My project: Apple //e as a dumb terminal to my Raspberry Pi with Arch Linux ARM.

Also, Raspbian.

And I can use my RPi as a modem to connect to BBS. And I can use it to push WiFi through Ethernet to my Uthernet II card so I can use Contiki.

Forgot pic

buy a real computer poorfags

ive used mine as a mumble server, car airplay radio but its currently a nas machine

I'm making a Wifi hotspot serving a Facebook phishing

Neato. Got any pics of it in action?

Looks like you have an Apple Pi.

Making a shitty emulation console from a pi 3, a cigar box, some acrylic, and other shit.

Having a hard time getting n64 and dreamcast titles to run though. I'm wondering if my power amp is low at 2.1a?

Sorry, 1.8a in the 5v. Do i need to go higher for smoother emulation?

I've used my as an anal pleasure server.

I use mine to stop a small portion of my desk from getting dusty

underrated

You should use a 2.5A power supply
It wont have any effect on emulation speed though

Any tips for what I can use mine besides Pi-Hole? I mean, simultaneously. It feels kinda useless, just sitting there besides my router.

mumble server and irc bot

ssh-box

Mumble server looks interesting, thanks.

Which is the best version of the Raspberry Pi hardware?

Should I be concerned with botnets or eavesdropping? How secure is Raspbian?

Pi 3: more ram, faster quad core, more USB ports...
Or Pi 0, because it's five dollars.
>Should I be concerned
No moreso than usual. My only complaint about Raspbian is the updater is hella slow.

How much RAM does Pi 3 have versus Pi 0?
I am weighing my options.

Fuck, did google stop working again? Let me fix it for you real quick.
Okay, try it now.

Sorry, I was just using Yahoo search.

I use mine as a public web server for my friends and I to share files.

kek

do you use apache?

nginx

Store in my drawer.

Beaglebone Black is fully debotnetted if you don't need video acceleration.

Change the default pass and you're fine.

But yeah my cousin wrote a simple script to log into any Internet-connected Pi with default credentials.

i've changed the password because of your cousin and his big hacks

watch out he's l33t hell haxx ur ass

I work at a theater and the production manager has a pi hooked into the video system to show stills of upcoming shows
He can remote in an update it whenever
Probably the only real-world use of a pi I've seen. Also my respect for him shot up, a lot of people in the a/v world are nerds but I had a coworker come over and point at a motherboard and say "what the fuck is that?"

I'll have to get one then, will any 2.5a do? Also, if that won't affect emulation speed, then why is mine so laggy for n64 and dreamcast games that are listed as atable, and there are videos of them playing fine online?

Do I need to configure something, or overclock?

obviously place it on the back of a thermostat and hack the net. pi's are only good for bringing down capitalism.

wtf do i do with my pi zero that I got at microcenter for $5

Gotta overclock

Shove it into your anus and install gentoo

It will be remarkable.

Go buy the $25 worth of parts that you need to make it useful.

I`m not that creative

fuck microcenter!

I drove two ours to philly because they said they had 2 left in stock and when I got there the assholes said they've been sold out for about two weeks. I felt like that pajeet was secretly hiding them.

>driving that far without calling ahead first to see if they could verify their stock in store was accurately reflecting their website
Honestly that was all your fault m8, especailly if there was only 2 left, too easy for stock counts to be wrong, couple to be damaged, etc

This... If im even driving 20 minutes to a place, I call, ask for them to check stock, if they have it, I ask for them to hold I at the service desk or equivalent, and give them my name and phone number, and say that I'll be in that day to get it.

It's almost as if you guys don't even have crippling anxiety disorders.

>claims to have crippling anxiety disorder
>proceeds to argue with a panjeet after driving two hours
Apparently not crippling enough, you're just stupid I guess

>implying I'm him
My microcenter is like 10 minutes away and has 50+ pi zeroes.

This is here.
Unfortunately there is no microcenter within 2 hours of me (2.5-2.75 hours to the closest two), fortunately for me though, there is a Shields Electronic about 20 minutes away.

Should I avoid attempting to OC until I get my new power adapter? I do have a 2.1a available, but cant get a 2.5a until my next paycheck.

Just bought mine a week ago, using it for retropi, gonna get a fan case soon and overclock for n64 and dreamcast games

same here but i don't live that far from Philly.

Build a OBD-II reader.

i want to build a remote solar+battery powered portable torrent box that steals wifi
just throw it in the roof or hide it in a tree near free hotspot or your office

The only reason I drove out that far was because it was a week after it was launched and it was sold out everywhere online. I wouldn't normally do that for a computer.

Buy all of them and make a cluster

As an emulation machine, Pi3modelB overclock is the best choice right? I just want something I can carry around.

so hipster~

u code in that piece of screen?

home-assistant.io

program it to be your very own vpn

>it still uses your network
What's the point?

I am considering this, however would it be worth using it as a VPN if it's going to stay on my home network?

fuck i wanna get one of those old monochrome crts, never run into them in the wild though and ordering them online is too damn expensive.

nice setup famalam

anybody else pick one of these up? pretty similar to the rpi, hope it gets a similar community. really impressed with mine so far, build quality is significantly higher than you'd reasonably expect for the price range and you don't get all the extra expenses that come with the rpi. anyone using theirs for anything cool?

Probably not, but if you live somewhere where nobody gives a shit what you do online anyway (and have a decent speed) you could sell VPN services to a few people. I'd do it myself if I didn't have limited bandwidth.

I currently have Pi2+cameraV1 for live stream, can a Pi3+cameraV2 lower the latency and give more quality?

I was lucky. Got it for free.

That's 4 hours of work at worst.
Look into airbase-ng

I am still waiting for mine, fuck next thing.

Is it possible to connect to the PI via WIFI from my android phone and then use my phoneas a touchscreen to control the PI?

What is it good for? I though ssh was only used to connect to various services like ftp securely

How is Flash performance on 3? Can someone test out NicoNicoDouga (requires free login)?

>using flash

OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

>Having a hard time getting n64 and dreamcast titles to run though.

So does everyone else. PSX is basically as far as the smooth and fluid emulation you're looking for is going to get you.

Wait till you get the 2.5 amp power supply you'll also need a proper cooling method, I'm using heat sinks for both processors and a fan case powered by the gipo pins

But everyone on youtube runs mario kart 64 in 4 player mode, as well as goldeneye, oot, etc without issue.

Some games become playable without overclock if you downgrade the resolution within the emulator to 400x600 cea-1 or something like that

aren't there whole websites/wiki for this? why, then, should we have a thread dedicated to this?
at least you could make it more generic, "small computers general" or something

I need a screen so I can make a calendar. Would want it to pull from my owncloud calendar. The screen would just be for display. Might add a shitty cheap camera in order to give it some very minor motion controls. Also have it turn off unless someone walks in front of it.

Current project:
Two one-phase 280V relays controlled by a rPi3 with the official 7" touch screen.

I'm adding 5 DS18B20 waterproof temperature sensors and a DHT22/AM2302 temperature and humidity sensor.
I'm going to use temperature and humidity as parameters which i can manually set stop and start limits using the touch display.

Use cases will be mostly brewing but as the relays goes up to 280V 10A, i can also use it for heating up garage/cars etc.

What does raspi general think of eltechs.com/product/exagear-desktop/

My idea is a clock you can set for a different time for each day

I recognize that (porn) artist

My VPN which uses my workplace's internet instead of my own?

>eltechs.com/product/exagear-desktop/
Shit dude, I might need to try this out some time.
Looks interesting.

Probably try it tomorrow, sick as fuck today, had no sleep. Fun times.

new to rapsberry pi general but

what would be the best way to hook up mulitple cameras to the pi and stream it over the internet like a surveillance system?

For when you use public Wi-Fi. It's not for hiding from the gubmint

how does gentoo run on arm though? the gentoo wiki's got nothing about pi 0

Fuck. I misspelled Raspberry. My apologies.

Reportedly it also fully supports WiNE as well...
