How Do I Change The Time Out Settings?
I like to use my laptop frequently on my father's Television when he's at work to watch something over the Internet like Crunchyroll, and when I wash the Dishes I like to listen to music on Spotify but I've noticed that it keeps timing out, is there a way to change this. I'm using Ubuntu 18.10 Cosmic Cuddlefish, it's really annoying trying to listen to music when it keeps timing out like that.

When you leave the computer or laptop idle for a while and it goes to sleep when your not around it and you have to touch something on the computer to wake it up.

That would be in the settings power option, top right corner of screen!

That helped a little, what I did was go to the thing with a bunch of dots, sorry lol I don't know what it's called, and typed in power settings, when I clicked on settings from the top right corner it was just showing me the display settings instead. But thank you
