I have machines that run 24/7, whether *I* am using them, or *I* have
left them to their own devices.  Even if I log out, I have the machines
doing things that I want them to continue doing.

I always go into the screensaver/screenlocker settings and set the
screensavers to suit me.  I don't ever recall having to change any of
the power-management settings on anything but my laptop.

And re:

Does Fedora need to pursue "energy certification requirements"?  Is it
certified, does it show that anywhere?

Perhaps the first login walk-through should also include taking you
into the screensaver and power management settings.

I'm more than a bit sick of "energy efficient" appliances.  Economy
mode on my washing machine doesn't actually clean the clothes, economy
flush on the loo doesn't actually flush it, and isn't hygienic (if you
can smell people's urine, you're breathing it in).  Economy paper
towels are so useless that you use a wad of them to get the job done.

All they really do is tick the box of some bureaucratic bullshit.
