Some new laptops cannot actually fully suspend to ram. It sounds crazy but I had this issue even after installing Linux on a laptop. It’s a hardware limitation.

- wkat4242 2y agoThey don't. Only cellular connectivity. Most airlines even offer WiFi now

- p_l 2y agoAirplane mode is still a thing.
- p_l 2y agoIt's not sneaking in OS updates, it's faster wake-up mainly. Combined with properly prepared HW taking less power in modern standby than in S3, but it requires hardware/firmware/driver/userland confluence to work well
