I've had the opposite problem with laptops. There's like 3 different menus to configure sleep-on-idle but none of them actually let you disable it even if they claim they do.
They don't even share the same state and can be set to conflicting values, with the oldest looking one usually taking priority.
Disabling screen timeout is even worse since there's additionally the screensaver settings to muddy the waters.

That's why LLMs are so popular: just throw together some code, see if it compiles.
How many (between them) incompatible GTK or QT versions are there ? Why someone has to come every few years with a new graphics library ? Is the JPEG, TIFF or PNG standard changed ? And who thinks that adding layers of abstractions solve problems ?
But america are the goodies, they should be able to meddle, spy ... in other countries. Tiktok is certainly a national security issue though, can't have those chinamen spying on americans.
