If you just put it to sleep, sometimes windows will start it back up to install an update. If you fully shut it down, it shouldn't start up to update if you've set it not to do so.

It's something that tends to happen (at least for me) when you're on the verge of falling asleep but not actually sleeping yet. Like if you're sitting up trying to stay awake but nodding off. It's a sensation like you're falling extremely fast, but it only lasts for a second because it's so intense it wakes you up instantly.
Adam Martin
Use your big brain and figure it out with the myriad tools available to you.
Julian Butler
Why do you people turn off your computers when going to sleep?
There is absolutely zero reason to do that.
Isaiah Gutierrez
It's probably a form of epilepsy. Don't worry about it and don't bother with the doctors (especially if you have to pay). You will probably grow out of it as you age.
Blake Smith
it's a sensation that sometimes happens from dreams, a person will dream that they are falling, and the dream will be so real that their body will subconsciously react to the fall, but will do so in sleep, the result of which is a sudden fearful jerk of the body, almost always resulting in waking up.
Josiah Nelson
I think I've felt something similar. I am drowsy with my eyes closed and then there is a sudden jolt throughout my whole body. It's like the feeling when you play a first-person game and fall down really far but the sensation happens instantly. It happens for random reasons but mostly it happens because I am really sleepy and start hearing voices as I shut my eyes but then a certain voice will wake me up.
Colton Garcia

No point in jacking up the electric bill with an extra 8-10 hours of usage every night. I don't put it in sleep mode anymore either cause that's been broken for me for the last month or two.

I also wanna know because I'm lazy and you clearly know what it is yet you took the time and effort to post a rad insult instead of just typing the name of said movie/video/show. Which honestly would've been easier on your parkinson riddled hands. Probably can't be more than 4 words.

HDD died. Poor thing was probably already dying but as long as it was spinning it was still working. But a restart was too much for it.
What I'm saying user is make sure your HDDs know that you love them before you reboot.

This is the only thing that scares me these days and I've had several similar dreams, based on real experiences.

the absolute scariest thing that has happened to me was sleep paralysis. i had this feeling where another person went inside my body. there was nothing i could do and it was just so slow and made me anxious. days afterwards i kept second guessing if i was truly me. it was really fucking weird. i still think about it from time to time.
