From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

This is a very common bug with Fedora (at least since Fedora 41), in my experience. I could not fix it on my system, so i just turned off the sleep mode.
As far as I understand the discussions on the usual-suspect forums this can be caused by a variety of reasons and it is very hard (for me at least) to diagnose the system in a way that gives the right answer.
Yeah that's what I had gone with the problem is I also have a Kanali TryX CPU cooler and it will burn-in since the vendor doesn't make a Linux version of their controller software. I essentially have to sleep the system or run a windows VM all the time to be able to sleep that when I'm not around. Only other option I can think of is to just shut all that stuff off but then what's the point?
