I am on Mint XFCE and Redshift is just so inconsistent and I have tried its forks, also inconsistent. So instead I have been using sct in the terminal to adjust the temperature, and have set a command that resets it back to normal every time that I log on. However, I was wondering if there is a way to make it so that “sct 2750” runs every day at 10 pm or during a specific period of time.

Edit: I figured out the solution which was to create a crontab with the following line in it: 0 22 * * * env DISPLAY=:0 XAUTHORITY=$HOME/.Xauthority /usr/bin/sct 2750

      For these kind of common oneliners ChatGPT is pretty close to perfect. The answer it gives is in fact exactly identical to what OP has in their “Edit:”.

          BingChat does that a lot due to using Bing search results, ChatGPT isn’t big enough to reproduce exact answer, it actually understand the underlying concepts.
