    Resuming from S3 is still a lot faster than cold booting or resuming from hibernation, even with SSDs and Fast Boot. It’s also nice for keeping your session intact so you don’t have to reopen programs and reload tabs.

        Sleep is a convenience feature. Convenience features aren’t absolutely necessary for functionality, but they’re convenient, which is, you know, convenient.

          We need sleep. I’d say sleep is necessary. You ever goto work on a Monday after a weekend bender and no sleep? Eeeeesh

        I don’t know about you, but I run a lot more than a web browser. It can take like 5-10 min (sometimes 15+ min) to get everything launched that I need, depending on what I’m working on. So I’ll absolutely keep my workflow, which means I only need to do that like once a week or so.
