Windows 10: how to re-enable the actual sleep function on your PC/Laptop. Not the crappy MS one that they can wake up on demand.

Control panel > Hardware and Sound > power options > system settings.
Change settings that are currently unavailable

Disable Sleep Enable Hibernate Save changes.

Optionally: change power button to Hibernate

From power options > Change when the computer Sleeps:

Put the computer to sleep: Never. Click on Change Advanced power plans Go down to and expand sleep.
Change the hibernate after setting.

It's worth noting that this only works if you have hardware that supports the correct form of sleep.

Then Windows takes five minutes to start and another fifteen to become stable

But SSDs don't have the satisfying clicky grindy sounds

The clicking means it's working!
