wants to have cron, so I can ask it to check with my local parking agency, every day or every 12 hours, do I have a parking ticket, and to raise a warning if I do. Or to check with county jail and see if someone is still there/not there. Or check the price of a product on Amazon every hour and warn when it's changed (aka camelcamelcamel but local). Search craigslist/zillow/Facebook marketplace for items until one shows up. etc.
