Wouldn't running uptime be quicker than your stat command pipeline?

stat command gets the detail of when the OS was installed on the machine. uptime doesn't give that. I wanted to say that I have been using the same development machine at work for 4.5 years. "running" was not the right word for it, obviously.
Makes sense, thanks.
