It usually has something to do with programming. Again, most cases, the versions in the packages included in your garden variety stable distros should cover most use cases.
However, once in a while one would encounter the need of using the cutting edge features on certain compiler or interpreter. Rust comes to mind. I know Python introduced some features that could drastically alter workflow (e.g. switch statement). NodeJS is another one known to be lagging behind from time to time.
In other cases, hardware support might be taken to consideration, especially for newer machines. However, with Mint including the optional newer kernel, it shouldn’t be a problem.
Because for most use cases, Mint works flawlessly. It changes little from time to time. It has all the drivers to get started with a wide range of common hardware. It has all the codecs to play common media formats.
Of course if the package update is too slow, it’s not for you, but then unlike you, most people don’t need the latest and greatest. They just need something that works from the get-go with predictable behavior.
She’s literally family the moment you marry her, bro…
Right… but I was asking about the technical method itself.
I’m pretty sure they’d check your blood before you proceed.
Interesting… How is it risky?
These days, AFAIK network boot is done thru initramfs. It loads rootfs in most cases I’ve seen tho.
What machine do you have for this?
I’ll tell you what’s practical. If pirates start charging me for stuff, and go thru all the hassle making their stuff difficult to copy, I’d rather just buy the original thru official channels.
Fair. It’d still be nice to have upgradeable RAM, tho.
If they come up with some way to make it as hard as possible for the buyers to share these cracked games among them, they could make a lot of money with this.
This kind of thinking is the bane of humanity.
I do get where they’re coming from with Lua. With luci (the web interface), Lua must be installed as it’s a requirement. However, it might be the stripped down version as well (AFAIK). Also, if you know bash & coreutils already, it might be counterproductive to have to learn something new.
I’m just glad that I could help. It’s not fun to get stuck in such technical roadblock.
Yeah I hear you. While I personally never fell like it’s that severe of functional limitations, I am aware on how stripped down busybox is. I’m also aware that some systems lives off 4MiB of flash and 32MiB of memory, so if you ask that question, you might get the answer “yes, it is necessary”.
Meanwhile, if you have the luxury to install bash (or other full-featured shell), then that’s one option to consider. You seem lime you’re familiar with UNIX shell, and Lua is a whole new language. The Lua interpreter that comes by default might be stripped down as well anyway.
Is it better than PinePhone?
I got OpenWRT on my home router and I’ve never had this issue. I guess I just never have that advanced of a use case for its command line.
You’re also free to install bash (or other sh) if space allows.
Hey, A2 would do!
I feel like you’re doing something wrong if you live in a non English country and never get exposed to the local language.

I say we fucked up the moment we existed.
Also, while we’re on the invasion topic: invading Ukraine.
Isn’t that the whole point?
