I have been going strong for 34 days and 5 hours.
You can check by running inxi in the command line or checking the CPU in Mission Center
i turn my pc off when im not using it to save power; i thought this was normal.
0 hours.
It is currently off because I don’t leave it running overnight when I am not using it.
It’s off right now.
Also, inxi? Better use
uptime, that command is actually available on all systems and literally exists to check uptime.I only restart for kernel updates. I put my PC to sleep when I’m not using it.
This would be me, except the wife says it’s “wasting energy.” And rather than argue with her I’ve decided that in an effort for the dream of “happy wife, happy life” I’ll just deal with sub 1min boot time
You might be able to turn off sleep indication (blinking power led) in bios btw:)
…sunovabetch…I literally just facepalmed. Feel dumb for not having even considered looking into if I could do that. Well…guess papa has a weekend project…
Yeah but then you’d be lying to your wife in order to save 1 minute of boot time… Doesn’t seem worth it.
…damn you…this is also true.
Y’all it takes like 15 seconds to boot from an SSD why are you leaving your computers on?
Because they’re processing data all the time? They’re doing work?
Mm, fair if you are running some task while you’re not “actively” using the PC. Although given the general sentiment of people in the replies, the leading reason is “I’m lazy” or “its convenient”.
Everybody uses computers for different things.
No arguments here
