Suspending to RAM is the equivalent to sleep.

Dying would be the system refusing to turn on.

More like a coma, they die only if you remove the CMOS battery

La petite mort.

computers can't die since they aren't alive

Computers are machines
Machines don't die
If a machine stops working, just repair it

>>61575777
Not if you remove the battery >:)

doesn't mean shit if it's got wangblows

what about hibernating?

Hibernation would be equivalent to writing all your memories, or even the whole consciousness to another media, like a hard drive.
