Distros take care of the kernel, either ship LTS releases or do the backports themselves. Only rolling release people run that kernel.

So this post is literally only useful for the 4 LFS users that now need to recompile their kernels.

You never have to update if you never connect to the internet.

Stuxnet would like a chat with you

Weren't are nukes controlled by IBM series/1 systems and floppy discs until 2019. They said they upgraded to a highly secure solid state system. They might be still using those computers for some parts of the system because “You can't hack something that doesn't have an IP address. It's a very unique system — it is old and it is very good.”

I like to see what's in the newer kernels and know to expect an update that might break my dkms modules in the near future
