Hi Folks,

I am going to be participating in Extra Life this year and created a script that will flip my monitor upside down for 5 minutes randomly. I am looking for some more ideas for simple scripts or commands that could be entertaining for some donation incentives.

As a side not I am currently using EndeavourOS and Sway.

Using text-to-speech software and a cron job
At random intervals (several times an hour):
Get volume level
Lower volume level (think ghostly whisper)
Use T-T-S to say something barely audible
Return Volume to previous level

Bonus points if your hands are away from the keybd, or it's someone else's machine
