Can't try common method to prevent (google) colab from disconnecting

Common fix to google colab fails

Google colab times out after 30-90 mins instead of 12 hours, and trying

function ConnectButton(){
    console.log("Working"); 
    document.querySelector("#connect").click() 
}
setInterval(ConnectButton,60000);

raises errors in the inspector view. Is there a screenshot or different solution to prevent colab from disconnecting? I've already tried this solution and it doesn't work. Thanks for help in advance.

there are many ways to solve this problem, these scripts become obsolete after a while, because google isn't stupid..

I advise you to write a script for example in python that provides to make clicks for you like this:

import numpy as np
import time
import mouse

while True:
    random_row = np.random.random_sample()*100
    random_col = np.random.random_sample()*10
    random_time = np.random.random_sample()*np.random.random_sample() * 100
    mouse.wheel(1000)
    mouse.wheel(-1000)
    mouse.move(random_row, random_col, absolute=False, duration=0.2)
    mouse.move(-random_row, -random_col, absolute=False, duration = 0.2)
    mouse.LEFT
    time.sleep(random_time)

or you can generate a new cell using this javascript script like this: 

function ClickConnect(){ 
    console.log("Working"); 
    document.querySelector("colab-toolbar-button").click() 
} setInterval(ClickConnect,60000)
