I just open it.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 5 months ago

The first letter of my password.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 5 months ago

If there is a pin set, decimal on the numpad, else Ctrl or ESC.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 5 months ago

I also use Ctrl, or I waggle my mouse to wake both it and my PC (it's wireless).

[–] [email protected] 2 points 5 months ago

Right arrow. Wake on mouse disabled because cats. Right arrow is on the bottom right corner and convenient to hit when pulling the keyboard tray out.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 5 months ago

F3, what else?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 5 months ago

I mash the keyboard. It wakes.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 5 months ago

I thump my water bottle down on the desk just hard enough to make my mouse trigger and wake up the PC. By the time I'm sat comfortably it's awaiting a password :]

[–] [email protected] 2 points 5 months ago

Win/Super key

I find that pretty safe.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 5 months ago

Control. I'm mildly paranoid any other key will actually go through and type/do something.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 5 months ago

Esc, t, or I move the mouse. Depends on my goal when I'm waking it up.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 5 months ago

The power button

[–] [email protected] 2 points 5 months ago

Arrow up. Multiple times.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 4 months ago

None! And the sucker still wakes up all the time.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 4 months ago

I use numlok mostly. I guess I’m weird!

[–] [email protected] 2 points 4 months ago (1 children)

I use a arrow key, usually the arrow to the right

[–] [email protected] 2 points 4 months ago* (last edited 4 months ago) (1 children)

Arrow pressers unite. Down arrow forever

[–] [email protected] 2 points 4 months ago (1 children)

Up arrow is the only logical choice.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 4 months ago

I find your choice... Acceptable.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 4 months ago

Ctrl+Alt+delete for my work computer so I can go straight to password input.
Space for my home computer.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 4 months ago

I slap the spacebar, often multiple times if I'm impatient

[–] [email protected] 2 points 4 months ago

Am I the only one that just kind throws my hand on the keyboard and what happens happens?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 5 months ago

Fn or moving the mouse.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 5 months ago

My PC just never sleeps.

I just change the TV input to PC IN and it's already on.
