/item?id=35219692 - "Not once, regardless of tlp and other tweaks and many hours of twiddling and forum-reading and keeping stats for weeks on end, has Linux ever approached Windows' battery life on the same machine" - https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=33858033 - "Install TLP, uninstall thermald, and make sure turbo mode is off (it's on by default in Linux - probably applies to Intel only)." - https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=33651208 - "by using $ powertop --auto-tune and $ tlp start. Disabling touchscreen, and disabling cores directly also works extremely well when I know I need a longer battery life" - https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=32965109 - "on Linux, I used https://github.com/FlyGoat/RyzenAdj all the time for my preferred use cases (eg, setting the temp limit below when fans turn on to get a completely silent laptop on battery, lowering max power limits if I wanted to hit a certain amount of battery life, etc). (TLP has run-on-ac and run-on-bat commands so you can easily set your defaults based on whether you're plugged in or not (udev can see power events too)." - https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=32689327 - "Every release of Ubuntu and Fedora since has caused a lowering of battery life. Current versions of both get me about 2 1/2 hours of battery life extended to 3 hours if I install TLP." - https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=31594346 From: https://hn.algolia.com/?dateRange=all&page=0&prefix=true&que... Tell me that isn't just "accumulating more knowledge of how to partially unfuck Linux"? Stumble upon the magic three letter command you'd never guess, something which you can tune and tweak which ideally requires "additional knowledge", which may not help at all and may make things worse, but several hours of trying will let you know - and to quote one of the other side comments "Can't say anything about quality of Bluetooth stack though since I don't use it". There's a reason that the thing most people do with Linux is put it in a container, on the end of an SSH session, at the remote end of hundreds of miles of internet link, hand the SSH keys to Ansible, and use it to serve HTTP/S requests to mobile phone users - and that reason is primarily no license fee. There's a reason people use it as a home fileserver and that reason is that installing Asterisk drives a feeling of being clever and getting "something for nothing". Instead of fixing this like it's a benign papercut, let the full badness wash over you, and then ... leave.

d use in conjunction or instead of ryzenadj) is a tool called auto-cpufreq: https://github.com/AdnanHodzic/auto-cpufreq - it lets you switch governor and turbo/clock speeds automatically base on battery if you're just looking for a simpler way to set that. 5.19 has a bunch of amdgpu fixes that might fix some things https://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/dri-devel/2022-April/... but sadly there are often also sometimes regressions/weird bugs: https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/drm/amd/-/issues?page=90&sort...

ook (it has a 5800U) Or bite the bullet w/ 12th-gen Alder Lake P and go with the latest Framework: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=31433556 Personally, I'm looking most closely atm at the newly announced (but not yet shipping anywhere) Asus Vivobook S 14X OLED (M5402): https://www.asus.com/Laptops/For-Home/Vivobook/Vivobook-S-14... * 45W Ryzen 6900HX (I'll assume RyzenAdj support will come eventually https://github.com/FlyGoat/RyzenAdj/issues/197) * 8GB DDR5 soldered, 1 SO-DIMM so up to 40GB of memory * A ridiculously good display: 14.5" 2880x1800 16:10 120Hz OLED w/ 550nit brightness, 100% DCI-P3, HDR500, Pantone validated (and reportedly no PWM flicker on this generation) * Decent ports - 1xUSB 2.0, 1xUSB 3.2, 2xUSB C, HDMI 2.0, 3.5mm combo audio jack * 1.6kg

It was pretty thorough and I answered a lot of questions so maye relevant still. Also, one of the things that I liked about the Ryzen laptops is that while it mostly wasn't possible to exactly undervolt, enthusiasts have done a great job documenting mobile Ryzen's power and thermal behaviors, and you can basically script it to behave how you want, when you want: https://github.com/FlyGoat/RyzenAdj/wiki/Renoir-Tuning-Guide I use a toggle that runs `ryzenadj -f 50` for example, which allows full turbo/speeds, but hard throttles to keep my temps right below my fan hysteresis temp to keep it completely silent. This tends to be my favorite run-mode on battery (I have it attached to a udev script for when unplugged).
