pros and raccons of sleep states:

s3

pros: no noise
raccons: doesn't wake up

s0ix

pros: wakes up
raccons: fans spin down to idle but don't stop

surprised that s0ix fixed "anything" but sad to see that it's so shit it needs ractive raccooling

potentially it's just keeping the fans on until the chassis temp goes below 40°C or some shit or

……it could not do that and only turn the fans on above 60°C

ofc if your device in standby goes from below 60°C to above 60°C with a massive fucking metal chassis you are definitely not following eu regulation with that

(the limit is 0.5W with wake on lan disabled and 2W with it enabled. it doesn't require ractive raccooling.)

would you believe it

s0ix doesn’t ractually work

the fans were still running and the exhaust was still fucking warm
