I updated last night. I should mention that despite these
vulnerabilities being serious, Windows didn't think of informing me
about the updates at all. I had to manually press "Check for Updates"
after reading the article, and they were _then_ provided to me. That
honestly seems very counterproductive.

Linux can only wet dream of such small numbers.

Patches accepted per day per month (daily x 30)
LTS kernel 6 to 8 180 to 240
normal kernel 10 to 15 300 to 450

https://source.android.com/docs/core/architecture/kernel/releases

Google's 'experimental' Generative AI says "A stable Linux kernel can
receive as many as 25 patches per day."

But I have a feeling "Fixes, patches, updates, and changes" are used
interchangeably by tech writers and AI models.

> Looking at you, DFS.

Then you should see I'm noticeably trimmer. I lost 12 lbs in the first
7 days of October. I'll write a longer post about it, to help inspire
my fellow fatasses Relf and Bloaty.

We have to admit that of the things Linux patched during that time, none
of them are likely to have been as serious as the issues Windows just
fixed. Granted, Windows is attacked a lot more

You've been listening to too many GuhNoo liars.

And yet when's the last time you heard of a Windows malware outbreak?

Do I look like a bruised, bulimic Chris Ahlstrom being scolded and
smacked around by my strong wife?
