And probably a lot of that is quickly checking something that you're only doing directly on the machine for convenience. Something that you might otherwise do on the system you're ssh'ing from, or on a phone/etc which avoids the need to run any browser on what is potentially a sensitive server. And the remainder for things like lynx -dump in scripts where it can easily be pkg_add'ed if needed. (hopefully these will run as a relatively unprivileged user). > for the rest (the dangerous horrid scary world...) there are X clients > with Firefox. Who's going to warez sites with lynx? You've never heard of webservers on technical topics being attacked and serving malicious content?
