Ask HN: How can I run a program for 1 month against my will?
I wrote a program that does various things around my smart home at various times. I want this program to run for exactly 1 month, even against my will if I change my mind. What's an interesting way to try and achieve this?
Perhaps something along the lines of: starting the program in admin mode, having the password changed to something I don't know, having the password somehow revealed to me at the end of the month. That way, hopefully, the only way to stop the program is by reformatting or some other similar annoying barrier. Just a random idea.
