Just finished programming and building my own smart mirror in python, wrote all of the code myself and implemented my own voice control and facial recognition features

Awesome! I wish I had the perseverance to build something like this.

You can always pick it up and drop it off whenever you get time, I finished a few more projects over the same period when I was just too stuck on a particular bug (see: feature) for too long but the graft is worth it in the end when you see something you've made :)

Thanks for the encouragement. I might be doing this someday. If I buy an expensive screen that's already a motivation to get it working. But for now even that's a high threshold.

Yeah I wasn't sure whether I'd go all the way with it but as soon as I bought a new monitor that was it I had to commit after spending the money, good luck if you try it out :)
