Is the joke that hibernate and sleep states never seem to work right?
No its an antimeme. The joke is that everybody gotta turn it on.
I still dont get it :(
That’s because it’s lame. It’s not you.
It's lame in a funny way
No, it’s not. This isn’t anti jokes are funny now. People are really this bored I guess.
It's okay if you don't find it funny
I think this is making fun of the memes where it shows linux users going to (exaggerated) extremes to achieve something that is easy on Windows/other OS.
sleep and hibernate work fine on linux. I remember the olden days like 15 years ago where nothing of it worked. contrary to the stupid macos that was forced onto me which sleep means nothing and just keeps draining my bluetooth headphones battery anyway instead of turning off when I tell it to.
I still have issues on two separate machines. One won't hibernate sometimes, I suspect the nvidia card. The other has a new-ish ethernet card, which doesn't work after waking from hibernation (unless I reload the kernel module)
What's the point of hibernation? You have so much stuff open in some exact state you can't just turn off the computer?
It takes less time for me to boot fresh than to resume from hibernation (32GB of RAM)
Yes. I leave my laptop running in the office overnight, and at the end of the day I have a bunch of note documents, papers, code editors, and corresponding plots open and arranged among multiple monitors. It's extremely annoying to re-do this setup the next day, so I leave it running. If hibernation worked reliably, I could turn the machine off at the end of the day.
It was mostly because of Nvidia drivers. So many Linux issues is just Nvidia related.
Bs, I have had so many sleep issues on laptops without Nvidia graphics cards.
The most recent issue I had was something inhibiting sleep that I couldn't disable.
Before that it was being unable to decrypt the hibernate data on an encrypted disk.
Not bs just because you got lucky. :)
Mine works
Despite OP insisting otherwise, I'm gonna assume you are correct. I use a lot of flavors of linux for a lot of things, but I don't have it on a laptop (other than as an alt boot in case of a crash), so it seems logical to me that's why this joke went over my head.
