@mckinley on the one hand, I'm glad it's not beeping more than it is. On the other hand, it's beeping way too much.

@mckinley the hackey way would be to modify https://github.com/berthubert/googerteller/blob/9eb0527eee581dfb67fab47f1932b3fb4a3ac095/trackers.conf#L1 if I'm understanding their code correctly.
