I don't feel like keeping my tower pc running more than necessary. When I don't use it for hours, I usually turn it off. At least when I go to bed I turn it off. Next day I turn it on again. Like a normal person. I don't see a need to save 1 minute or so, by keeping it running.
- Zecc 4mo agoSame here. But I hibernate it, which defeats the purpose.
- 14 4mo agoEven with the increase in bloat on windows once I moved to an SSD the boot time went down to like 20 seconds. Never felt the need to do anything other than shut down if I was going to be away for more than a few minutes.
- GoblinSlayer 4mo agoWindows doesn't shut down by default.

- bcraven 4mo agoI'm astonished I had to wade through so many other replies to find this one. I had never considered I might be doing things abnormally when I turned my machine off at the end of the day. If nothing else, think of the power usage!
- noir_lord 4mo agoSame plus I dual boot. It's less than 20 seconds to a usable desktop even on windows, some optimizations aren't worth the hassle.
