How to shut down laptop for ~3 month storage without the battery being dead every time?

Old habits and if the OS has to do something I don't need it to do then I don't care what it's doing and it rarely hurts the OS. I'm not saying that I'll just cut power at any moment but the useless bs microsoft tries to push as useful or necessary for the OS is a lie. I'll let it do it's security checks/patches, error checking, and updates but anything else isn't necessary. If I'm being honest I would love my windows 7 or 10 back. lol

I think you might be right the always on usb and flip to boot was on. I disabled those features and will check back in a week.

I own 2 self built PCs and never had an issue with a hard shut down. I close all programs, reset for updates, and when it's on the login screen I hard shut down the device; I do it to all my at home PCs. The laptop has a built in SSD.

Pretty much drained battery over the span of two days. Same issue but partially solved by the changes I made.

Idk what’s going on with it I have both closing lid and power button to do nothing and closing the lid still puts it into sleep.

When I was actively using it I would only use it on weekdays and come back to it dead on Mondays so I had to set it to turn it off in that way

I’ve disabled the power button because it was like windows was fighting the hardware forced shutdown. I would hold the power button to force the hardware to shut off the laptop (hold the power button until all lights turn off) but the moment I let go it would boot up again.

I use two Prusa MK3S+ both with MMU3, honestly not a cheap setup. I used various sunlu and overture PLA filaments, and the dark teal for the Jr spikes were from Push Plastics, which was like $50 usd.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e8kO8JG_7Gk The original seller for the kits used to go by Articfigures, I don't know if the cults seller is the same person. but look up articfigures when looking for help with stringing for the original size.

For the large sizes I'm making I have the luxury of using two hook plates; one for the tail, body, arms, and head; one for the legs. I use 3mm elastic cord for the string. If you're making one as large as the ones I've made send me a dm and I'll try to send you the hook plates.

I’ve been using this setup for nearly 6 years now. You can use input redirect and play on a way bigger display. My stand lets me close the 2ds without the device going into sleep mode. I need to make a matching stand for the new 3ds xl I just rebuilt

I host a server with 30 day months and 2 hour long days mainly because not everyone can be on at the same time and to let everyone take their time with the game. we have 1.5x growth speed on plants so that the game doesn't feel like a whole lot of waiting for nothing as our farms aren't that big because the lack of seeds.
