Words matter in this case.
The fact that they are pushing S3 as "Linux Sleep" or "Legacy Sleep" and S0ix as "modern sleep" is absolutely not innocent from a marketing perspective.
We ought to reverse Uno this non-sense. Perhaps the Linux Foundation and all the distro development teams out there should start calling S3 _True_Sleep_™ in all their official communication.

- Izkata 2y agoI swear I remember Microsoft adding "sleep" and calling it such in some version of Windows because "it's new and different from 'suspend'", then later other systems started using the term "sleep" instead of "suspend" without actually changing anything.
