⭐ SYNOPSIS ⭐

tlp-pd.service

that's it. that's the whole vibe. iconic honestly 💅

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

so, tlp-pd implements the D-Bus interface org.freedesktop.UPower.PowerProfile — which is the thing that lets your desktop environments show a profile switch. like, a lil toggle in your DE so you can pick a power profile, cute right? 🎀

and who actually does the work when you flip that switch? TLP. TLP is used as the backend to apply these profiles. so the DE shows the switch, TLP is the one making it real. dream team behavior fr fr 🔥
