I have been going strong for 34 days and 5 hours.

You can check by running inxi in the command line or checking the CPU in Mission Center

It's like a daedra, it's been on, has always been on, and will be on forever

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.

[-] itsonlygeorge@reddthat.com 3 points 2 weeks ago

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.

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.

Recent 535.216.01 seems to improve that.

[-] independantiste@sh.itjust.works 1 points 2 weeks ago

I'm on 565 haha, I think it's got to do with the kernel, I've seen people say it's solved with 6.13

[-] utopiah@lemmy.ml 1 points 2 weeks ago

FWIW did you try https://download.nvidia.com/XFree86/Linux-x86_64/435.17/README/powermanagement.html ? Namely enabling nvidia-suspend.service/nvidia-hibernate.service nvidia-resume.service services?

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

[-] data1701d@startrek.website 2 points 2 weeks ago* (last edited 2 weeks ago)

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).

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.

[-] theshatterstone54@feddit.uk 2 points 2 weeks ago

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.

up 1 day, 8 hours, 2 minutes
[-] koncertejo@lemmy.ml 2 points 2 weeks ago

Uptime: 26d 17h 44m

[-] NotAnArdvark@lemmy.ca 1 points 2 weeks ago

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.

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

[-] some_guy@lemmy.sdf.org 1 points 2 weeks ago* (last edited 2 weeks ago)

55 days, 34 mins

Edit: my Mac mini (the torrent client) is 199 days.

[-] Nednarb44@lemmy.world 1 points 2 weeks ago

My main PC only stays on for a couple days at a time (on sleep/hibernate when not in use) only because I'm generally too lazy to shut all programs down. I reboot on updates though, which is every couple days.

[-] Trilobite@lemm.ee 1 points 2 weeks ago

I never turn it off it gets an occasional reset when updates need to be installed but that's about it

[-] drwho@beehaw.org 1 points 2 weeks ago

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.

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.
