    They have and that is why I don’t do them any more. Happened a few months ago in fact. Updated one of the Debian servers for one of webapps we have running (a black box piece of shit VM that’s stuck in 2010 I think)… suddenly, the app in the VM doesn’t work. The VM does start, but the app doesn’t work, just throws a 404. Why? Beats me, don’t have time to troubleshoot. Roll back a snapshot, everything works again. Conclusion, don’t update that.

    See, around here, you don’t keep your job by messing around with things that already work. They work, period, why did even feel the need to mess with that 🤨. If that’s management’s view on security, fine, so be it 🤷.

    I still file reports on things not being up to date, just so that if shit hits the fan, I’m not the one taking the fall for it.
