Fucking hell my Chromebook is a confusing little cunt...

I use the Samsung Chromebook plus with a 64 bit based ARM CPU but the chromeOS installation is 32 bit... Buuuuuut it will prefer 64 bit android applications and runs the Linux container at 64 bit!

How does that even fucking work?!?!

(Yes I know Google blah blah, privacy blah, your opinion is noted and ignored ¯\_(ツ)_/¯)

    It is actually running 64 bit cros.

    You just are looking at the wrong thing.

    Install the cog app from the chrome store. It should say x64

    @ewpratten Alternatively, it's giving the wrapper direct CPU/RAM access.

    @Parzi possibly. But there are x64 and arm64 builds of cross (I'm running one) so I don't see why it would appear to be 32 bit

    @ewpratten has Google ever made sense? Hell, have OEM device makers ever made sense?

    No.

    Never happened!
