Since switching over to Windows 10, I never could get the automatic sleep settings working properly. I used to have the screen save kick in after 3 minutes, then monitor go off after 10 minutes and computer automatically sleep after 20 minutes.
Now my power management is mostly a manual process. I have a function key set to sleep when I press that. What I find now is instead of sitting around the commuter for hours waiting for an email or a FB post or new [-]nonsense[/-] news stories, like a cat waiting for a mouse peeking at a mouse hole, the LBYM personality just puts the computer to sleep or hibernate when I know I won't be on doing anything useful on my computer for more than 10 minutes.
I almost make a game out of how long I can not use the computer throughout the day .
