IDK, but Microsoft seems to be now what Google was a many many years ago: a company creating tech I like to use such as Bing, Edge, Windows Terminal, VSCode, etc. Their Surface hardware is nice too (even if I prefer thinkpads) Oh and they&#

Disable S0 idle to get true S3 sleep or at least create a script to disable wifi and wakeup timers before entering sleep cf https://csdvrx.github.io/ My battery drops by more or less 0.5%/h so a 10h sleep = 5% drop.
