I remember daily driving Gentoo unstable in the early 2000’s on my rig in college. It was like trying to beat a Dark Souls boss every time I wanted to do an update.

Yeah. Both with external monitors and with just the laptop unplugged.

I don’t care about hibernate, sleep, or fast startup. The main issue I experience is that when I click shutdown the computer does not ever go into a sleep/off state. It looks like it’s trying to shutdown, but ends up staying at the lock screen and I have to hold the power button down to kill the power. It’s been a fairly consistent issue I’ve had across three machines over at least 6 years. I only have the issue on my work machine now because I addressed it on my machines by installing Linux.
Wouldn’t companies also be able to do it on any WiFi device, like a phone or a smart watch?
