So many times I forget to plug the deck or someone uses the charging cable for something else and I come back to play the next weekend and the deck is at 0%. Why doesn’t the deck have a deep sleep or hibernate mode on by default like my laptop or iPad?

There's an option to automatically shutdown when battery drops to X%

Where, if I might ask? I looked under every setting in the UI and couldn’t find it. Is it somewhere in the bowels if desktop mode? I only use the deck as an appliance, like a switch. Maybe it would be better to wipe and install windows?

Just got to the KDE plasma settings and look under power saving.

Where do I find it? I've gone all through the settings and the developer settings, is it in desktop mode?

Yes, it's one of KDE Plasma's settings.
