In general, you do everything that affects *you* as your own user. Applications, your screensaver settings, etc. And if you do things as root, they affect the root user's settings, rather than setting things for all users. There are exceptions, of course, but when you think of it that way, first, it helps to avoid making mistakes. -- uname -rsvp Linux 3.10.0-1160.102.1.el7.x86_64 #1 SMP Tue Oct 17 15:42:21 UTC 2023 x86_64 Boilerplate: All unexpected mail to my mailbox is automatically deleted.

Disabling lockscreen in GNOME for specific apps?
Hi! I run a simulator which is just an executable downloaded from the developers website and unfortunately the screen locks after 5 minutes ... forcing to quickly press a key (hoping it won't do anything unexpected with the simulator) and ... usually crash. Is there a way to disable the lockscreen just for this app under GNOME? Thank you.
