I use these at work where I have to use ear plugs. I hate in-ear headphones and these work perfect for my niche. Also get 2 workdays worth of battery life from these.
What I find a great bonus is that the mic on them does not pick any of the 80dB+ noise around me when I’m making calls. Also comfortable to the point that I sometimes forget I even wear them.
Also a physical button for pause/play so I don’t have to take off my gloves.
I find the default EQ quite bad with earplugs so I just use the parametric Wavelet EQ SW on my Android phone with quick preset for my other Sony WH1000XM3… Which sounds great on these as well especially for voices/vocals as I tend to listen to audio books.
I put my laptop into sleep by just closing the lid and sometimes after wake up the clock shows wrong time and date which results into web sites not loading until I change it back and then I also lose logins to my previously logged in websites and have to re-enter the logins....
I just got home. You’re right that it’s using NTP. I went into BIOS and checked system time and it was 1h behind so I corrected it. timedatectl shows that system clock sync is OFF so I used hwclock --systohc command to sync with system clock and will see if that causes any issues. If it wont work then I’ll try to just stick with your way of doing it. But thanks for letting me know about the hwclock command.
The common sense is to expect you can wake up your device from sleep without having to troubleshoot why it is not waking up suddenly for no apparent reason. I don’t feel like OP is complaining about how stuff works or does not work differently on PopOS rather than his frustration at the system suddenly not waking up which was the breaking point as he also lost his work done in the web browser.
Yes, I only listed the issue that broke the camels back. Yes, you should look into what you’re getting into but who in their right mind is going to search for any obscure issues they may run into before they actually run into them? That’s just unreasonable and you woudn’t even think of them even if you tried.
Ok so if I run into issues on Fedora 39 then I should take it with a grain of salt because Fedora is more cutting edge? What distro do you suggest then?
I get what you’re saying but I don’t agree that it matters. PopOS is quite popular and recommended distro and it’s fair to critique it if you run into issues. For average user it does not matter that they are working on Cosmic and that they are not updating the current version much if at all. They picked it because it’s popular or was recommended.
If someone will have bad bug fiesta experience on KDE Plasma 6 it’s easy to shrug it away as “it’s new, they still need to iron out issues” the same way as “that’s 2y old, what did you expect?”.
I agree with you but I feel like you’re completely missing the point I’m trying to make because this has nothing to do with what I’m saying. I’m talking from the perspective of someone who goes to try Linux and then runs into obscure issue and judges his experience based on that. It has nothing to do with how development works, bug reporting and making matters better. It’s just pure experience of what the OP encountered. From that point of view the things you are saying are irrelevant to the normal user. And my examples of Fedora or KDE Plasma were not meant to say it’s the same thing as what Pop!_OS is doing rather than drive the point that from someone else’s perspective who goes to try Linux and runs into obscure issues they may not even know how to find a solution to, it’s irrelevant what the devs do, how old is the distco, etc… They got the newest version available on the website and installed it expecting it to work with maybe some minor flaws and tinkering needed. The only thing that matters is that it’s not working as expected and the user is left clueless and frustrated when something completely breaks.
Plenty of new people who get lured into trying Linux don’t even know what to look for to make the right decision so they often go in blind and then get shunned by Linux “experts” because they “didn’t make research” regardless of which distro they went with because there will always be those who will say they picked the wrong one.

Pop!_OS wrong clock after wake up from sleep
