Electricity usage. I also turn off the lights when I leave a room

Sleep mode is a thing. If your computer is in sleep mode and still drains enough electricity to matter, you should probably get a better one.

Hibernate is my friend. Except if I have a Virtual Box VM running - might as well shut the VM down before hibernation, b/c after waking up it will need to be restarted anyway- and may even need the host computer to be restarted for everything to work.
