TranscriptA meme from Advengers: Endgame of someone saying "You can rest now." to Tony Stark. It has the caption "When IT visits your site and closes your 3654 tabs and reboots your computer for the first time in 58 weeks."

I use the browser extension 'auto tab discard', have 16GB RAM (32GB on my desktop) and my uptime is usually several months before I reboot for a kernel update, but I can usually go at least half a year without any issues. I think I'm literally more likely to accidentally press my deskop's power button than to have any kind of software issue that forces me to reboot.

I do turn it off via hibernation, though. I'm not an Umweltsau.
