Shutdown takes forever, too.

Personally, I select sleep or whatever they call it now when I walk away from a desktop, and setup my work laptop to do the same when I shut the lid. Personal laptop I have turn the screen off only and leave it running on nightstand.

ALL said devices get restarted only when some software application requests it OR monthly when I run updates. I do the Kindle, Packet Tracer, Windows Apps, Adobe Reader, Chrome, Edge, Garmin, Battle.net, Steam, Epic Games, Macrium Reflect, Microsoft 365, Zoom, Teams, and Microsoft/Windows updates all in a bulk action montly.

If it actually fixed anything rebooting... I mean it's rare now compared to its usefulness in years past.

Heck, the Telco still asks me to do this with Cisco stuff! Even when it's 2 devices on in Stackwise Virtual they want it, but I have a redundant circuit, so I only reload the one facing their circuit. I don't actually bring both routeprocessors down. Even in software upgrades I let ISSU (In-Service Software-Upgrade) work its magic.

Precisely why people "love it so," particularly for things like their Starbucks and Kroger accounts (random faked examples, but it's shocking just how many places are requiring MFA on stuff that doesn't really need it).

It, like encryption, should be applied on a thoughtful and "as needed" basis.

I am on the other-side of the fence on this one.

Show me a good reason NOT to encrypt something. i.e. give me a business-value proposition or it gets encrypted every time all the time.

That said I am working with HIPAA, FIPS, CJIS, PCI, etc. The easiest thing is to encrypt everything before the next audit.


Case and point. Encrypt all laptops... Then if a laptop goes missing at least any data is safe.

Case and point.

I believe you mean "case IN point."
