I used to be on kbin as e0qdk@kbin.social before it broke down.
The Japanese text on the bottom of the left image says: Sapporo (Draft) Black Label beer. I can’t tell what the four characters under 生 are though. (Too blurry for me to figure out.)
Edit: those characters might be 非熱処理 – meaning unpasteurized.
I don’t know about KDE in particular, but I’ve had problems with USB mice waking various Ubuntu systems when they’re not directly connected (i.e. there’s a hub or KVM in between it and the computer). The workaround I used for that was to remove the mouse input (e.g. by carefully pressing a physical button on the KVM) – which was good enough for me – but I think there is a programmatic way to block particular classes of input from waking the system if some device is waking your system inappropriately.
Doing a quick search turned up this: https://askubuntu.com/questions/252743/how-do-i-prevent-mouse-movement-from-waking-up-a-suspended-computer – I can’t vouch for any of the specific techniques there though.
Worth noting that while I had a problem with the mouse specifically, other hardware could be causing your system to wake up.
I tried booting an old Surface off a USB stick with stock Ubuntu once – probably either 20.04 or 22.04. (I tried this in June 2022 but didn’t make a note of the versions in my journal, unfortunately.) I was able to get it to boot, but I couldn’t get touch/pen controls working so I decided against replacing the OS. I didn’t have enough enthusiasm to bother experimenting with it further – I assume it probably needed the custom kernel.
