Apparently I'm getting a Raspberry Pi 2 for Christmas.

What should I do with it first?
>>
>>51901862
try to do some IoT proyect,
maybe turn on/off something on your house.
>>
>>51901862
make a tor exit node and put it on your neighbor's wifi
>>
>>51901862
a) Set up dual-boot between Raspian and OpenELEC.
b) Get a small 4-port USB hub and attach a couple of good external harddrives
c) ???
d) profit
>>
>>51901862
make sure you get the whole little kit anon (~US$65), otherwise you won't be able to use it until you get all the little necessities like a pwr supply, hdmi cable, microSD card.
>>
>>51901862
build a jukebox with a UI and a mobile app that lets you choose the song.
>>
>>51902001
Kodi is a thing
>>
>>51902001
Honestly that sounds like a lot of effort to create something that will used maybe once.
>>
>>51901862
Make a Tor relay.
>>
>>51901862
throw it directly into the trash because you're going to spend around 60 hours tinkering with it and maybe one hour tops actually playing with it.
>>
>>51902112
you can maybe use it on parties =B
but watch this answer:
>>51902045
it is already done.
>>
>>51901862
Stick it up your ass
>>
>>51902176
Isn't the tinkering the whole point to these things?
>>
Create a gentoobian distro
>>
>>51901979
like no one has those lying around
>>
Run small services that technically your more powerful could easily run, but that you don't need to have on your main computer.

I have mine setup to run Redmine and also to email me the results of my online job that I automated.
>>
>>51901960
The rPi 2 has 4 usb ports to begin with, and it's really easier to control via ssh than mouse & keyboard.
Mine's a media center holding around 2000 movies and TV episodes to free up space occupied by DVDs.
My pi B will soon be an email/web server for pretty just me.
You could also throw out ordinary routers in favor of a switch and wireless AP and leave the pi the job of routing, sure it's only 10/100 but what home router isn't?
>>
Sell it on Craigslist or another used-goods marketplace.
>>
>>51901920

>>
>>51904581

>>51901862
Christian, I gave your girl friend the heads up. I thought you would like it :^)

Even this shit much better.

Tip: Don't run a tor relay if you want to use websites that use Cloudflare.

They detect it and ban you from most websites, including 4chan.

Learned that from experience
>>
>>51905967
>using Cloudflare
>instead just wrap all traffic through via tor
What are you baka sinzi, aren't you?
