I currently do a lot of my monitoring via MQTT for my solar system etc. I currently use MQTT Alert and set up my alerts to ring my phone at top volume until silenced. But I have missed more than one alert because I don’t think the background agent is always active and it doesn’t necessarily start when I reboot the phone. While the application does “monitor” the MQTT connection, it only makes a short sound if it drops, with no followup until you notice that there was a notification and go back into it to figure out why the connection is down.
Does anyone have foolproof way of getting things like security alerts that will always trigger on the phone, without having to check the phone 10 times a day to be sure the application is on and the connection is active?
And uhhh which solar system would that be, exactly?
The one we are currently in I assume.
Proxima Centauri is pretty weird with it’s three gravitationally bound suns (Alpha Centauri A and B), who would set up alerrs for that?
/s
There is only one Solar system, the star system of Sol. Proxima Centauri is part of a star system
But the joke doesn’t work if you are pedantic.
The latency on those alerts is a problem.
Gotta remember to enable Quantum Entanglement… Takes a lot more power, but solves the problem.
i’ve heard the accuracy is off with those… but cmon 50% still means it’s right half the time
And a lot more pre-planning.
I hear the API development for alpha centauri is pretty far behind its peer.
So we should all be using Beta Centauri?
This is my summer solar system. I like to winter in the Antares.
I don’t get it either
Think galaxy not panels.
