    Thank you for reading and hopefully answering soon. :)

    There should be an option in System Preferences > Energy Saver called "Prevent your Mac from automatically sleeping when the display is off". Enabling that option will cause the computer to stay awake even when the display sleeps.

    If you want the display to never sleep, set the "Turn display off after" setting to "Never". If you do that, it's probably best to make sure you have a screen saver enabled too.

    Otherwise, as the saying goes, "There's an app for that". I've used Amphetamine for years to prevent sleep when certain apps or processes
    are running, and it's a nice tool to have handy for such a thing:

    <https://apps.apple.com/us/app/amphetamine/id937984704?mt=12>

    Interesting. I'd not happened across this before.

    Do you also recommend THIS facility?

    https://github.com/x74353/Amphetamine-Enhancer

    Thanks.
    Ooh. Interesting that Enhancer is from GitHub (not Apple's app store),
    but it requires the original Amphetamine from Apple's App Store. I
    wonder why not offer from Github too?

    Also, Redditors told me about caffeinate command in Terminal which works
    too and already included in macOS!

    He pisses off an entire group of people who are mere civilians, but that's
    a conceited fool for you. What you and I care about isn't a factor. Time
    to blame the lack of many eyes!

    I'm about to plonk him, myself. Like all idiots, he's repeatably looking
    for some way to blame, no matter how bizarre the charge. I will not listen
    to his response to this post. He is humiliated, wants to blame others, and
    will fly off the handle. Most likely starting with a conceited "Ha!", as
    if what I've written is SO absurd. That BADish "approach" was him going
    too far, for me.

    For all the gloating Toasty's done on this topic, the 'Front End Designer' doesn't know how to do this. It only takes a couple seconds to highlight
    a paragraph and 'PDF convert' it.

    Your system will crawl while finding a way to stop Toasty.

    And in response you have nothing but an attempt to start more flooding.
    The guy is as loved as pork pie in a mosque -- and with good reason.

    How do I tell mac OS Big Sur v11.6.4 to never sleep when using in a 2020 Intel MBP? I only want to set this as a test since I'm trying to figure out why this MBP crashes when waking up after sleeping once in a while. So far on power AC connection, it never crashes with sleep disabled. macOS Big Sur v11.6.(3&4) doesn't have an option to do that. I only can disable its power nap and display sleep.

    Display sleep is OK, but I was talking about system's sleep. This one I don't want to sleep at all.

    Where did Rbowman find your scripts?

    It was Rbowman who forged me (and Snit Glasser) and bragged about it. I
    just don't understand the point in Rbowman continuing to tell that story,
    when they know it's not accurate. I will no longer bring up the saddest,
    so far, series of lies they've written about me in the past; because several truthful posters did as I asked and told Rbowman that they did, infact,
    forge me concerning that subject.

    Rbowman - who caused more headaches applying his 'fixes' than what the
    box started with before he got there. The herd's developed an AI system
    with (I'd guess) the Baum–Welch method to automate posts which are hard
    to distinguish from my posts.

    My best advice is that you simply update to Monterey 12.2.1

    Works like a dream!

    It's a BIG change. Set it in motion just before you go to bed and it
    will be up and running once you awake!

    Is it still buggy?
    It never *was* buggy for most people - you just fell for the hype. What supposed bugs do you claim I have experienced running it since release?
    Hint: none.

    All software has bugs. Just because some blogger reports some people experience an issue doesn't mean that you or most others will too.

    Just look at Toasty's programs and look at mine, there is nothing for RonB
    to learn from a fool like Toasty. But knock yourself out, let him keep making an ass of himself. He can make another sock to pat himself on the back.
    Of course I noted specific examples of Toasty lying, lying, etc. His response: to change the topic.

    I do not explain that. Denseness is denseness and there are "advocates"
    who are of one mind with it. A few are even lawyers.

    No no. Toasty never agreed to stop accusing good people of being like him.
    He lied about his trolling of course. Nobody who isn't just using you for trolling ends sees you as anything remotely close to honorable. You have
    few but Toasty to thank for that.

    Geeeejus! How did Toasty get _so_ egotistical he believes everything is
    about him??

    Despite all the gloating Snot / Snit has done on this topic, the 'UX Designer' doesn't understand how to do this. It only takes a couple seconds to select
    a sentence and 'capitalize' it.

    Perhaps you use it incorrectly. Do you not understand the use of VPN?

    You've proven that it is Snot / Snit.

    Snot / Snit expects people to believe that a poster such as Shadow who he
    has again declared to be a forger is someone to 'trust'? Why can he think people are THAT stupid?
