Linux

I've never had a Windows machine that can stay on longer than ~3 days before developing weird behaviour so it's off right now until I get home.

I made Windows XP run for 40 days using a custom shell. Things got a bit weird, I ran defrag and memory optimization often.

Uptime: 9 days, 13 hours, 36 mins

My Arch system stays on until a firmware package needs an update. Then i cry and scream bc it's only been a month since the last one. Also I just updated a bunch of those, so my system has not been on long.

People leave their PC on constantly? I understand leaving servers running but i always turn my PC on in the morning, then off at night once im finished.

There was a period where I was testing my laptop's hibernation so I got uptime to around 30 days.

But now, The highest uptime I can reach is around 2-3 days if I forget to turn it off and leave it either plugged in or on a high battery so it lasts until the next day.

12 days and 17 hours. As another commenter pointed out, checked with uptime

Uptime: 26d 17h 44m

07:38:25 up 15 days, 15:54, 2 users, load average: 2,93, 2,24, 1,65

53 min

up 1 day, 8 hours, 2 minutes

It depends. Sometimes I shut it down every night. Occasionally, I'll leave it in sleep mode for a few days.

I think the longest uptime I've had on anything I've owned is probably a month or so on a Raspberry Pi 4 server I used to have running with a personal Mediawiki instance (I still have the Pi, but if I ran a server in my dorm, I have the feeling someone might come to bite off my hand).

23m,Short ik.

I have an Nvidia GPU and suspend/resume works about 20% of the time so my PC is shutdown every time I won't use it for a few hours. Don't use my personal computer that much so it doesn't really bother me a lot. My laptop is however long the battery lasts with the lid closed, I don't use it much so most times I pick it up it's dead.

I think my desktop has been on the past couple days because I've been too lazy to turn it off because I caught the flu and basically slept the past couple days away.

Last time it was off was during the summer holidays.

I'm surprised how many people turn their computers off. My desktop uptime is 4 day, but, I do put it to sleep at night (which I think counts towards its uptime).

I will look into hibernating. The reason I don't shut down is because I usually end up with carefully placed windows and lots of ongoing projects all over. Restarting would mean I'd have to start all that up again - assuming I remember what I was doing.

Today I learned the inxi command does so much more than I thought. I've only used it to check on my RAM once

One or two of my computers have been on for about five years. The laptop I use mostly has been on for several months. But I'm a very teched-up person. I've got computers in various forms all over the place. Actually less nowadays compared to many years ago. I don't shut anything down because I've got various services in operation 24/7.

Thanks to Mint's updates... about 10 minutes.

My work laptop has been up for 26 days, 17:24. My primary server at home has been online for 42 days, 21:27. Personal laptop - 45 days, 20:51. The primary server of my exocortex has been online and crunching away for 278 days, 19:48.

I turn it off every night or if I'm away for many hours, so about 10 minutes right now.

I do have a Raspberry Pi that's been up 12 weeks, 5 days, 19 hours, 59 minutes. I believe there was a planned power outage when it was lasted turned off.

I had about 300 days of uptime on my server but I did some hardware maintenance recently. I'm back up to like 20 but I need to do more stuff.

I did find a fun "bug" the other day with windows and how it tracks uptime. Since shutting down hibernates the kernel it doesn't treat it as time off. So when I fired up this surface I hadn't used in a long time it had 180 days of uptime.
