  • Simply have the pages blank as possible, and use a pseudonym. Shit posting Is it going to do anything to make data less desirable. Just follow all of the typical advice for staying anonymous on the internet.

    Also, insist on only using the secret message feature of Facebook Messenger. Those messages are and to end encrypted and at least if you believe facebook, not even Facebook can access them.







  • The reason why I suggested still checking up time is because sleep and hibernation are different. In sleep. Yes, your RGB would stay on. In hibernation the power to the device is completely shut down but the state of your computer is saved to disk and restored when you power it back on. With some computers you can even completely unplug the power from the device and plug it back in and when you boot it back up you would still resume without resetting uptime.

    This is the new default behavior in Windows 10 and 11 when you hit shut down. With Windows default behavior right now they’ve basically replaced shut down with. Your uptime only actually gets reset when you restart, not when you shut down and then power on later.

    Check your actual uptime in the system, because oftentimes just because your computer has visibly shut down, doesn’t mean that the system has actually shut down. Oftentimes it just goes into hibernation instead, Which doesn’t reset your uptime.

    Edit: before you down vote me, have some extra context. Microsoft changed the default behavior for Windows 10 and 11, when you click shut down in your start menu It will do this deep hibernation instead of actually shutting down. They save state your operating system effectively, and then shut down, and then when it boots back up it restores that save state. They’ve done this in an attempt to speed up boot times for most people. All of your things that run on first boot don’t actually have to rerun if you’re not booting all the way from scratch. If you’re just restoring the state from before the shutdown, it’s like you never shut down at all. This means that your uptime often doesn’t get reset unless you actually do a restart.
