From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Now we need a package called alcohol that makes your laptop go to sleep but still drains its battery
So, whatever Windows 11 does on my work laptop when I tell it to standby and it shuts off the screen but proceeds to spin the fans to 100% continuously?
"Just got to spin through a few trillion instructions to get things sorted before we go to standby! Won't be a minute!"
oh I love that, especially in the middle of the night
Sleep State S5: alcohol induces intermittent sleep where the monitor keeps coming on and the turning off for indeterminate amounts of time during the night.
Then when the computer wakes up the mouse is all wonky for the first few minutes
And the liquid cooling has leaked all over the desk.
