"Shutting down your computer when you stop using it is wrong because... BECAUSE IT JUST IS OKAY"
>>108686457>he doesnt know whyyou dont deserve to know why. you disgust me
some of our computers do automated tasks while we're away, unlike niggers that just jabber on twitter and grindr
>>108686457If you use windows your computer isn't even shutting down
>>108686457No idea what you are talking about. Pretty sure any device with non ECC RAM should be turned off daily, at least weekly. But you would not want to do it many times per day if you have an HDD, which is increasingly rare this days.>>108686471They do nothing and idle, no idea where you got that from. All sorts of maintenance is already figured, SSDs trim, updates load in the background etc.
>>108686457Shutting down you PC is only bad if you use W10/11 and got Fast-Boot Enabled, which is on my default btw, and you should go turn it off if you're sitll on Windows for whatever reason.
>>108686582Why is Fast Boot bad?
>>108686591fastboot is one of those things that is responsible for a lot of crashes and general fuckery. it's one of the first things I disable along with the "sysmain" superfetch shit and fontcache.
>>108686565>says the nigger jabberer
>>108686565>Pretty sure any device with non ECC RAM should be turned off daily,What the fuck is this.
ackshully turning your computer on from cold causes the most amount of stress to the motherboard, the power supply, and all components.it wears them out quicker, thus lowering the life expectancy of your PC.you should refrain from doing that.
>>108686764what if im in a hot climate and the pc isnt necessarily cold when i boot it
>>108687040its still cold. ever if your climate is 40C thats still cold in the world of electronics
>>108686457I shut down my computer when I stop using it. Once every couple months.
>>108686642RAM with error correction. Computer being on for a long time accumulates errors in RAM. Literally flipped bits grow by an hour. For a gayming machine it matters not, but any server would be exclusively on ECC RAM.
>>108686591fast boot silently replaces shutdown button with hybrid sleep button, meaning you get electrical shutdown but logical it's close to hybernate and all lingering bugs keep piling up, updates and group policies do not apply, caches do not flush etc.
>>108687163NTA, but I use 'nigger'/'nigga' as well but it's mostly because it's such a powerful word that feels good to use. Like saying 'kanker' in Dutch
>>108687197I actually had more harsh reaction socially for saying "kanker" than I've had for saying "neger" in public setting. I use both casually from time to time and only kanker has gotten me in trouble at work before.
>>108686543powercfg /hibernate off
>>108686565>They do nothing and idle, no idea where you got that from. He's probably talking about DLing and seeding porno
>>108686457It is because people use your pc for crypto mining while you sleep. Microsoft, google and apple also steal child porn directly from children, it gets saved on onedrive, and they store it in data-servers in India, where pajeets look at it, cartoonify it, and posts it on /b/. You think what they want you to think.
>>108687605>Microsoft, google and apple also steal child porn directly from children, it gets saved on onedrive, and they store it in data-servers in India, where pajeets look at it, cartoonify it, and posts it on /bFinally it makes sense.But who posts it on /g/ then?
>>108687669Mods dont allow it, but pajeets would shit up this board if they could. Weird question, are you trying to troll me??
>wake up>boot pc>check temps >~20C>sudo emaint sync -a>sudo emerge -auvDN @world>kde needs update>check temps>70C>mfw
>>108686457Shutting it off daily is pointless and a waste of time. A couple times every month is fine.
>>108687163To say the N word its what separate us from AI bots.
>>108686457other than restarts for updates my desktop has been running 24/7 since 2014
>>108686565>They do nothing and idlenah, I'm downloading a 50GB file from a server on a 500Kbps line, I do this every other week
>>108687186>Computer being on for a long time accumulates errors in RAM.The fuck is this.
>>108686457when i was a kid my dad would tell me to shut down the PC because it was tired and needed a rest to work properly.i still do it 30 years later. it just needs some rest sometimes. we all do
>>108686457I just let it go to sleep
>>108687230Hmm that's interesting. Is that because nigger is widespread on 4chan or is it because niggers are niggers ?I mean i could say negro but i never see this word. I wonder if i could say negro in Hispanic countries and people wouldn't care. I like more negro than nigger actually plus you in spanish you can say negro negra for the nigress. Niglet is nice but i prefer the world negrillon from french sounds more like the little negrillon like the little dumb nigger.I saw little negrillon last time they were cute tho,i could fuck over a big negro because they're such repulsive creatures when they grow up but at the same time little niggerinos are cute like all kids plus they were looking at me with awe even if i'm totally white. Oh well. Each race should stay in their homeland and all of that shit wouldn't happen. I don't want to kill kids or make them suffer but niggers are so bad,they really have no education and when they do they still act like arrogant motherfucking negros. Such an annoying race, i could just be racist without fucks given but i'm too smart for that ,leftist and normies are positive racists and they're the dumbest motherfuckers you'd see in life,make sense.
>>108686457windows users arent allowed to shut down
>>108687227Probably the same way "cunt" gets extreme reactions in english countries I guess. Weird what triggers normies.
>>108686457I unplug my PC every night because my PC has been damaged by lightning strikes and power surges before so I'm kind of shook about the whole ordeal.
>>108690812Why not buy a surge protector or better yet a UPS?
>>108686591This>>108687189Plus it burns through your ssd. It dumps all the ram into the ssd when you shutdown and keeps it powered. Then it dumps the cache back into the ram when you "Fast-Boot™".
>>108692796I had a meme protector. My PC still got blown to bits. Cheaper and easier just to unplug it if I suspect a storm brewing. I also had lightning come through my window and blow my modem to pieces once. I've lost TVs and Microwaves from this shit before too. I think Zeus hates me.
>>108690317That's true but the question is how often its worth doing that
>>108693255>I also had lightning come through my window and blow my modem to pieces once.>I think Zeus hates me.It has been known to happen, after all Roy Sullivan exists and that man was obviously cursed. Just be glad whatever force has it out for you is content with striking your property and not your specifically.
>>108690317if I were your father i'd tell you to shut the fuck up
>>108693255lightning rod + ground wire with plugs well done + good surge protector
>>108686457Great thread.
>>108686764I ran my computer off of the power inverted in my truck when i was homeless living in the camper shell. 14C operating temps. The screen never recovered. It has permanent motion blur.
>>108686457Do people really not leave their PCs on 24/7?How the fuck do they access their network shares?
>>108690211It's because of radiation, either neutrons from the cosmic background or low level alpha decay from nearby objects. Particles hitting a gate in the RAM can cause the bit it stores to flip.
i shut my pc off at the wall daily and you can't stop me
I just have the windows task scheduler set to shut it down at 3 AM and turn it back on at 10 AM
>>108698320>How the fuck do they access their network shares?The server stays on 24/7. My personal computer gets turned off nightly
>>108686457I shut down and unplug my computer not because I'm schizo but because my dad was incredibly wary of electrical fires so I picked up the habit
>>108701339but you leave the circuit breaker on??? flip the mains off at night bro.
