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.

Blame modern standby (s0i3). S0i3 is a huge mess honestly, really hard to debug from what I've heard and so is full of bugs and unintuitive behaviour on both the hw manufacturers side and on windows side. However if it worked as advertised, it would be a strict improvement to s3.

Hibrrnate (S4) is still alive and well but they hide it in the ui, I don't understand why because in my experience, it is by far the most stable.
