"sam's macbook pro" screen I have this setting on my macbook pro that I updated a while back and I don't remember how to undo it. Essentially, after a minute, my macbook pro screen will go black and will have "Sam's Macbook Pro" flashing on the screen along with the apple logo. It doesn't not to sleep, because once I move my mouse the screen goes away and goes back to whatever I was doing. I want to remove this since it's cumbersome to continuously move my mouse whenever I am working on paper at the same time. I've restored defaults under settings > battery > battery and this didn't work. Looking for any advice.

Display Unexpectedly Turning Off When Locking in macOS Sonoma Ever since upgrading to macOS Sonoma, I have noticed that my display immediately (and unexpectedly) turns off. Perhaps this happened before and I am only now noticing because of the stunning animated wallpapers...? Regardless, this behavior conflicts with my designated System Settings>Lock Screen configurations: My MacBook is always connected to a power adapter when I use it. I expect that the display should stay on for 30 minutes per System Settings. Is this something new with Sonoma? More importantly, how do I disable this behavior? I want the screen to stay on until it is configured to turn off per System Settings... Thanks!
