I have my RaspberryPi always on, connected to the electricity.

Yeah
But one of those claws from those shit type prank stores, and make it hold a flathead from as far away as your cheeto-ass bitch face is, then connect the power pins with the tip of the screwdriver

Boom remote powering

>Is there a way to shutdown and turn it on remotely
No. Why?

>>45927148
Wat.
>>45927181
Thank you. Would be a decent thing to have so I would reduce power consumption.
Thanks

>>45927027
Cover the Pi in coconut oil
Cram it up your ass
Install gentoo on it using your rectum

you're welcome OP

>>45927232
>so I would reduce power consumption
That's like one of the biggest points of the Pi, that it barely consumes any power.

>>45927027
>Is there a way to shutdown and turn it on remotely
Yeah. Throw something heavy at it.

An A+ model uses about 800 times less electricity compared to a average vacuum cleaner.

a point has been reached where it doesn't even matter.

>>45928905
Are you using your vacuum cleaner 24/24 7/7?
How you can you be this retarded?

>>45929099
>24/24 7/7
weird way to say it but your point does stand

>>45929356
What's the usual way?
24/7 ? I'm not even sure.

>>45929523
correct.

Why has nobody mentioned that you can just get one of those WiFi power switches
Seriously, Belkin WeMo switch or whatever brand of your choosing, plug the pi into it, and deny power at will.
Most switches support IFTTT, too, so you could text your pi on and off, or email it, or whatever

>>45927027
You could just shut it down with ssh, but you'll have to turn it on manually.

>>45929099
Jesus, are you this poor?

A machine like that probably won't even cost a dollar a month.

That power device could use about half as much power as the pi, so unless you had your pi on less than half the time, it'd cost more

What I know you can shut it down via SSH and turn it on by Wake on Lan

Can you repeat that?

Not only Wake on Lan exists, there's WoWLAN, wake on wlan

Why are you trying to power manage the Pi? The draw is so minimal. It's just under 2 watts.

OP, put your costs on paper and see for yourself

rPi is around ~2W

so, if it's on for 24 hours it would waste 48W.

In 10 days it would be 480W

In 20 days it would be ~1000W = 1kWh = like $10 cents

>>45932852
I meant to say $0.1 = 10 cents

Power cost might vary in your country but it's around that

>>45932852
>~1000W = 1kWh
I want to beat the shit out of you so hard right now

gtfo nigger, 2W at constant rate for ~20 days is 1 kWh, that's the point
