Poh that's even more cursed
Jdespite being the older sleep technology isn't it better than S0 sleep or whatever the new one is called
ANot necessarily
Pwith external PCI you might as well be checking your house for poltergeists
Jor at least it works better
AI actually think modern standby is better than s3, if the manufacturer properly supports it
Pgood luck figuring out an answer
Phaving a hardware/firmware/software combination that actually supports modern standby is GREAT
PDoes bazzite work on hp omen laptops?
Pbut doesn't exist mostly
PI think I'm gonna get one so I'm just curious
AE.g. the LGO has great modern standby, it's basically flawless and better than s3
ABut ayaneo has garbage modern standby
ARequires hacking the bios and has bad battery drain
Pyeah that shit requires actual developers
Pnot just people who prototype hardware
Pit's funny because they struggle with this constantly on those little chinese gaming handhelds and i'm like
Pbro just turn it off it's a fucking gameboy
ABut generally speaking, s3 likely on average is better because modern standby can be a shit show depending on the device
KI mean some of them are the same hardware as the Legion, they're just badly made
KYou get what you pay for really
Pyah it literally is down to platform integration
Jrog ally
Pthey can have nearly identical components and still hire a bunch of morons to maintain support for it
ARog Ally took a long time for suspend to be fixed, but it's now fixed
KAnd it wasn't so much a platform problem that was causing suspend, just Asus using parts that aren't always Linux friendly
Jeven on windows sleep still is mid for the ally
KSleeping mid on Windows is the default state
AOn Windows, sleep is garbage
KLike that's the best you can expect
KThat's working as intended
Jdoes the steam deck use S3?
KBill Gates stamp of approval
Pthey also did reasonably well at building out driver support over time for this thing
AYes, the deck uses s3
Plike i bully asus but i give them credit where it's due they have tried their best to look after this market
Pthey obviously aren't just going to bury their heads in the sand forever
AOne thing that's kind of funny is that the Deck ironically might be the best handheld for Windows users that want working suspend.
COne day they'll put their stuff on lvfs hopefully
AI was talking to a redditor who had thought suspend was a non-issue on Windows since he ran it on a Deck with S3
JMy journey begins
Ptalking to a redditor
Pjeeze
Phave some self-respect
AHey, I help troubleshoot a lot for Bazzite on reddit. What can I do?
P99% of reddit comments are just goons screaming into the void
Pi say we take off and nuke the entire site from orbit
A¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Pit's the only way to be sure...
KLemmy exists
