So my dad just handed me a free Raspberry Pi or whatever these things are called.
I have no programming skills at all, im a junior system admin so I only know basic scripting a little.
How or where do I even begin and what should I even do with it? I have no idea what this thing is capable of.

It's just a shitty pc. If you're a junior sys admin make it into some server idk. VPN, home dhcp/dns/mail servers and stuff.
>>55227431
Its a fucking computer
Use it like you use any other computer so just install a OS and download some tranny porn. Not that hard
install gnu/linux on it
Just put Kodi on it.

>im a junior system admin
It is tiny baby man compooter. It runs tiny baby man loonix.
Turn it into a radio transmitter.
>>55227431
Home server?
>>55227613
What's the point
use it to run a mumble server
>>55227431
Wow they really do hire retarded junior sys admins these days
>>55227431
Google might help you
Hint: you don't need to learn programming
Tor exit node on a public WiFi

LOL
Turn it into a paperweight.

> Jr sys admin
>can't make anything useful from Raspberry Pi
Step your game up, senpai. I wish I could get a Rasp Pi, but I'm broke. Put that to good use.

Why did you blur out the picture of the board?

Or maybe, just maybe, the plastic case is frosted, you fucking retard.

They have IO pins. My Dad got me an RPi Zero so I just soldered some on and now I'm going to make an LED strip driver.

Gahdahm ur thick

Loonix? Get back to Canada! It is not an eagle, therefore it isn't American!

I can tell you're trying to make a meme post, it was only a little bit funny though
>>55227431
That's why you are nothing but a lowly server jockey

If I was more of a faggot I'd post a frog

this sort of fag is saturating the market, pretty soon we'll be paid less than starting salary plumbers, since those fags have unions and shit.

You begin by using google and installing gentoo you qt3.14 little junior sysadmin.
>>55230513
You already are. Plumbers make good money man
>>55227431
Topkek. Even baby boomers are falling for the meme.
>>55229548
because this is a worksafe board :^)

The one in the OP image looked like maybe a model B+, which you could probably get secondhand pretty cheap
>>55232079
i've made a huge mistake
pi hole

If you actually had differentiable skills, you wouldn't be worried about other idiots "saturating the market"
If idiots are crowding what you do for a living, you are an idiot
Set up a samba server so you can watch pr0n from everywhere in the world.
Use it to make your printer wireless.
Turn it into a retro gaming console.
Make a web crawler/bot that posts "penis" on reddit/4chan all day.
>>55230513
Unionize aspie, maybe if you guys would talk to each other and demand rights n shit that wouldn't be an issue.
Shit you guys got skills, you can form your own snobby trade union n shit to have it get busted 20 years from now when everyone is a computer.

>my dad just handed me a free Raspberry Pi
Oh, you mean your dad didn't hand it to you and immediately demand payment? Those things are pricey, I'm glad you specified that it was free so that we didn't think you were rich!
>...or whatever these things are called.
No, shut the fuck up, you know as well as everyone else that it's called a Raspberry Pi. Don't feign ignorance, you're clearly stupid enough to begin with. No need to exaggerate.
Your dad got you a wonderful gift in the hopes that it will spark further curiosities in the field, expand your horizons, and help you achieve higher lifelong earnings. Your dad is smart enough to know that working as a junior system administrator and having essentially zero software engineering skills is a recipe for being made redundant before your 30th birthday.
The way your posts are written makes it clear that you're a complacent, helpless little baby. I feel bad for your father for being naive enough to still have hope that you'll wind up making something of yourself.
