My main machine is running a dozen VMs 24/7; powering it down is a 20-minute job. Plus I'd be interrupting processes that should probably be left running all the time. The machine on my desk is an Intel NUC and uses 40W at absolute peak load, I believe...Intel's claim is that playing a 1080p video off of YouTube burns through less than 10W. Letting it idle overnight seems like a no-brainer to me. I also have a NAS which by definition should pretty much always remain available. That said, I always leave my laptop into hibernation mode, as I simply don't trust sleep mode to ever resume correctly.

I do. I close everything and then close the lid. Nigh-nigh laptop. See you in the morning.

Leave mine plugged in and walk away in the evening. But then I'm at the house not an office.

Yaw right - naturally.

Just overnight? I don't think I've shut down or restarted my desktop PC in weeks. Maybe longer.

I used to. Then microsoft demonstrated they can not be trusted with it so I don't anymore. I am sick and tired of opening it up to find it powered on and too hot to touch after having closed its lid at the end of the day.

I shut it down completely when I'm done with it. Closing all my work puts me in the relax mode so I do that anyway, and it's back on in a minute when I need it again.

I boot it up Monday morning, shut it down on Friday when done with work. In between I just lock it at the end of the day which puts it into sleep anyways.

Not me, laptop sits lid closed and additional screens off at the office. If I'm needed, use my main machine at home to remote into it for whatever requires doing.

I always shut down my computers at night, always have.

When you run your PC it gets warm and all of the tiny components expand. Shut it down and they all contract again. Over time your just asking for trouble. Not sure if that's really true but it seems safer just to leave it on all the time (or off all the time if it was my choice).
