How long does the update timer wait before beginning updates?

Solution:
20 mins after boot and 6 hours after that. the script it runs on that timer checks if the correct conditions are met (battery level, not playing a game, cpu usage, etc) once the update starts and you lets say fire up a game then system76-scheduler sets the update as the lowest priority on the system so it does not interfere with your games performance...

that's neat. I understand you're supposed to just let the system autoupdate but i end up doing the system update by myself before the timer has a chance lol a habit from arch i guess 💀 is there a way to see what's changed after an automatic update like what's shown when you do it manually?
