alt Hacker News> Also standby actually works.
That's a Windows issue. The recent active sleep (or whatever it's called) has been buggy across basically all hardware.

Modern Standby https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-hardware/design/de...
Yes it's shit. I have a work laptop that have all sorts of problems. I would leave work and return the next morning to find that the laptop had a bluescreen and rebooted. Many times. So IT disabled modern standby. (Now it takes almost as long to boot as a cold start, but at least I don't lose my work.)
Although I have a personal laptop at home that seems to do fine. Still, that's nowhere as responsive as "instant on" experience as you would find on a Macbook. Of course, Microsoft lied again.
omg is this a thing? i thought i was dumb or something.
i bought an expensive 240hz qd oled and i kept coming into my office with the damn thing on without the screensaver, just burning in after having left it asleep.
i’m so paranoid i just turn the whole computer off now.
