Activity Simulator - Prevent Idle Detection on Ubuntu

🚀 Activity Simulator is a Python-based tool that simulates keyboard and mouse movements to prevent idle tracking systems from detecting inactivity. It ensures that your system remains "active" even when you are away.

🔹 Features

✔️ Random mouse movements
✔️ Simulated keyboard inputs (A-Z, numbers, space, tab)
✔️ Application switching to make activity look realistic
✔️ Lightweight & runs silently in the background
✔️ Simple start/stop commands
