# Pama-Lee/MacMiniMode > A macOS utility that keeps a plugged-in MacBook awake with the lid closed and no external display, and restores normal sleep when unplugged. - Magnitude: 4.7 out of 10 — Early signal - Stars: 86 total · +9 stars measured 2026-10-08, 07:49–08:35 UTC, ≈ 43 by evening - Star trust: star growth looks organic - Category: Productivity & self-hosted · Language: Swift · License: MIT · Created: 2026-10-07 · Last push: 2026-10-08 - GitHub: https://github.com/Pama-Lee/MacMiniMode · Homepage: https://github.com/Pama-Lee/MacMiniMode/releases/latest · Page: https://gitnova.dev/en/r/Pama-Lee/MacMiniMode ## Useful for - Turn a MacBook into a home server running with the lid closed and no display. - Run a headless build or long task on a MacBook without attaching an external monitor. - Automatically restore normal sleep on battery so the laptop does not stay awake in a bag. ## Why it’s here - Star-counter measurements on 2026-10-08 (UTC), 07:49–08:35: 77 → 86 stars (+9). This is the change over that interval. - Estimated end-of-day forecast: about +43 stars, using observed gains and the previous day. - The repository is 1 day old and already has 86 stars. With less than two weeks of history, there's no usual pace to compare the spike against yet. - Top new repositories this week: #177. - About 16 forks a day — people are taking the code. ## Star trust Star growth looks organic. Star-trust labels are heuristics based on the repository’s behavior, not a check of every stargazer. ## Numbers - Forks: 5 - Issues and pull requests: 0 - Watchers: 0 - Average over the last week: 58 per day - Usual pace: too little history (under two weeks) - Stars in the last hour (measured): 6 - Latest release: v1.3.1 (2026-10-08) ## Stars per day, last 5 days (oldest → newest, today is partial) 2026-10-04 … 2026-10-08: 0, 0, 0, 72, 9 ## Spotted in now - Top new repositories this week: #177 ## More in this category 1. **DuarteSantos8/openGym** — 8.6 · Breakout · Productivity & self-hosted · JavaScript · +617 stars measured 2026-10-08, 00:01–08:34 UTC, ≈ 1,545 by evening Self-hosted gym and body-weight tracker: plan routines, log workouts (supersets, warm-ups, cardio), see muscle fatigue map, import from FitNotes/Strong/Hevy, passkey login.

Full card: https://gitnova.dev/en/r/eternity4719/HowToLiveBetter.md --- Magnitude (0–10) measures how fast and how unusually interest in a repository is growing right now. It is not a quality score. Days are UTC. “So far today” is a fact; “expected by the end of the day” is a forecast. Summaries and use cases are written by an LLM (DeepSeek V4.1 Flash) from the README and may be inaccurate: verify specific claims (benchmarks, speed, hardware) in the repository itself. Data as of 2026-10-08 08:52 UTC, updated every 30 minutes.
