Why does Linux have such a terrible sleep? (programming.dev)

In 8 hours it uses 20% of the battery. When Windows or Mac are put to sleep, the damn things can sleep for a week! This is the case with Linux on multiple laptops.

Is there some kind of manipulation going by ring -1 that detects Linux is running? Is Linux not respecting some procedure and kissing a step?

And how much of the world is run on Linux desktop specifically?

You want to compare a desktop environment to a fucking webserver that probably doesn’t even have a gpu or have any concept of Wayland? 🤣Jesus Christ gtfo with that shit. Actually, that’s hilarious. What a dumb fucking statement.

Ah yes, of course, the ignorance is strong. It doesn’t cost a lot to just look up the biggest Windows update failures. And it is so fun to be fully dependent on one company, to just wait until they hopefully fix things again. But I am glad yoi are happy with the “success” of Windows, while ignoring the fact that it is preinstalled on pretty much any machine. Funny enough that Microsoft puts extra effort into making Windows as fast and stable as Linux. But of course, they only do this because they are so fast and reliable in the first place.

By now, it feels like discussing politics with a MAGA. You go ahead and believe whatever you feel like, I couldn’t care less about it. So long.

So no point or response to your idiotic statement about the powering the world while we’re clearly talking desktops, followed up with assumptions?

I run arch catchy and bazzite. I’m just not delusional about ease of use. Your imagination is running wild.
