Semi-related. I wonder why Mac OS does not provide any setting to keep the laptop running with the screen closed. You either need to use third party software or connect a dummy HDMI dongle. Both of which cost additional money for a function that is furnished as a matter of course by other operating systems.

- Crestwave 18d agoThere is a setting for it, it's just not exposed in the GUI. sudo pmset -a disablesleep 1 As mentioned by the other commenter, `caffeinate -s` also works, but with the caveat that a) the command has to be running and b) the laptop has to be plugged in to power. Configuring disablesleep=1 completely prevents sleep and lasts until you manually configure it back to 0.
