[ale] uptime

[ale-at-ale.org at unpopularminds.org (Don Lachlan)]

My home workstation:

 19:40:26 up 390 days, 19:08, 18 users,  load average: 1.14, 1.21, 1.24

That was when I completely replaced my workstation. The previous
incarnation had been up ~1200 or so days with 2 uptime wrap-arounds.
Why not reboot it? I didn't want to shut down all my applications.

PID  PPID   RSS    VSZ     TIME     ELAPSED COMMAND
2533  2507  1580  11456 05:12:32 390-19:07:15 /usr/bin/fluxbox

Linux can keep running forever if you let it, just patch your
applications and lock down your ports.
