I keep coming across these mostly forgotten machines in my personal infra, just now I finally solved the question of "where are all of those IRC bots I have actually running"

Downside, it's one of _those_ machines with a 3.5~ year uptime

Tasks: 79, 64 thr; 1 running
Load average: 0.00 0.06 0.02 
Uptime: 1263 days(!), 10:55:45

Pouring one out for this one, as it's about to reach end of life in the interests of having less machines running to look after

@manawyrm I think those were already long dead!

When I logged into just before killing the box I did this:

root@dn42:/# wg | grep handshake
  latest handshake: 3 years, 40 days, 1 hour, 16 minutes, 28 seconds ago
  latest handshake: 80 days, 6 hours, 4 seconds ago
  latest handshake: 51 seconds ago
  latest handshake: 2 years, 14 days, 4 hours, 34 minutes, 45 seconds ago
  latest handshake: 20 seconds ago
  latest handshake: 292 days, 14 minutes, 32 seconds ago
