I’ve recently got my PC up and running again but today it’s rebooted randomly twice. What could this be a sign of? All advice is welcomed and appreciated. Thanks in advance.

How new are you to Linux?* /gen
Have you checked the output of, say, “journalctl -b -2”? This would give you a system log of messages that go back to two boot sessions ago and normally show you what happened just before that first shutdown.
This could be drivers, background processes, hardware, no way to know without starting by looking at logs. Hell, I’ve had a monitor crash out my system multiple times and I wouldn’t have ever guessed if I didn’t check my logs and dmesg output.

First, sorry of the late response.
Second, running that command with the
-rparameter it returns this:Feb 13 17:24:45 [user] rtkit-daemon[1064]: Supervising 10 threads of 6 processes of 1 users.Feb 13 17:24:45 [user] rtkit-daemon[1064]: Supervising 10 threads of 6 processes of 1 users.Feb 13 17:24:45 [user] rtkit-daemon[1064]: Supervising 10 threads of 6 processes of 1 users.Feb 13 17:24:45 [user] rtkit-daemon[1064]: Supervising 10 threads of 6 processes of 1 users.Feb 13 17:24:33 [user] rtkit-daemon[1064]: Supervising 10 threads of 6 processes of 1 users.Feb 13 17:24:33 [user]rtkit-daemon[1064]: Supervising 10 threads of 6 processes of 1 users.Feb 13 17:23:31 [user] rtkit-daemon[1064]: Supervising 10 threads of 6 processes of 1 users.Feb 13 17:23:31 [user] rtkit-daemon[1064]: Supervising 10 threads of 6 processes of 1 users.Feb 13 17:22:46 [user] wpa_supplicant[957]: wlan0: CTRL-EVENT-SIGNAL-CHANGE above=1 signal=-63 noise=999>Feb 13 17:22:34 [user] rtkit-daemon[1064]: Supervising 10 threads of 6 processes of 1 users.Feb 13 17:22:34 [user] rtkit-daemon[1064]: Supervising 10 threads of 6 processes of 1 users.Feb 13 17:22:08 [user] rtkit-daemon[1064]: Supervising 10 threads of 6 processes of 1 users.Feb 13 17:22:08 [user] rtkit-daemon[1064]: Supervising 10 threads of 6 processes of 1 users.Feb 13 17:21:24 [user] flatpak[9501]: (17:21:24) INFO: [Gog]: GOG presence setFeb 13 17:21:23 [user] flatpak[9501]: (17:21:23) INFO: [Gog]: Running command: GOGDL_CON>Feb 13 17:21:20 [user] rtkit-daemon[1064]: Supervising 10 threads of 6 processes of 1 users.Feb 13 17:21:20 [user] rtkit-daemon[1064]: Supervising 10 threads of 6 processes of 1 users.Feb 13 17:20:59 [user] wireplumber[1097]: wp-event-dispatcher: <WpAsyncEventHook:0x5be0f8feaff0> failed:>Feb 13 17:20:34 [user] rtkit-daemon[1064]: Supervising 10 threads of 6 processes of 1 users.Feb 13 17:20:34 [user] rtkit-daemon[1064]: Supervising 10 threads of 6 processes of 1 users.Feb 13 17:20:23 [user] rtkit-daemon[1064]: Supervising 10 threads of 6 processes of 1 users.Feb 13 17:20:23 [user] rtkit-daemon[1064]: Supervising 10 threads of 6 processes of 1 users.Feb 13 17:20:23 [user] rtkit-daemon[1064]: Supervising 10 threads of 6 processes of 1 users.Feb 13 17:20:23 [user] rtkit-daemon[1064]: Supervising 10 threads of 6 processes of 1 users.lines 1-24All good. From my non-professional perspective so far it mostly looks like real-time-kit is pretty active, which seems to be primarily for enabling audio.
Are you having issues with audio? Or are you maybe having trouble with GOG after you start it?
Kinda of. About 6 months ago, my speakers stopped outputting sound from their proper port on the I/O. Speakers themselves still worked as connecting them to the headphone port produced sound. When I put my PC back together about two weeks ago the sound problem persisted but this time switching sound profiles in the sound setting then switching back to the default, strangely, fixed the problem. It came at the caveat that I have to do it every time at reboot.
FYI you can add
-rto show the log in reverse order.
