I have been going strong for 34 days and 5 hours.
You can check by running inxi in the command line or checking the CPU in Mission Center
I turn it off every night or if I’m away for many hours, so about 10 minutes right now.
I do have a Raspberry Pi that’s been up 12 weeks, 5 days, 19 hours, 59 minutes. I believe there was a planned power outage when it was lasted turned off.
like 8 hours
I shut it down every day, start up times are fast enough that it doesn’t bother me
When I had big desktop and all, it was running for days/months. Now, I have a miniPC and I start it up Monday morning and shut if down Friday afternoon.
As of today about 10 years not counting the odd driver restart
There was a period where I was testing my laptop’s hibernation so I got uptime to around 30 days.
But now, The highest uptime I can reach is around 2-3 days if I forget to turn it off and leave it either plugged in or on a high battery so it lasts until the next day.
Thanks to Mint’s updates… about 10 minutes.
It’s off right now.
Also, inxi? Better use
uptime, that command is actually available on all systems and literally exists to check uptime.uptime -pfor a human-readable format. Here’s mine on my Hetzner VPS:
root@snapshot-199288474-ubuntu-16gb-hel1-1:~# uptime -p up 8 weeks, 6 days, 8 minutes
34 days without booting? Are you using a Debian system and don’t update often? You should, for security patches at least. I’m on an Arch based system and update every day. Sometimes there are updates that require a reboot, so all services are up to date. My system is often up for a few days, sometimes even for a week.
Small tip, logging out and in will have a semi clean environment without a full boot. That means the uptime won’t reset.
I have 4000 packages to update
That’s a lot. But that also means your system is not very secure, as you are missing ton of security patches for the packages.
uptime 18:58 up 145 days, 4:57, 1 users, load averages: 6.19 4.70 5.30My work laptop has been up for 26 days, 17:24. My primary server at home has been online for 42 days, 21:27. Personal laptop - 45 days, 20:51. The primary server of my exocortex has been online and crunching away for 278 days, 19:48.

seriously how do you guys all have Nvidia issues this is a gtx 1660 super
I was wondering that, too. I’ve got a pair of GTX 1660 Supers in Leandra running a simulation, and they’ve been crunching away for nine days now.
Doesn’t seem to matter what I do, the card simply refuses to go to sleep. And there’s no option to switch it off in the bios 😭
I can go weeks without rebooting if I want to Using a gtx 1080Ti with it. No idea why so many folks still have these big issues. Some minor issues sure.
Server is rebooted, as needed, for updates. I think it just got a kernel update two weeks ago, so it probably only has ~14 days of uptime.
My desktop and laptop are shut down when not in use. Leaving them on when not in use is pointless.
Never understood obsessions with “uptime”. If you have high numbers for uptime, you’re a bad sysadmin/maintainer of your hardware unless the appliance is purpose-built to be always up and air gapped.
Exactly. I have services running with staggered automated updates/reboots to keep things stable. Since at least one of them is always available, it’s like having no down-time but with actual stability and redundancy.
This is the way
I made Windows XP run for 40 days using a custom shell. Things got a bit weird, I ran defrag and memory optimization often.
I have a well-fenced server that I inherited 20 years ago and, but for power outages, has been in operation throughout. It survived a p2v but will not survive the coming v2v. #rhel4 #vmscare
