I've been programming for a few years and I'm finally teaching myself Python. So I have to ask, what are some cool things I can do with Python, /g/?

I made this a 4chan image/videos downloader for fun using BeautifulSoup4 and lxml: https://bitbucket.org/mvnDaMan/4chan_downloader/src
I wrote a program that bots for me in Runescape.
That's really the only cool thing I've done with Python. Nigga just mines shit all day for me. Also wrote one that kills chickens.
Pretty easy-tier

Anything you can do in any other touring-complete language as well

All I used was livestreamer + beautifulsoup
