Uninstall tuned Package

An XCCDF Rule

Description

The tuned package can be removed with the following command: 

$ sudo dnf erase tuned

Rationale

tuned contains a daemon that tunes the system settings dynamically. It does so by monitoring the usage of several system components periodically. Based on that information, components will then be put into lower or higher power savings modes to adapt to the current usage.
