Personally I press Ctrl
If there is a pin set, decimal on the numpad, else Ctrl or ESC.
Ctrl to wake the screen, system set to never sleep. Stupid Plex running on Windows addiction.
I just drop my schweaty balls on the keyboard
My 2 year old, when prompted to hit any key, hit the power button instead.
Anyway, the answer is a swift kick of my desk to move my mouse cause that seems to wake it up.
Mash low in the corner.
Probably a combo of Ctrl-shift-alt-super-z-x-space
I know, much barbarian.
Cursor-right.
It’s least likely to mess up your command line, won’t trigger an action, and easy to find blind.
Home laptop, power button. Work computer, CTRL-ALT twice brings the login screen.
Wait… You guys actually only push one button?
I slide my entire hand across the keyboard like I’m waving to the computer haha
I have a BLE keyboard and a BLE trackball, so they lose connection when PC is sleeping. To wake it up I press the power button
I use numlok mostly. I guess I’m weird!
Haven’t seen anyone else comment this, I mash all arrow keys
Originally I got into this habit thinking that arrow keys would do nothing, and in most interfaces they don’t, but I have learned the hard way they certainly do stuff when watching YouTube.
However it’s too late and too embedded in my brain to wake my PC by mashing arrow keys so that is my life
I push the power button on the tower.
Wait, there are people that don’t press Ctrl?
You mean num lock, right? Ctrl actually does something.
What does ctrl do on its own?
Fingerprint scanner power button thing
