You can just close the lid, it should continue working just fine.
It does continue to run when the lid is closed but I don’t believe it turns the screen off (but I’m not 100% sure as it’s closed). My goal was to reduce power consumption of the screen
Hi @Start9 team. I recently installed startos on an old Lenovo thinkpad (I installed the “non free” version if that matters. It seems like everything is running well. However is there a way for me to turn the screen off of the laptop so it doesn’t consume lots of power? None of the normal hardware buttons I use to adjust brightness or turn screen off seem to work.
Thanks!
Thanks!

GOOD MORNING NOSTR, DESPITE RAMPANT SPECULATION I FAIL TO SEE HOW I BENEFIT FROM ANY OF THIS BULLSHIT. JUST THOUGHT IT SHOULD BE PUBLIC. CONSIDER ZAPPING DEVS WHO BUILD SHIT YOU RELY ON.
RHR WILL BE ...
Good morning amigo, thanks for all your education over the years, you’ve given me the conviction to hold strong through the bears and keep stacking. Keep on fighting the good fight
Gold bugs basically sit around expecting things to collapse or for governments to repeg their currencies to gold. The narrative is always that within a few years they will have some giant price surge....
I think in the western world, many would argue an S&P500 index fund held in a vanguard account would do what you said. It’ll generally hold its value, is accessible via a phone call to broker or a computer and password (sell some shares and withdraw cash from an atm anywhere in the world), and you probably won’t get rugged.
Sure it will have fluctuations in value and you could get rugged by the US government and/or broker, but the odds of that seem quite low (maybe as low as the US trying to ban bitcoin).
I personally believe Bitcoin has the best characteristics AND also huge asymmetry which is why I hold it, but just trying to steelman why a boomer would and probably can be satisfied with his ‘diversified’ equity portfolio, at least for the remaining few decades of his life.
