    What do you use your Raspberry Pi for?

    Time to bump this thread with the release of the new Raspberry Pi! I've got the new one sitting on my desk. Awaiting a new MicroSD from Amazon to arrive so I can tinker with it. Planning a Plex server with it.

    Raspberry Pi 2

    I mean, it's a little bizarre but not anything I'd really worry all that much about. For most it won't be an issue, not all flashes do it (The flash on my Galaxy S3 is LED based) and it doesn't kill the Pi... just causes an inconvenience of having it stop/restart.

    ColoCrossing's Buffalo, NY network is slowing down? Too many Spammers?

    I don't have anything in that location. May be worth pining Biloh or Vial and see if they have anything to say on it. Will likely find a lot more folks on LET using that location but there will be some here too that can chime in. Have you ticketed CC about this yet?

    Raspberry Pi 2

    It doesn't actually harm the Pi... just causes it to reset/reboot when powered on from what I understand. Just reboot and it'll be back to normal.

    Raspberry Pi 2

    It's been mentioned in a few places today. It's now known, but interestingly enough this isn't the first time a component or piece of electrical equipment has experienced this... http://www.nrc.gov/reading-rm/doc-collections/gen-comm/info-notices/1997/in97082.html...

    Blondes or Brunettes?

    Different strokes for different folks. Some guys like girls with blonde hair. Some guys like them with red hair. Some like them with black, brown, or crazy hair-dyed colored hair. Some guys don't care. Some guys don't like girls, regardless of their hair color. Who cares?

    Things to consider when choosing Colocation?

    Thanks for the updates everyone. Still looking into this. I'm not in any real rush to proceed with this, but do appreciate the comments. The server in question is a Dual L5420 w/ 32GB(?) (maybe 24, I forget) of RAM. Any idea on power consumption on this? I may start emailing a few places in...

    Favorite current Linux Desktop OS

    I actually replaced my Crunchbang installs and have reverted back to Mint on the workstation and laptop a couple months ago. Mint isn't perfect, but it gets the job done. Though neither MATE or Cinnamon play nice with multiple monitors. I'm sure it's possible to have the taskbar spread across...

    Raspberry Pi 2

    It appears to only do it when taken with an xenon flash vs that of an LED flash. Strange indeed. Someone covered that chip with blue-tac and confirmed it was the culprit as it stopped powering down afterwards:

    I contacted Phil and am updating it with this: Original 2.31M ad: I compressed it / reduced quality somewhat and created: Updated 1.5M ad: With his permission I've replaced the one running with the updated one.

    Ideas and suggestions for vpsBoard

    I just merged two similar topics into one: "Ideas and suggestions for vpsBoard" and "This is your community, how can we make it better for you?" Update time: The "View New Forum Content" is BACK where it was previously. I'll leave it alone. Sorry for all the back and forth. Modifying stuff to...

    Raspberry Pi 2

    So guys. Plug you new Pi in and have it running. Take a photo of it with a camera flash. It's likely going to cause your Pi to power down... Don't believe me? http://www.raspberrypi.org/forums/viewtopic.php?f=28&t=99042

    Lil' ki-ki is intrigued. I'll mess with it later. May setup a Plex server for fun, have never used Plex in the past.

    Quadcopters and other tech toys?

    I need to dust off the big quad since it has the gimbal and would be a lot better for aerial photos but had fun today messing around in the field not far from me and flying the mini around.
