Keep Laptop Active (Mouse Jiggler)

 To simulate activity on your laptop even when your mouse/keyboard is idle, you can use a Python script that moves the mouse cursor slightly at intervals—this tricks your operating system into thinking you're still active.

Here's a simple cross-platform solution using Python and the pyautogui library.

✅ Python Script: Keep Laptop Active (Mouse Jiggler)

📦 Prerequisites (install once):

pip install pyautogui

🧠 Python Code:

import pyautogui
import time

print("Simulating activity. Press Ctrl+C to stop.")

try:
    while True:
        pyautogui.move(1, 0, duration=0.1)  # Move 1 pixel to the right
        pyautogui.move(-1, 0, duration=0.1) # Move back
        time.sleep(30)  # Repeat every 30 seconds
except KeyboardInterrupt:
    print("\nStopped simulation.")

---

💡 Notes:

• You can change the time.sleep(30) value to adjust the interval.

• Movements are minimal (±1 pixel) and usually invisible to the user.

• This works on Windows, macOS, and Linux.

❗ Alternatives:

• Windows: Use tools like Mouse Jiggler

• macOS: Use caffeinate command to prevent sleep:

  caffeinate -d -i -m -s
  

• Linux: Use xdotool to simulate input (needs GUI/X11).
