Some of the more ingenious projects I've reported on were born from limitations. While tinkerers will gladly load up their gadgets with as many features as possible, things change when they want to make something for someone who may not be as big of a tech geek as they are. Such is the case of this lovely Raspberry Pi project that allowed a grandma to keep up with the family's Telegram group with minimal interaction.
