This may explain the issues I have at my buddies automotive shop… every few months all the PCs loose connection, then I have to uninstall all the drives and install them again. Fucking HP.

WTF does that mean?

Same here. And somehow windows just detects and Installs it every time over the network.

Count me in. Bottoms up!

It got disabled one day on my 8th Gen i7 XPS. It was driving me crazy trying to figure out why it keep cooking it self alive in my backpack. It’s since been demoted to house use, sleep is still useless even after many FW updates and fresh os install. That thing used to last weeks on battery just closing the lid. Now it can’t make it though the night. I wish I could turn it back on in this case, my new laptop is much better about it.

Sleep is no longer what it used to be. They killed off S3 sleep in favor of some always connected mode, much like you cell phone.

Joins in 1978, 1987, 1990, 1992 Volvo. I have a problem.

I don’t think that mattered my case. 90% of my day was running around on battery, which was pretty decent at one point.

My 8th gen XPS used to support S3 and one update they killed it off. It kept finding the damn thing cooking it self in my bag. Had to resort to hibernation.

As a former IT guy you’ll get what you need when you need it by not being a pissy fart.

I prefer signal, all my tech friends do too. Everyone else I need telegram and even discord.

Could this be why I get stuttering in games after enabling TPM installing windows 11?

There was a financial calculator from HP that they made for decades. The newer ones were so fast doing large mortgage calculations that the users didn’t trust it, so they intentionally slowed down the results.
