‘hybrid sleep’ does write the hibernate file before going into ‘sleep mode’. if you have an older system or one that doesn’t use ‘modern standby’ and you have an ssd, you might want to double-check that setting in your power scheme advanced settings.

the culprit is actually probably “fast startup” which writes a hibernate file every shutdown. every “normal” ‘shutdown’… close programs, logoff, hibernate, power off. this feature is unnecessary on systems with ssd but it continues to be enabled by default. it was created in the days of old to make hdd systems appear to boot up faster by not actually starting up windows on every power on.

hibernate isn’t enabled by default.

the other writer of hibernate data, hybrid sleep, doesn’t even exist on a newer system that uses ‘modern standby’… but is enabled by default on desktops that do not.

damn. they beat me to it. i was gonna make a gif of the toilets at the office flushing green to blue.

of course gas prices are ‘volatile’ compared to electric. one is hardly regulated, is based on the whims of the wealthy and producers, affected by regional ‘issues’ on the other side of the planet… while the other is regulated in most parts of the u.s.

my per kwh rate has rarely strayed more than a half cent higher or lower than it was in 2000 and is nearly the same now as it was then (public utility and hydro). meanwhile, gas prices the last 20 years look like a sharpie scribble.

double-down and do something even more stupid. it’s what they do.

good thing the planet spins around and goes around on its own, because they’d find a way to fuck that up, too.

my boss always does this now, she learned her lesson ‘the hard way’ about third-party sites years ago.

do not get a vizio. that’s walmart trash now.

can those be “set up properly” without having to use a wm or google account?

am still an Android engineer, but all my TV systems are Apple TV. This should tell you everything.

i run into other cases like that… ‘i work on x but use y instead’.

hell, i work in and on windows shit and “smart” devices, but i run linux and have a flip phone.

very similar to my dietpi running on a low-power sff, except i use the hotspot app in dietpi and leave the guest ssid on the main router for stuff i dont want going through the pihole|adguard home (but don’t want on the main network)

that’s a nice idea, but when they catch-on it probably wouldn’t survive six months before breaking changes are implemented on the backend somewhere.

pi or old pc/laptop, maybe? with remote control or mini wireless kb/mouse (what i use, one with trackpad integrated) or one of these remote control sized ones?

$22 billion to get the maga propaganda machine front-and-center on more screens than cable tv ever did, and timing is just right to get it all going in time for 2028.

“autopilot” shouldn’t even be used on a narrow residential street like that.

so now they’re gonna be buying more hardware, too, so they can run their own models instead.

great.

they’re also getting the benefits of solar, despite voting for the moron nixing renewables while peddling coal and oil.

States won by President Donald Trump in the 2024 presidential election accounted for 74% of all solar capacity installed in the first quarter

you must’a made the mistake of finishing something early or showing-off your ‘optimizations’

i’ll take the excel, but i’m making some scripts to automate some shit so i can screw around at least half the time

from what i know about ‘gname’ is that they’re popular with scammers and other bad actors. i would steer clear of them, even if they are ‘free’.

more than i ever got out of mine.
