benj889249dNice project!
Just a quick comment for the lazy like me, apparently you can also place your mouse over an analog watch and the motion of the watch keep the computer awake :-) -
TheBeardedOne3099249dSounds wonderful. I'm so tired of coming back from a 45 minute shit to management being all "showing offline?"

Yep, there's a 13 line python script that can do this:
import pyautogui
import time
# while true, move the mouse in a clockwise fashion
while True:
pyautogui.move(0, -50)
time.sleep(1)
pyautogui.move(50, 0)
time.sleep(1)
pyautogui.move(0, 50)
time.sleep(1)
pyautogui.move(-50, 0)
time.sleep(1)
Meanwhile the rest of the neanderthal world will shell out $20+ for "mouse jigglers" on amazon (I shit you not, they are real, go look at them 😂) -
TheBeardedOne3099248d@fullstackcircus props to however came up with that though. They saw an opportunity and didn't waste it lol
-
saucyatom2526248d@fullstackcircus Why would anyone use a 13 line script when you could install an npm package with a gazillion of dependencies instead?
-
@TheBeardedOne wait... do they seriously message you this? you need to run in the opposite direction, and very fast
