Ah, nice. But I don't want to prevent messages from going to the
*Messages* buffer, I want to prevent them from appearing in the
minibuffer. For instance, I use this to automatically save the desktop
without being bothered by it

(run-with-timer (* 10 60) (* 10 60)
                (lambda ()
                 (flet ((message (&rest args) nil))
                   (desktop-save-in-desktop-dir))))
