Don't you need to reboot after kernel updates?

This particular machine is a mac mini. Otherwise, I have a lot of machines. I just don't get around to updating and rebooting them that often.

I very rarely use the mac mini. Basically just for testing. So at some point, it got to a crazy uptime and now I'm purposely trying to see how long I can go haha.

In theory the battery in UPS will eventually need to be replaced. Otherwise I don't see it ever losing power given that I have a generator
