Also the power tuning in power top can be amazingly helpful sometimes. powertop --auto-tune is usually fine!

Thankfully modern kernels have turned a bunch of settings on by default. But for a while a bunch of pretty simple power saving measures like iirc the sata link wouldn't go into low power states by default.

The only thing I hate about powertop is seeing how much power my wireless interface draws even when it is mostly idle. I’m not downloading a website, wlo1, so why are you on?

Maybe I need to map a new key in my window manager: rfkill unblock wlan on keydown, rfkill block wlan on keyup, hahaha.
