So I went to Devoxx in Belgium, and I took my labtop along. Of course, it's in a Cinema, so there's no electrical sockets in the rooms.
I was looking to prolong the use of my labtop, so I was looking for extend the battery life.
There were several good articles about it (see below in the references.)
I choose to install the Xfce Desktop Environment, and I was pleasantly surprised my labtop managed to hold together for a lot longer.
Fedora has some notes on how to install it, it's basically running the package manager properly, and it's done.
It can be selected from the dropdown menu on the login screen.
I shall put the command line down here, so I do not forget:
sudo dnf install tlp tlp-rdw
sudo systemctl enable tlp
sudo systemctl enable tlp
