Holding down the spacebar to show as “active” on work activity monitor

Small tip I learned today–my team uses Webex to track activity. After 15 mins of “inactivity” the little dot next to your name goes dark, showing how long it's been since you were active. I tried playing industry-related youtube videos on mute, but it was still going “inactive” without my interacting with the keyboard–having a video playing wasnt gonna cut it. Today, I figured out if I click out of everything and click on my screensaver (so that I'm not typing on anything) and then balance something heavy on the spacebar (like a paperweight or water bottle) I will never stop being active. Gonna go take a nap now..and be active the whole time.
