Can I turn a closed Windows 11 laptop on and off?
I'm a Linux and big old tower PC guy. I know next to nothing about laptops or Windows. Is it possible to keep a Windows 11 laptop closed, but still be able to turn it on and off?

I used that in the distant past!
Like many people the results of the 2024 election felt like a punch in the gut. I've been a news fast since then. I'm ready to start looking at what happened.
I'm sure there are a lot of articles and videos.
Could anyone recommend a fact based analysis of why Trump won? Something in the style of The Economist versus hyperbole laden news videos. :-)
Please consider putting "Gaza" and "Hamas" tags into your thread for people who would like to filter this subject. Just using "Politics" would work too. No shade, no worries.
unkz,
I have found another opportunity to use this useful utility once again.
This time around I had it already set up.
Thank you once again.
Late in the game for this thread.
I've kept in touch with my late father's second wife. Called a lot, visited a lot.
I've tried in the past reaching out to her kids and grand kids, but that sort of dissipated. Health issues on their part, being busy, not having a lot in common.
Her daughter ( late 60s ) posted on Facebook today that her son ( 70s ) just went into hospice care.
I don't feel so much of a sense of loss for him. He was a difficult person to be around.
I feel very bad for my father's widow. She will be 91 in the fall. Has a collection of health problems. I feel very bad for the strain it will put on her. I've been worried that she might not have very long to be around, and this impending death just makes that seem closer. I've always felt there was something I wanted to say to her, have told her so, but have never been able to come up with anything. Even during good times she can be a hard person to listen to as she gravitates toward the negative at times. I plan on calling her, perhaps more often to give her support, though I don't know what to say. My thinking is that contacting her/"being there" is enough.
Ugh, this is upsetting.
I fell bad for her daughter too. I got to know her a little bit before her health problems, retirement, and busy schedule made it hard to be in touch. It can't be easy to lose a brother.
I think allowing people to dissociate their username from their content is really anonymous posting and is a bad idea for maintaining quality of content. Someone could say anything and not be "responsible" for it.
I do like a similar idea of a magic link/button that would allow any user to delete all of their content whether or not they decide to leave Tildes. It is their content, they should be able to control it.
Suck a link, and a "delete account button" like every other platform has would take a workload off of Deimos. People could just service themselves.
do more than point the gun
More than point a gun? Pointing a gun is a pretty serious threat.
He drew a gun on the police at a traffic stop.
A man who opened fire on a pizza restaurant believing a child sex ring was operating there has been shot and killed nine years later.
...
the front seat passenger pulled a handgun from his jacket and pointed it in the direction of the officer. That officer and a second officer who was standing at the rear passenger side of the Yukon gave commands for the passenger to drop the gun
...
‘After the passenger failed to comply with their repeated requests, both officers fired their duty weapon at the passenger, striking him.’
So it seems unchanged, but you can now say nasty shit about LGBTQIA+ people AND admit openly that you are a bigot.
I got this error message this morning when making content ( replying to a thread ) first thing in my Tildes.net session
Oddly, I didn't have any trouble making a new thread ( this one ), just replying to existing threads.
It happened on only the second comment I tried to make this morning.
This has been known for years, but there are still people who swear that they can do it.
Why am I not surprised?
It has to be a lot of work to delete every post and comment you made. Even to just delete only posts.
For my money the only true leaders were Kirk, Sisko, and Archer.
Looks good to me!
All of my life I have seen popular science articles like this. Not just with cancer.
I can't recall the last I have heard about the in-lab miracle making into production.
You can get a cheap popcorn maker for about $20 USD.
