Fuck off, let people enjoy things. The idea that you need to be knowledgeable in something before trying it is an unnecessary hurdle to just play around with things and learn
Agreed. How dare they. They could be running a ham sandwich or something. fuck, it must be time to eat again. i hear my cat mewing feed me. I JUST FED YOU FIVE MINUTES AGO THEY’RE NOT GONNA FALL FOR IT DIPSHIT they’re falling for it aren’t they.
Funfact: not all windows laptops let you choose what happens when you close the lid.
My previous laptop had options for shut down, sleep and hibernate. And if you wanted none of those, you could go fuck yourself (or install not-windows, which didn’t work for the shitty niche software I need)
If you can’t turn off sleep, you shouldn’t be setting up servers.
The laptop should already be closed.
Why don’t more people use Linux?
the average Linux user:

don’t gatekeep 😑 maybe that laptop is running windows 11 with teamspeak on it and a buggy video driver
Incase it is running teamspeak server, you can fix that bug by setting up a mumble server instead.
If that’s the case, the person setting it up has no place setting it up.
HOW DARE THEY HAVE A USE CASE THAT YOU DON’T APPROVE OF, OH ARBITER OF TRUTH AND JUSTICE IN THE MATTER OF SERVERS!

Why?
Probably, but this is much less janky than some 100% critical to the business infrastructure that I’ve personally witnessed in data centers.
I’ve seen a laptop duct taped to the desk & wall with a similar note as the OP, so you would have to make a conscious effort to fuck with it.

Control Panel > Power Options > Change What Closing the Lid Does > (there is no option to change what closing the lid does)
This is Windows ableism. Just because your computer works with Windows doesn’t mean everyone’s computer works well with Windows.

I have a solution for that.
I bet you do
Rather than snark, maybe offer some helpful pointers, or even ask if there’s a reason for it?
Tent mode. Better air flow; no lid closing.
the hinge’s gonna break lol
Why? That’s a waste of time. The reason this is as it is is because whoever set it up can’t use a computer.
definition of gatekeeping and immeasurably destructive to any community, real or online
Jesus Christ, this is shitpost. And this image is as old as the sun.
I have my lidswitch disabled on my Debian server, but if it’s not open the MacBook won’t boot.
Even if soft/firmware won’t let you do a thing, in the case of a laptop screen it’s just a tiny magnet that can be removed in seconds.
I’m not cracking my case. I just leave the screen open
