Hello There, I've noticed the uptime command on my mac was reporting an incorrect number of days (18801 instead of 37). The uptime command is from brew originally.
which -a uptime /usr/local/opt/coreutils/libexec/gnubin/uptime /usr/bin/uptime and I could reproduce with a compiled version of coreutils : cd /tmp curl -L https://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/coreutils/coreutils-8.32.tar.xz | tar -x cd coreutils-8.32 ./configure --prefix=/tmp/coreutils --without-gmp --without-selinux make install /tmp/coreutils/bin/uptime $ /tmp/coreutils/bin/uptime 17:21:21 up 18801 days 14:37, 3 users, load average: 2.37, 2.68, 2.67 The native uptime command from OSx seems to work : $ /usr/bin/uptime 17:28 up 37 days, 7:43, 3 users, load averages: 2.71 2.44 2.50 current date is correct : $ date Wed Jun 23 17:36:51 CEST 2021 $ uname -a Darwin ThomasManson 20.4.0 Darwin Kernel Version 20.4.0: Thu Apr 22 21:46:47 PDT 2021; root:xnu-7195.101.2~1/RELEASE_X86_64 x86_64 i386 MacBookPro16,1 Darwin $ /tmp/coreutils/bin/uptime --version uptime (GNU coreutils) 8.32 Copyright (C) 2020 Free Software Foundation, Inc.
