On: Displaying my washing machine's remaining time with curl, jq, and pizauth

Answering a slightly different question than the one you’re explicitly asking: I think then utility of this setup is being notified while you’re away from your machine.

I often leave clothes in the wash for 24 hours (or longer), and then they get all gross and I have to wash them again; this happens because I can’t hear the chime from my office, and with the way my brain works, I won’t think about it again until much later. I could set an alarm on my phone every time, but… that would require that I remember to do that.

I would love a way to either send a push notification to my phone, or have an audible house-wide chime, or something along those lines :)

The simple solution is just setting a timer on your phone for whatever time the washing machine says it needs when starting it.

Tie this into ntfy.sh and you've got the phone notification.
