The System76 Lemur Pro is light, thin, repairable, and upgradeable. It’s the best Linux laptop we’ve tested.

    Modern standby really took things backward for x86 laptops

        IIRC it’s something about not actually going to S3 sleep to keep stuff like networking alive

        Your CPU never actually sleeps, it stays in S0 (on). The CPU is still active and doing things, but it’s in a “low power state”.

        In quotes because it’s not low power at all. On one of my laptops S0 standby gets worse battery life than just actually being on.

      Yeah I mean I get C-states for things that idle a lot, like homeservers, but i still don’t see the reasoning for outright replacing traditional suspend on computers. Now you have to worry if some random pcie device is going to up your consumption by 5 watts during suspension. Well, at least that’s only a big issue on laptops.

      Sorry for rambling
