Modern suspend is a complete joke IMO. Put the laptop to sleep in your backpack, and after a couple mins your back will literally start baking. Arrive at your destination and the battery is flat

What was wrong with good ol' S2/S3 sleep ๐Ÿ˜ญ

a workaround is making sure the device is unplugged before suspend.

there's apparently no will to fix this through UEFI or Microsoft so always unplug first.

Hard agree. I now just resort to hibernate after an hour or so and even getting that setting to show up requires a reg hack most of the time. Modern standby sucks.

I don't get it either. My thinkpad has option to switch s0 sleep on/off and I don't understand why I would want to drain my battery and bake a backpack so it wakes up just a little faster.
