This is really neat. It has me thinking about my own grandma who loves getting pictures on her phone, but is that the best interface for her? What if I could send pictures and they'd automatically print out, I think she'd like that even more. I think it's funny because that's a pretty easy thing to set up, but I never considered it until now.
- reaperducer 5y agoWhat if I could send pictures and they'd automatically print out I did that for my mother with a surplus Powerbook and an inkjet printer. I'd just VNC in and print out the picture. Worked great for a while. Then one day she dumped a cup of coffee into the keyboard. "Oh, it's no big deal. I'm sure you do it all the time," she said. End of pictures.
- throwaway316943 5y agoCombine this with the email based picture display and you’re set. Just an rPi and an inkjet.
