    It enables automatic security updates. You could also enable automatic updates for all, not just security. Basically have the system run the meme commands for you.

      That’s interesting, I didn’t know this can be configured in one line. When I searched how to configure unattended-upgrades myself I only found long solutions.

        I’m sure there are longer solutions as well. This is straight up from the Ubuntu wiki. If you want to configure it differently, e.g. do all updates, not just security, you probably have to change some more vars in the apt config files.
