Software updates

Update your software on all your platforms regularly

This is the golden rule.

We often do it in a work environment and get paid for that

We do it for ourselves because it is good for our devices.

We are careful doing it on our devices which can be bricked remotely by the factory (TV's treadmills trainers)

We install piehole and other ad blackholes to protect our devices from pesky ads

There are so many repositories to follow

Auto updates are stupid, IMHO, even for workstations

On servers with PHP, we need manual granular tested updates, if we used PHP (old version) because we are slow to implement PHP (new major version)

Manual updates can be a pain

What can happen?

We forget one or two full manual updates

I've just had to do this

$ sudo ./Ventoy2Disk.sh -g -u /dev/sdx

  Ventoy: 1.1.17  x86_64
  longpanda admin@ventoy.net
  https://www.ventoy.net

Upgrade operation is safe, all the data in the 1st partition (iso files and other) will be unchanged!

Update Ventoy 1.1.12 ===> 1.1.17 Continue? (y/n) y
esp partition processing ...
update esp partition attribute

Update Ventoy on /dev/sdc successfully finished.

Did I forget something else?

Probably. Is it critical?

Lets see

$ ~/bin/yt-dlp -U Current version: stable@2026.07.04 from yt-dlp/yt-dlp Latest version: stable@2026.08.19 from yt-dlp/yt-dlp Current Build Hash: 495be29ff4d9d4e9be7eabdfef225221e5d5282e77f2f505abc6dca80349f3fd Updating to stable@2026.08.19 from yt-dlp/yt-dlp ... Updated yt-dlp to stable@2026.08.19 from yt-dlp/yt-dlp

It was not critical, but important none the less

Happy updating!
