was shocked to find out Windows10 ISOs run in 32 bit mode! That is weird to me...especially with Linux distros not following suit...
I wonder when 128bit applications will finally become a thing xDDAMIEN1307 wrote: ⤴Thu Jul 01, 2021 7:30 pmI wouldn't be so "shocked"...Win 10 came out in 2015 when everyone was still supporting 32 bit...im willing to bet that their new Win 11 doesn't support 32 bit whatsoever...DAMIENI was shocked to find out Windows10 ISOs run in 32 bit mode!
