I'm beginning to regret buying into the "$5" meme.
what is the point of this thread
>>52371060
no mini display port to vga adaptor?
>>52371060
What's this ?
No ethernet or wifi?
>>52371127
Looks like a Raspberry Pi Zero.
it's only limitations are your creativity so what does that say about you?
>>52371060
Are those thumbtacks?
>>52371060
>mini hdmi to hdmi to dvi to vga
I think it's more of an electronics hobbyist gadget than a programmers one. Hence all the connections to be soldered to.
What meme is this??
>>52371256
pi zero
>>52371089
The Pi came with the MHDMI>HDMI adapter, the screen came with the VGA>DVI adapter, and the DVI>HDMI adapter was like $2.
>>52371127
A Raspberry Pi Zero with all the basic connections required connections for it to get input, output, and storage.
>>52371128
That's next on my list. I'm thinking I might have to solder on the GPIO header and put the keyboard there, and then get a USB>Ethernet adapter.
>>52371192
yes
>>52371214
I WAS planning on using it as a NAS controller - my current one is a five year old Dell laptop running WinServe2016 which, while still operating relatively normally, no longer has a functional GPU.
Apparently I underestimated how much the thing can actually do.
>>52371324
Nas controller, how can you connect hdd to it?
>>52371368
Yeah that's what I just realized I can't do.
I didn't realize before it arrived that there's no separate power port. I figured I could have the network in one USB port, the HDD in the other, and the keyboard on the GPIO. But nope.
>>52371324
For a nas server get the $50 orange pi plus 2.
Better cpu, more ram, built in sata, and gigabit lan.
Also built in wifi if that's what you prefer.
>>52371060
>be a brainless nigger
>buy a le may may $5 developter board
>HEY GUYS I'M TRYING TO USE IT AS A DESKTOP COMPUTER AND I REGRET IT LELELELE EXCDEE
literally shoot yourself
>>52371450
Is there anything...well, cheaper?
The server itself will be connected to a 10/100 switch so gigabit lan doesn't matter
Don't really want to spend more than $30 or so on this, considering my old server is technically still serving files on my network so I'm not too desperate to change it
>>52371485
learn how to read
>>52371060
pi 1 and 2 owner here....once it does not have Ethernet or wifi its a fucking waste. With the pi1&2 you booth the OS plug in the ethernet cable and SSH into it....install remote desktop and you're good to go.

>only limitations
topkek
>>52371514
$15 orange pi
you could condense it all down to a network connection of some sort and use SSH
>>52371965
Problem is, I need to actually have it set up first to do that.
Wait is there not a power button on this thing?
I plugged it into the wall but it won't turn on.
What are you actually using this for?
The idea of plugging random cords into a chip on my wall intrigues me
>>52372044
No you don't.
>>52371060
Why does /v/ keep buying cheap dev boards and then complaining about how hard and stupid it is to use them like you would a normal desktop PC?
>>52371718
This.
Built in megabit lan, 3 usb ports and one otg.
Same processor as the 50 dollar board, but with only 1gb ram instead.
Amazing value for $15
>>52371324
>Apparently I underestimated how much the thing can actually do.
overestimated. And that's still not right; you purchased something without knowing quite what it is.
>>52372557
How would I SSH into a computer that doesn't have SSH set up, then?

Looks pretty cool, I'll check it out. Thanks.

What's the best memeberry pi? For recreational programming.
>>52371060
There was a dude that did a 20GPIO port to VGA adapter. Might suit you better than... that
>>52373405
>see >>52371594
You're either misunderstanding what the OP is saying, or misunderstanding what the posts you reply to are saying
>How would I SSH into a computer that doesn't have SSH set up, then?
You also apparently have no idea how to use a computer
>>52373431
The computer you currently have is fine for recreational programming.
>>52371060

Just buy a htpc kiddo, this stuff is clearly not for you

Get a used pi2 or if you really want android/better lan/separate usb controller get a banana pi.
>>52372984

Is this 1993?
>>52373591
it is enabled by default you fuqin cunt read your fuqin documentation you cock sucking faggot! Plug in the ethernet cable check your router for the connected ip then connect with putty to port 22 Username: pi Password: raspberry you're welcome you fucking faggot! oh and enjoy your pi -=)
>>52371060
Do any of these boards have dual GbE, and ideally AES offloading?
I'd like to make a tiny custom router that's not complete shit.
>>52371324
>>52371060
I have some problems to use mine
I'm using hdmi output from rpi, an vga/hdmi converter to connect my vga input monitor.
and I tried to connect my composite output rpi to my RCA input television
but nothing appear on my screens.
>>52375799
How can someone look so attractive while throwing up 0_0 *-*
>>52371398
They make these neat things call USB hubs
lel how does that port hold the weight of all those adapters and cable
>>52376249
Are you using an active adapter?
VGA is analog. HDMI is digital.
>>52376473
I have two adapters and tested with it, one converter, and not the other one
What kind of nas speeds can you get on that? My google search turned up results from 1MB/s to 7-8MB/s. I get 7-10MB/s with a usb hdd attached to my router, so i see no point in a pi nas if a router is faster.
>>52375799
I'm sorry, but what?
For $15 thats an amazing deal.
I dare you to find anything better for op but I'll give you $20 instead of 15.
>>52378974
There's a reason why it's cheap ya gook.
See my previous post.
>>52371060
Faggots buying SJW garbage...disgraceful.
>>52378974
>>52379074
Also, it's $15 + shipping + import duties + charger because it cant charge over usb
Why even bother shilling this chink shit?

It's still cheaper than the rpi after all those costs. Also has a better cpu and gpu.
>>52379121
could you fags stop buying them in batch?
no wonder they're always sold out
>>52376236

>>52371060
>I'm beginning to regret buying into the "$5" meme.
Because it was fucking meant to be used as an overpowered microcontroller with all those GPIO pins not a fucking full fledged computer. So is you're disappointed, great, because that's your own fucking fault for buying something you don't even need.
>>52380390
>overpowered microcontroller with all those GPIO pins
It completely sucks as a microcontroller though.
No real-time units, only basic digital pins and very limited hardware pwm.
Just buy a cheap chinese digikey clone for a dollar for low-level electronics. Just as retard-friendly as the Pi.

>>52371642
WTF man, im a Pi1, 2, A and many other small SoC boards owner and Ethernet is required only for certain tasks... a Pi Zero is SOOO MUCH over hyped, people buy it to be a hipster.
A zero is for these small nice projects you dont need Ethernet for, no output or input unless you only need hdmi for some visual project.
N00bs learn the art of selecting the specific board for its task, there is no allrounder.
>>52379121
>bough 20 for $125 total
How much did you spend on power cables and SD cards?
Give it to me so, ya damn cuck
