I have it running 24/7 to use as a NAS server

Just yesterday did the PiFm thing on a PiZero running Rasbian Lite (no GUI).
Transmitted Orsen Wells' The War of the World to my Baofeng UV-5R via FM.
Was fun.

setup a DNS with a hostfile to provide adblocking across your entire home network

How did you get RPi0 ?
Things got sold out in 2 minutes, both at release and restock.

Isn't it slow as shit? Or do you use it for just small files? Because afaik you're limited to usb 2.0 drives or a large SD card.

Havn't really used it for much. I've been using it for tiny networking projects like nas, gonna make a little minecraft server, and some other stuff.

I've been using terminal to access it from across the room. Thinking about downloading an x11 client so I can remote the GUI.

I deploy small web applications for my family on raspberries.
It's a neat little server. I even purchased a case and a heatsink for the CPU and RAM.

>heatsink on Raspberry Pi
Why do people do this?

>>52367665
Not him but got one in UK on launch day from PiMoroni.

On my case, the heatsink is integrated with the case itself. You put a little thermal pad on the chip and screw the board into the case. Apparently it adds stability if you overclock it.

>>52368943
It's just a little plastic chip the size of its processor. Simple and cheap, really.

>>52368943
I have it on my Orange Pi because it reduces the temperature under load for almost 10 degrees

It is quite slow especially because I have to use the shitty wifi dongle

I've got 2 32gb flash drives just for little transfers between devices and some small backups

You also need a powered USB hub if you want to use any drives so that sucks. This is my first home server so I was just messing around with it so see how it works... I would not recommend it for large file transfers

RP2 here and it's very very good. A PC would be faster I suppose, but for the price it works amazingly well. I make them for all my friends and family.
