            println!("uptime: {} seconds", uptime.as_secs_f64());
        }
        Err(err) => {
            eprintln!("uptime: {}", err);

uptime-rs's Issues

counter is zero, but loadavg is not.

Can we print the uptime like below

2 Days 23 Hours 24 Minutes 55 Seconds

Can we use pure rust?

I noticed we are using some other packages to get the uptime. This might be unnecessary as we can still use pure rust to do it for example on Linux we can read /proc/uptime directly and the output should be something like this

# in seconds
350735.47 234388.90

The windows crate is about 12MB in size!
What about using a solution that goes like this

let child = Command::new("systeminfo").output()?.stdout;
let output = String::from_utf8(child)?;
// ... extract the uptime from the output
```
