     @Kerosene @hazlin windows is where 80%+ of the money is so that's where they put all their attention.
     
     nothing really stops linux from having a fastboot other than nobody wants to both do it for free and then fight the bikesheds upstream

     @Kerosene fast startup just makes it harder to work on, an anti-feature

     @hazlin I wonder if there's something strong-arming hardware vendors into making shit harder for anything but Windows or if they're just that gay and jewish. Likely both.

     @Alex @Kerosene @hazlin in theory you dump the kernel to ram a la hibernate.
     
     it's a neat trick, smalltalk did it to boot a slow system near instantly. there are old threads full of cope about why linux won't implement a similar trick of re-using a hibernate dump to be a fastboot

     isnt fastboot just suspending? it's not actually "booting", it's just waking the system from a suspended state iirc. linux basically has the same thing, but when you tell linux "turn off" it actually turns off instead of suspending. when you tell windows "turn off" it just tries gaslighting you.
