I'm going to give you a mega useful tip.

You need to create a group. You can kick the user later and say it was an accident. Then you start a meet inside of that group. You can be the only one in the call. Change your status from Busy to available again on top. Just leave yourself muted inside of that Teams call. Your Teams will never go inactive and neither will your laptop.

If anyone is wondering yes, it can see that you were in a meeting by yourself all day

[–] da9l@lemmy.ml 1 points 1 hour ago

who is "it" exactly?

[–] ThanksObama@sh.itjust.works 18 points 14 hours ago

I just always have mine set to show away. Management stops noticing when you are yellow in meetings regularly.

[–] LePoisson@lemmy.world 10 points 17 hours ago (1 children)

Hmm, I just open notepad and use a stack of coins or something similar to hold down a key to stay active if I need to.

It's stupid we even have to care about our status on teams. Why should anyone give a fuck about your teams status as long as you're getting to your work done properly and on time?

Although to be fair right now I'm using a client laptop so my employer basically sees me as offline all the time but I'm reachable by teams or email on my phone.

Anyways it's just dumb. Fun trick though, I didn't know you could do that.

There’s a tool for Windows called Caffeine that simulates pressing the F15 key, which is almost never used by any software being that most keyboards don’t have function keys that go that high.

From the webpage:

If you have problems with your PC locking or going to sleep, caffeine will keep it awake. It works by simulating a keypress once every 59 seconds, so your machine thinks you're still working at the keyboard, so won't lock the screen or activate the screensaver.

[–] LePoisson@lemmy.world 13 points 16 hours ago (2 children)

I can't install unapproved software on my work laptop, probably like most others hence I ain't messing with that.

[–] m0stlyharmless@lemmy.zip 5 points 12 hours ago

For what it’s worth, with Caffeine, it’s a single, portable executable, so it doesn’t need to be installed in the conventional sense, but if your IT department monitors processes or whitelists what is allowed to run, this would still be a problem.

The best is to get a physical mouse jiggler

[–] glitch1985@lemmy.world 6 points 14 hours ago

Preferably one that moves your current mouse. The USB dongles all have the same hardware id and can be tracked.

What's does F15 does? My keyboard only goes to F12

[–] m0stlyharmless@lemmy.zip 3 points 11 hours ago

It’s up to application software to define what it does. I have never seen a keyboard with function keys beyond F12 in person, but they do exist. Software is very unlikely to respond to F15, which is why Caffeine uses it to keep the system awake. Notably, the program can also instruct Windows to stay awake using its native mechanism instead (possibly insufficient for something like MS Teams) or another virtual key code of the user’s specification.

I open notepad and shut the laptop lid halfway on the enter key. Always green, always working.

[–] Fedizen@lemmy.world 3 points 16 hours ago

This is a good tip. I haven't used it in a while but you can also log into it from web interfaces so i think it was possible to shutdown the desktop app and log into it from other places where it didn't have the same kind of access.
