I unplug the PC when I'm done. There are regular thunderstorms during this season.

So power surges happen from time to time. To prevent my PC from frying I completely cut the power source after I'm done and away from home. And since I'm using an old ass dell monitor (really should start looking for an modern one) I don't have to keep the monitor connected to power for pixel cleaning.

I'm no expert, but using Linux as well, I do reboot mostly since A: my pc wakes up randomly when put to hibernation (haven't fixed it yet). B: I'm using SSDs so a cold boot takes no time at all.

What kind of hibernating are you referring to? Since if its on RAM I can imagine possible data loss when the power is cut.
