For those who are locked down and need a haircut badly enough to do it themselves.
It’s hard to properly cut hair on the side and back of my head when I can’t see it – so I’d love to be able to have a mirror that on command will (wait long enough for me to turn around and) take a photo, and display it long enough for me to evaluate what I’ve done.
I’m aware that it might take a bit more hardware and some coding, but need ideas as to how to proceed.
Has anyone else seen this: https://www.zdnet.com/article/say-hello-to-ubuntu-frame/
I’m wondering if it might apply to MagicMirror, and if so, how?
Re: Contrasting text on changing background
Having a tough time with the above; I want to do more subtle stuff. But this seems to be a good start:

Will MMM-NewsAPI allow displaying full articles in an iFrame?
Maybe an answer:
Gonna try splicing template.html into a responsive iFrame.
Wish me luck!
@mumblebaj said in Problem with MMM-email:
@mwm341 I get the following error when I run with the same config as you:
I had to rename the folder but I am getting some other weird errors. I am not too sure if this module still works. Seems like the developer last looked at it 5 years ago.
I was wondering about that
@mwm341 … and this is what I got when I ran it.

THE APP SAW MY MESSAGE!!
Once.
Didn’t show me though; it showed up in the logs.
Nothing else since.
@mwm341 Digging around a bit (on a brand-new account somewhere else) turns THIS up:
20.08.2021 07:45.15.461] [LOG] Email notifier error: Error: Timed out while connecting to server

at listOnTimeout (internal/timers.js:549:17)
at processTimers (internal/timers.js:492:7) {
source: ‘timeout’
}
…and it doesn’t change, no matter what I do.
Grrr!
I think a module change might be in order.
@mumblebaj Done. Mail is being delivered to a dedicated (google) mailbox – but nothing gets to the mirror, and there’s nothing showing up in the logs except
