notes

nemesis midnight shutdown

• hypridle writes idle/active state to /run/user/<uid>/hypridle-state on nemesis.
• idle timeout is 60 seconds.
• daily-midnight-poweroff runs at 00:00 local time daily.
• at 00:00, if state is not idle, service exits immediately.
• if state is idle, service sends a desktop notification that shutdown will happen in 1 minute.
• service waits 60 seconds, checks state again, and powers off immediately if still idle.
• service logs each step to journald (view with journalctl -u daily-midnight-poweroff.service).
