i rapidly press as many keys as i can within a 1 second time frame
or i just slam the enter key a few times
Am I the only one that just kind throws my hand on the keyboard and what happens happens?
Control, but I have Caps Lock and my right control key swapped, so physically the Caps Lock key.
It also doesn't really "wake" my computer. When I lock my desktop, I have the operation also set up to enable DPMS with a short timeout, so my monitor also powers down if I'm not typing for a few seconds. When I come back, I just smack Control to make the monitor power on and make my screen locker show an indication that it's active. Unlocking the screen locker disables DPMS, so once the system's unlocked, I don't need to tap anything to wake the monitor.
My machine is dual boot and boots so fast I don't sleep it. If booting to linux, after login it resumes my previous session exactly as it was anyway. No point sleeping it to me.
Cursor-right.
It's least likely to mess up your command line, won't trigger an action, and easy to find blind.
Control and alt .Bonus: To move to the bottom of a terminal, I have it set to scroll to bottom on input and hit backspace.
I honestly just kind of flop my hand around on the keyboard
My PC dual functions as a server so it never sleeps
Scroll Lock
Waking up is hardware encoded to the mouse button, keys are secondary.... It's mentioned on that 'daves garrage' YouTube channel with the guy who was a dev for windows 95.
Mash the DEL key, because it skips the prompt to click OK to login, and takes me straight to password entry.
Esc also removes anything typed into swaylock so esc
Numpad Enter, its a large Key on the edge of the Keyboard i guess?
I plop my furry balls menacingly on the keyboard and inevitably hit at least half the keys
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 :]
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.
I giggle the mouse.
Teehee
I mash the keyboard. It wakes.
I just open it.
If there is a pin set, decimal on the numpad, else Ctrl or ESC.
