Toot

Current status: Setting up a bunch of scheduled tasks on my machines while i'm away so I don't lose the remote links. Restart screenreader every hour, restart entire machine every day ... one thing I'm not sure how to do is to force a reboot if the system goes down somehow...

@zersiax can you set something up with wake on LAN? If you don't have an internal battery you could withdraw power for a fixed period when the machine is ordinarily off such that if it's crashed it'll die. Might end up stuck in a boot loop, I suppose.

@cachondo how'd I trigger it from afar though? I thought there were KVM switches that did this but i haven't found anything yet... could supposedly set it up so I can send a shutdown /r /f command from a still running machine but that'd only work if the machine is still aware enough to receive that command

@zersiax @cachondo Tell your BIOS to turn your machine back on after a power failure, then buy a plug you can control with an app or something.
