Generally not good you need ventilation to avoid overheating dust clogs in said ventilation.
If the carpet is a problem consider putting it on a platform or stand on the carpet.
However that being said i don t think it s a fire hazard or anything so it s probably safe also if your machine begins to get clogged with dust.
But carpets are really good at trapping dust pet hair and all manner of other things.
Can i leave my computer on the carpet.
Place it on a board if you must set it on the floor.
Sure you can it s fine.
You can buy rolling stands for precisely this purpose that also make it easier to move your desktop around.

There s a science to balancing airflow through.
If you re continually on your computer or go back several times a day it s best to leave it in sleep mode between sessions.
Probably not as the case needs the air to be able to circulate around it a pc runs hot and needs to cool itself with the fans inside of it.
And your computer well it s a giant vacuum cleaner.
