It's my first reasonably free Saturday in a while, and I think I'm going to spend some time playing around with my newly arrived raspberry pi! It's currently functioning as a basic Kodi media centre and nothing else, but it seems a good tool for learning a bit about Linux systems and networking. Things I'd like to look into:

• Always-on torrentbox: transmission with webclient, set up openvpn to tunnel torrent traffic but leave normal traffic. Seems a good way to learn some basic linux networking stuff

• LAMP server to host a WP blog or something. Not sure i really need this, but could be fun to set up.

And maybe later:

• ADS-B logging with RTL-SDR. I don't have the hardware at the moment, but SDR seems interesting and I'm sure it'd force me to learn new stuff about processing real-time datastreams.

What're you guys doing with SBCs? Anyone have any cool projects they'd like to share?

Update: I've just spent the last six hours repeatedly failing to solve a problem that turned out to just be DNS. In hindsight, that's pretty much what I should have expected
