The NUC seemed to be very happy to just suspend after some time of perceived (not real) idle time, this seems to have fixed it.
```
# /etc/systemd/sleep.conf.d/sleep.conf
[Sleep]
# Disable suspend
AllowSuspend=no
AllowHibernation=no
AllowSuspendThenHibernate=no
AllowHybridSleep=no
```
# RustDesk was laggy, `wayvnc -v 0.0.0.0` didn't seem to do anything (or crash gnome-session),
# so what I ended up doing was:
```
cd /opt/src/aur
git clone https://aur.archlinux.org/xrdp.git
cd xrdp
makepkg
sudo pacman -U xrdp...
cd ..
git clone https://aur.archlinux.org/xorgxrdp.git
cd xorgxrdp
makepkg
sudo pacman -U xorgxrdp...
```
now add an `.xinitrc` (What year is it?)
```
cp /etc/X11/xinit/xinitrc $HOME/.xinitrc
chmod +x $HOME/.xinitrc
```
and replace the last lines with:
```
export XDG_SESSION_TYPE=x11
export GDK_BACKEND=x11
exec xfce4-session
```
finally
```
systemctl enable gdm.service
systemctl enable xrdp.service xrdp-sesman.service
systemctl start xrdp.service xrdp-sesman.service
```
Also make sure that `ls -al /etc/systemd/system/display-manager.service` is a symlink to `gdm.service` - didn't seem to work with sddm. @TODO

I wanted to connect my speakers to the NUC so I had audio that is separated from the machine I am currently working on.
I chose pipewire and ordered a C-Media USB sound card for 7 EUR.
0d8c:0012 C-Media Electronics, Inc. USB Audio Device
pacman -S alsa-lib alsa-utils pipewire pipewire-pulse wiremix wireplumber
Overall it was a terrible experience because I did not know that xrdp would not work with local sound.
