Give me something useful to do with my raspberry pi /g/.
you're supposed to know what you want to do with it before you buy it my dude
>>53709598
Use it to collect tons of dust
Made a server out of mine today. Go with something light or it will be redlined 24/7 like mine, pages take fucking forever to load
>>53709598
Install gentoo on it
>>53709615
brilliant, i've already got 4 months head start into this project.
Install a VPN server on it and use it to connect to with your mobile devices whenever you connect to public WiFi. You'll learn something.
SQL Server
Nigga pls
>>53709598
Setup an IRC server and post IP here.
Emulatiinstation system.
Or forward port 22 and post your IP here and see what /g/ does with it.
>>53709598
Use it to control a vibrating butt plug, post results on reddit.

The one thing mine is mostly used for is as a cheap media server (kodi), nearly every other project out there seems a bit pointless/gimmicky or I don't know how to do.
>>53709598
Are these things actually any good for learning purposes?

Combined seedbox and media centre. Dl movies and watch them in your living room. Plus private trackers
Check if your ISP allows outgoing SMTP traffic over port 25/tcp; register a domain name with anonymised WHOIS[1] lookup, and with DNSSEC[2]; install an authoritative name server on your Raspberry Pi and use it as name server for your domain; enable DNSSEC by signing your zone, with a good algorithm[3], salt[4], and NSEC version[5]; install an MTA[6], with SPF[7], DKIM[8], DMARC[9] checking, and a spam filter; add an MDA[10] for your MUAs[11]; add the appropriate RRs[12] in your domain, but also TLSA (DANE[13]), SSHFP[14], and OPENPGPKEY[15] RRs to take advantage of DNSSEC.
Happy emailing.

what do you guys think about making a torrent box?
>>53710393
Easy. Try transmission-daemon.
>>53710409
what hard drive do you recommend should i get a WD usb one? or something else? an sd card sounds bad
Install Arch on it.
>>53710423
Preferably an HDD with its own power source. Definitely if you use multiple USB peripherals.
put a battery on it, put it near free wifi and make it distribute CP while the feds and everyone wonder where the fuck all the cp is coming from
>>53709598
ODROID
>>53710451
That actually sounds hilarious
OP, plug in a wifi adapter, hide it in some hipster cafe
Turn it into an open hotspot with a starbucks ssid, but redirect all http requests to a local server that serves some really gross shit
>>53710343
Good for learning python.
>>53709598
Coded a little program, which checks if a specific cam-model is online. If so, then it's recording the stream.
I have a question: The raspberry pi 2 wokred really well and I rebooted it only every 2-3 weeks. One day the power went out and since this day it seems strange. The sd-card went corrupt and I needed to reinstall raspbian. But now if I start heavy work, after a while I get the error "command not found" for every command I type. Or the ssh-connection interrupts or it's just not responding.
What could be the reason? Hardware is the same, I changed nothing.
>>53711539
Sounds to me like you need a new sd card. If not, it's the ram and you're screwed.
I use mine as a Wake-on-LAN server.
I can do it either remotely, or at a certain time in the morning so my desktop PC starts heating up my room with Folding@Home. Comfy warm mornings.
>>53711578
How to check the sd-card if it has errors?
Did the raspberry pi go up in price recently? I could swear it was no more than $30 when I bought the raspberry pi 2, now the same device is no less than $50.
I'm switching to odroid next upgrade, way better value.
>>53711599
I dunno, check google or ask an expert?
>>53711607
The orange pis have best value as far as I can tell.
