Got a couple of Raspberry Pi (Pies?) lying around.

What’s the coolest thing you have used a Pi for?

    Currently building a time tracking terminal with a MFRC522 card reader and a little 128x64 oled screen.
    Easy and simple with an externally reachable database which I'll integrate into our existing software later on.
    It's build in progress and I'm currently searching for a fitting case.

    Pi-hole was pretty handy, my own DHCP/DNS server which blocks adverts...

    RetroPi (meh),

    RFID-reading voting booth with a bunch of elasticsearch stuff (you know, for search),

    tv "screen saver" in office's open space (rotation between various sites and dashboards with revolver),

    floppy disk reader-based music instrument (easy and cool DIY project),

    and physical monitoring web-API to plug some leds in our monitoring tools.

    Might have some other projects with GPS coming in the future.
