updates don’t matter. Security doesn’t matter. You can just tell your computer to never update anything, and it’ll be the same for a decade. You can live in your little bubble.

You are free to do what you want, but do not give out advice like this to others. Security issues pop up constantly and not updating leaves you vulnerable to them.

For the room: If you want to stay on your unpatched machine, don't plug it into the internet. Otherwise, use an OS that is currently receiving security updates.
