Then you look at the uptime. 247 days. No longer have you been elevated. Now you're the vilest of vile. You're the user that lies. You just say what you think we want to hear, don't you? Well, now you're getting put on hold. For as long as your uptime was.

We have a running leader board for uptime. Servers don't count. That said, I've seen some people who think they actually are turning it off but the machine just enters sleep mode. I only trust

shutdown /r /t 0

I just press the power button/switch on the UPS/PSU/wall.

unless you do it from a running system (which you shouldn't, unless you want everything corrupted, that won't help. windows has a feature called fast startup that only kinda shuts down your PC, even if you unplug it, so things that would get fixed by an actual reboot wouldn't be fixed in your case

Thankfully, I'm not on Windows.
But the switch is only to make sure it is off. Of course I poweroff before that.
