How long has your PC been on for?
How long has your PC been on for?
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

PC != server.
At the lower end, it's a pretty rocky line. It's easy to image a person who games during the day and torrents at night on the same machine. Or runs a plex server but only when they want to watch something while they sleep.
that's not a server machine
Well my "Server" just a repurposed desktop with a headless debian install.
now that's a server. mine is like that too. its not the hardware but the purpose that makes a machine a server
Why do you think it's different?
A server needs to be available, a PC doesn't. As long as your PC is not serving something 24/7.
Are you telling that to others or me?
I think you should tell that to others
There is no benefit in letting your PC run for days, its just waste of energy and bad behaviour.
When you hibernate, "uptime" counts it even though the computer is off, as it's more of a "time since cold boot".
So I turn off my computer every day, but have an uptime of weeks now.
Nice, so you are turning off your computer and pad your "uptime". clap
I'm just explaining how people end up with high uptimes despite not keeping their computer on all the time. There is no purpose to "padding your uptime".
