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 :]

[–] seathru@lemmy.sdf.org 2 points 1 month ago

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.

[–] Jourei@lemm.ee 2 points 1 month ago

Control. I'm mildly paranoid any other key will actually go through and type/do something.

[–] Yeahboy92@lemmy.world 2 points 1 month ago

If there is a pin set, decimal on the numpad, else Ctrl or ESC.

[–] popekingjoe@lemmy.world 2 points 1 month ago

I also use Ctrl, or I waggle my mouse to wake both it and my PC (it's wireless).

[–] tissek@sopuli.xyz 2 points 1 month ago

Arrow up. Multiple times.

[–] intensely_human@lemm.ee 2 points 1 month ago

F3, what else?

[–] hitagi@ani.social 2 points 1 month ago

Win/Super key

I find that pretty safe.

[–] spittingimage@lemmy.world 2 points 1 month ago

The first letter of my password.

The power button

[–] Willy@sh.itjust.works 2 points 1 month ago

I use numlok mostly. I guess I’m weird!

[–] AlwaysTheir@lemmy.one 2 points 1 month ago

Esc, t, or I move the mouse. Depends on my goal when I'm waking it up.

[–] daddy32@lemmy.world 2 points 1 month ago

None! And the sucker still wakes up all the time.

[–] Shah_of_Iran@sh.itjust.works 2 points 1 month ago

Ctrl+Alt+delete for my work computer so I can go straight to password input.
Space for my home computer.

[–] Kage@discuss.tchncs.de 2 points 1 month ago (1 children)

I use a arrow key, usually the arrow to the right

[–] warbond@lemmy.world 2 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago) (2 children)

Arrow pressers unite. Down arrow forever

I slap the spacebar, often multiple times if I'm impatient

[–] Electric_Druid@lemmy.world 2 points 1 month ago

Am I the only one that just kind throws my hand on the keyboard and what happens happens?

[–] boatsnhos931@lemmy.world 1 points 1 month ago

I just drop my schweaty balls on the keyboard

click the power button i guess, i forgot.

[–] Angry_Autist@lemmy.world 1 points 1 month ago

My computer never gets the chance to sleep.
