<sigh> I used to be one of those sysadmins, and the short answer is appropriate risk management, better network controls a locked down OS and immediate action to push out the patches for serious issues.

I quite frankly detest M$ but keeping your pc patched isn’t propaganda.

If you know enough to manage the risk (including proper network firewalls and good internet hygiene) then sure, keep going for a while. Zero days aren’t daily, they’re a handful per year.

On the other hand if you have no clue about ITSec then you genuinely need to upgrade asap because you’re metaphorically running around with your genitals exposed.

Your comment leads me to suggest you probably dont have the skills to do an appropriate risk assessment.

But you do you. I’m not your Dad
