From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

I think this could save me some battery time. I checked tlp but could not find anything related. In Sway config with swayidle maybe? All help appreciated.

Are you running arch on the metal or through crostini/crouton? The second option probably will only respect chromeos' power management settings, but you may be able to flash a full uefi payload and get rid of chromeos completely with https://mrchromebox.tech/#fwscript
