Just bought a bananapi what should i do with it.

Good luck, I have a Raspberry Pi 3 and it blows this out of the water and still it sucks at everything.
Emulator? Too slow. Shitty desktop? Too shitty. Android/Android TV? Too slow, too shitty and videos have a blue hue in Android TV. All the apps have perfectly fine colors but when it starts to play TWC or NHK app its blue only in the streaming video. Better off buying a cheap x86 PC.

can it run ubuntu?

>>55861428
Not OP but I'm sure it will run Ubuntu Mate. But it runs like shit on Rspberry Pi 3 and that destroys the Banana Pi.

Can anyone recommend some cool projects to use on a Pi for educational purposes

Someone really needs to make a copypasta, this shit's getting fucking annoying.
>HUUR, I'VE BOUGHT SOMETHING WITH LITERALLY ENDLESS USES THAT TENS OF THOUSANDS OF PEOPLE HAVE USED IN JUST AS MANY UNIQUE PROJECTS, BUT I'M TOO FUCKING UNINSPIRED TO EVEN COPY THEM OR JUST GO ON FUCKING HACKADAY AND LOOK THROUGH THE PROJECTS TAGGED WITH PI, BUT YOU GUYS TELL ME WHAT TO DO NUUR
HERE YOU GO YOU LAZY FUCK

Just return it or sell it before wasting too much time on it. Allwinner is a really shitty company that doesn't respect the GPL and you most definitely won't get the latest Linux kernel.

Source: I made the mistake of buying the Pine 64 w/ 2GB RAM on Kickstarter. Got fed up with terrible support, retarded Linux builds, and the OS shitting itself way too often, then sold it online.

Man in middle attack via arp spoofing. Hide it in a library and collect data

No it doesn't, it runs pretty good actually.

Torrents, VPN, mail server, media streaming, bragging on chinkchan etc.

I just got myself a nifty odroid c2 which I'm gonna stack full of server features.
It already contains an MPD server and Deluge Torrent server.
Thinking of adding SAMBA, pi-hole + DNS encryption, VPN, network sniffer, and you guys just taught me about taskd. It should be able to handle this easily, right? Maybe too much network related stuff on it though.

Not doing mail because it's insecure, TOR is slow, I don't use it enough for H@H, and I wouldn't have a clue for a web service to host.

Anything else I forgot?
