Reminder Notification (3.8) - Persist(only the actual reminder)

[emo333]

First, OMARCHY IS THE BOMB BABAYYYY!!!

Loving the new "Reminders" in 3.8...

One small thing that takes away from it's usefulness (<-- is that a word?) is that when the actual reminder triggers (displays), it disappears (mako times it out after it's default of 5 seconds). So, unless you had your eyes on the display during that timeframe, you would miss the reminder. Seems like this sort of notification is one the user explicitly "asked for" and would not want it to time out.

I am fairly certain (it worked on my box! lol) the following would be all it would take:

'~/.local/share/omarchy/bin/omarchy-reminder'

EXISTING

systemd-run --user --quiet --collect --on-active="${minutes}m" --unit="$unit" \
  bash -c 'omarchy-notification-send -g 󰔛 "Reminder" "$1" -u critical; rm -f "$2"' bash "$message" "$message_file"

SUGGESTED

systemd-run --user --quiet --collect --on-active="${minutes}m" --unit="$unit" \
  bash -c 'omarchy-notification-send -g 󰔛 "Reminder" "$1" -t 0 -u critical; rm -f "$2"' bash "$message" "$message_file"

** only added the '-t 0'

Two more features I would like to add -

1. option to add a absolute time.
Currently it acts like a timer which counts down and reminds you in few minutes - which is perfect. but I would also want a alarm like behavior where I can input the time 4:00pm and it calculates the timer under the hood itself - will be convenient.

2. Full Screen Overlay
As highlighted in the issue - its actually very easy to miss these reminders as the notification either

• Disappears before I get chance to look at it.
• Gets lost in all of the notifications which I dismiss collectively.

A full screen escapable overlay with a dark fade black backdrop will be very much usefull and unlock the actual use of these reminders.

cuz a reminder is to interrupt me from whatever I am doing (like a cpu interrupt :)

Of course, this can be customizable whether I want a notification or a full screen interrupt overlay.
