I don't run Windows, but if I remember correctly, the Suspend activity for gpu work . . . . or cpu work for that matter extends for only 60 minutes. Then reverts to active again.

The only way to make that permanent on a project is to suspend the project or suspend currently cached gpu tasks for the project and set NNT.

Snooze stops crunching only for 60 minutes. If you change crunching to not follow preferences but to suspend GPU/CPU crunching that suspension is until you change it back to based on preferences or always.
Suspending any task for a project disables the work requests for that project. You don't need to set NNT for that project.

How long can SETI slumber before being considered dead? #askingforafriend

A long time yet, Rip Van Winkle had a 20 year nap.

And Sleeping Beauty was out for 100 years.

There are also GSM desktop phones. They look like old fixed phones but are operating like a mobile phone. They have an antenna and a battery so they can be operated also during power cuts. Normally you keep them connected to the power line.

First you have to identify which subproject (application) of Einstein tasks the ones that you want to do belong to. Then at Einstein web site you go to your project preferences and select only that application. See what preference set (General/Home/Work/School) your computer is set to and modify the preference settings to accept only that application.
[b]APPLICATIONS[/b]
Run only the selected applications
[] Binary Radio Pulsar Search (Arecibo)
[] Binary Radio Pulsar Search (Arecibo, fast)
[] Binary Radio Pulsar Search (MeerKAT)
[] Gamma-ray pulsar search #5
[] Gamma-ray pulsar binary search #1 (GPU)
[] Gravitational Wave search O3 All-Sky
[] Multi-Directional Gravitational Wave search on O3 (GPU)
[] Multi-Directional Gravitational Wave search on O3 (CPU)

Select this setting also to [b]NO[/b]:
[b]Allow non-preferred apps:[/b]
YES | [b]NO[/b]
If no work for selected applications are available, accept tasks from other applications?

Check the setting on Boinc manager how you are allowing the GPU to run. The GPU has settings to run: Always, Based on preferences or Never. You should use Based on preferences.

The only spirit in this house is distilled by my nephew in law if that is a thing.

A Christmas spirit?

The bold part tells you what is wrong. In Windows, GPU is not available for crunching when Boinc is installed as service. You have to install it under a user account. This is due to how Windows handles drivers. The drivers are available only when a user is logged in. And Boinc has to be started only after drivers have been loaded for it to see the GPU and use it. So re-install Boinc to run under user account.
