SwiftOnSecurity on Twitter made the point ages ago that a year of uptime means that you've (hopefully!) applied a year's worth of patches, security fixes, and configuration changes but don't actually know if the system can come back up if+when it does reboot for any reason in your control or outside it. It's stuck with me.

Very good point! I must confess this server had all mayor updates except the Kernell ones.
