Terminal CLI method

OP requests a CLI (Command Line Interface) methodology.

For battery timeout:

gsettings set org.gnome.settings-daemon.plugins.power sleep-inactive-battery-timeout <time_in_seconds>

For AC timeout:

gsettings set org.gnome.settings-daemon.plugins.power sleep-inactive-ac-timeout <time_in_seconds>

So for both Battery and A/C set the time to 0 (never).

For Login screen:

gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.screensaver idle-activation-enabled false
