Why is sleep so hard for laptops? (lemmy.world)

And it's crap across the OSes. On Linux laptops don't wake up from sleep, on Windows they keep waking up when nobody asks for it.

In our home office room there's three laptops. My private one running Fedora, my work PC that sadly runs Windows and my wife's laptop also running Windows.

My work laptop and my wife's laptop keep waking up wasting electricity, and my private laptop needs a hard reset to wake it up every second time.

That feature should be stupid simple, yet it doesn't work across the board.

Rant over.

I remember that. It was so cool.

I really miss when Apple made devices that had those awesome little touches. I still think Apple devices are pretty great, but they used to be better.

Same here. The hardware is still great but there’s not as much soul in the designs.
