Current Behavior

Session is too aggressive with polling for updates.
While actual update check is set to 30, the app spams system log with polling for system update every minute.

Even after disabling Auto update, it still keeps polling.

Expected Behavior

If update interval is set to 30 minutes, actual polling should be set 30 minutes as well.
Session eats enough CPU as it is, which is very noticeable on weaker hardware and when on battery.

Steps To Reproduce

1. Enable "Auto update" in Preferences
2. Watch system log for update checks every minute (journalctl --user -f)

Desktop Version

1.7.7
