All you sophisticated folks with your dinky commands... I just click restart to update whenever Daddy Gated says so. So much easier...

Have you ever tried to challenge the system and see what happens if you don't click restart?

Yes, random forced reboot at an extremely inconvenient time and an excruciatingly slow "Windows is installing updates" screen.

I've never had that with my work laptop. If I've got programs open that require close prompts, it won't even reboot when it's been idle. Eventually IT will lock it down unless I update though.

No big deal either way. You should be restarting at least weekly with any OS.

Plus, at least with Ubuntu, kernel updates happen much more frequently than Windows updates and require a restart to take effect. The only difference is you can ignore them, which is almost never a good idea.

Uh my laptop has been running for 35 days (according to neofetch) and my server PC (which is just a tower PC I repurposed as a server) has been running for 288 days.

So you're telling us your server is unpatched and full of security holes. Cool, man
