What ways are there to leave a script running, while my pc is not running/not being used?

19 views Asked by At

I am currently to pulling Tweets through the X/Twitter API, now I would like to leave the script running over the weekend to collect as many tweets as possible (within Twitters limits ofc) to later analyze them/work with them. As of right now I have the python script in VS Code and saved on the company laptop.

My "last resort" idea would be to just use a while true loop and leave the PC running, but obviously that's a lot of wasted power on my part.

Could I just save the script as a document in a folder on my company's server (I don't have special rights for that) and let it run from there somehow? (I don't have immediate access to a raspberry pi, sadly that won't be an option)

I'm not necessarily looking for a perfect guide or answer, some ideas or recommendations what to look into would already be very appreciated.
