  • Fire TV Stick, which is a lower-cost alternative to the awesome Fire TV. (think Apple TV, but actually good)

  • Raspberry Pi which is a tiny fully-functional/fully-featured ARM computer.

  • Arduino, which is an easy-to-use electronics prototyping platform, great if you're interested in learning how to make your own electronics and whatnot. (you might also want this, this, this, this, and this. Should be less than $40 altogether, though you could also probably find like a starter kit that comes with an arduino, book, and components.)

  • Huion drawing tablet, great for if you want to do digital art. I haven't used this model specifically, but I do have the (bigger/more expensive) Huion 610 Pro, which I love.

  • Amazon Prime student was like $40 IIRC, not sure if that has changed though.

Does anyone have thoughts about the best way to generate keys in Windows IoT or Linux on a Raspberry Pi?

I ask because it's possible to build a brand new dedicated off-line touchscreen computer + HP printer to create cold storage wallets for less than the cost of a Ledger Nano S. I own a LNS and it's great. I am just using it as a reference because it's become something of a standard and many people ask about even more secure alternatives.

$30 - [computer] (https://www.amazon.com/Raspberry-Pi-Model-512MB-Computer/dp/B00LPESRUK)

$22 - touchscreen

$30 - printer
____

$82. (vs. $85 LNS)

Even better, AdaFruit has a $10 Raspberry Pi with no networking capabilities - ideal for an air-gapped system. Using your own monitor and keyboard puts the price at $40, including the printer of course.

Once you have a print out of your keys from an air-gapped system, you can transfer them to other materials for very minimal cost. Photoresist film + acid or sand can be used to etch keys and qr codes into metal tags for long term storage. It's not difficult. More like a craft project. The result is relatively fireproof, waterproof, shock proof, etc. Private keys can be covered with tamperproof seals.

This is all pretty well known but hopefully it helps a few people. If anyone has any thoughts on software, it would complete the package. I have everything ready to test but I don't want to waste time solving the wrong problems with the wrong application.

u/VanquishAudio · 3 pointsr/Bitcoin

Happy to answer that.

Bought one of these off amazon
http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B00LPESRUK

As well as a memory card to install the operating system (this one was perfect because it's a 2 in 1)
http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B00200K1TS

The OS I used is raspbian and can be dled for free.
I hooked up the pi to my tv via hdmi cable and used a wireless usb keyboard and mouse for it.
Downloaded the offline files from bitaddress.org and transfered them to the raspberry pi via usb drive.
I could then open the site on my tv screen and generate a private and public key which has never touched the Internet. Wrote them down in a notebook and that's basically the only place the private key exists. I could then send Bitcoin to the public address and the network recognizes and records this. It's pretty wild that the network knows a public key is real even though it's never been online. I guess that's the magic of cryptography. The only way I could use the funds is if I load up the private key into an online wallet but then it will no longer be completely secure.
Here's a pic I took while setting it up feeling like Neo: http://i.imgur.com/zkYuWOa.jpg

u/the_peanut_gallery · 3 pointsr/hardware

do you have a little bit of $$ to invest in learning? buy a raspberry pi--that is pretty much a whole computer on a chip (minus like the screen and keyboard and mouse) and install linux on it. try playing around with the GPIO (there's lots of tutorials online about how to do all kinds of stuff with rasberry pi)

If you want an even smaller scale, you might prefer an arduino instead.

"learn more about hardware" is very vague so hard to know just what you have in mind. what kind of applications did you have in mind?

u/Phrost5019 · 3 pointsr/HowToHack

Well if you have no experience with programming I would recommend the Gentoomen library to get some free books to help you learn. The Gentoomen library is the biggest compilation of computer books I've ever seen. Thousands of individual books totaling almost 40 gigs and totally legal (I think... its been around for six years and its still up so...). Everything you'll ever need to start programming from electrical engineering to calculus to c++ to networking is on there. You can find more books on google using filetype:pdf, or on torrent sites (if you're serious about hacking you cant be expected to buy your own ebooks.) Unless you want to end up being a script kiddie then you're gonna want to have a very solid grip on how computers work and how to program one. After that you can learn techniques on sql injection or DDOS or whatever you want to use.

I would start learning C languages first. C languages are the basis of computer languages, every programmer has to have some experience with them. C languages are what you called 'compiled', which means they get put into binary instead of being saved as a text file and decoded by the computer. Not to mention C++ is probably the most powerful language there is even though some may disagree with me. Its height was in the 80s and 90s, but its still a crucial part of understanding software and how it works. Once you've familiarized yourself with C languages you'll want to learn other crucial languages like Java, Javascript, PHP, SQL, maybe python.

Once you've learned to swing a sword you can learn some tactics. You can write 17-line keyloggers, build ghetto phiser websites, 'lulz' viruses that just bug people; built mainly to see how many computers you can infect. You can learn how to evade antiviruses, replicate and distribute your virus, and transfer it through emails or LAN. Don't try anything stupid until you've gotten familiar. The important thing here is to use your VPN to secure your anonymity and not get fined (chances are pretty slim you'll actually get imprisoned) which I'll explain later

Two things you're gonna NEED; Linux, and a VPN. Linux is what you call 'open source' meaning it has no corporate ties, and you can mold the software in any way you want. It also has no monotized executable like windows' 'exe' file. You can run any script you want as long as its marked as executable in the preferences in linux. Ideally you'd want to get familiar with Kali which was built for 'pentesting' or hacking, but more realistically, if you've never used linux before, you'll want to start with Ubuntu or Mint which are more beginner type OSs. You can read books on linux or watch videos. The important thing here is to not get discouraged by its foreign nature. When I started using linux I had no idea what was even going on, but now I'm a liscenced terminal ninja, I have to liscence my keyboard as a legal weapon. You don't need a bulky computer to learn linux either. You can just buy a $25 raspberry pi off of amazon. They're meant to familiarize people with programming with minimal costs. There are serveral models ranging from $15 to $35, I'll leave the choice up to you. You can also just install linux on a windows/mac machine for free. Some linux operating systems are corporate like redhat or suse, but you don't need to worry about those. For all intents and purposes in your case, linux is entirely free unless you want to donate. Windows 8 does this thing called 'secure boot' to try to disable deadly viruses that deploy before the operating system. So you have to do a bunch of things to run the live usb (a live usb is basically an install CD on a usb drive) before the operating system boots.

Now for a VPN. When you browse the web your computer sends requests to your router, the router then relays the signal to the hardline to your ISP, which requests data from the server and runs the process back until your webpage shows up on your screen. The problem with this lies within its transparency. You can get what's called a VPN or "Virtual Private Network." What happens when you're connected to a VPN is your computer sends an encrypted information through your ISP to the VPN server wherever that is. The servers then un-encrypt the information and get the data from the actual servers such as reddit.com. Once the VPN obtains all the necessary information for the webpage or download it encrypts the information and sends it back to your computer where its un-encrypted locally. This way anyone including government or your ISP has no idea what to make of the encrypted mess that they log on their comptuers. Now, you can get free VPNs, but they're not a good idea. They may log their traffic which counteracts the point, and they're known for infecting computers (not good). I use private internet access. You can get access to their network for 3.99 to 6.99 a month depending on if you pay month to month or yearly. The important thing with them is a; they're the cheapest (good) VPN and b; they don't log their traffic. They're also fast. Most VPNs will slow you down, but pia is very fast, I cant seem to notice a difference in internet speed between unencrypted connection and an opneVPN connection on my desktop.

Really you shouldn't need to spend much money much less $600. If all you buy is a raspberry pi and a few months of VPN services you'll only get run up about $40. If you have a computer you're pretty much good. You could learn to hack on a school supplied laptop. You don't need a water cooled, overclocked, 12 core, 3 GPU, lit up like a christmas tree PC in order to learn to program. Any computer made in this decade will be more than fast enough to process the kind of things you'll be executing, hell, you could run this stuff on your phone.

When you've learned to program, I would consider investing in a good computer. But if you have no experience with computers at all then you should really try to get around the stuff first and see if you even like it. Hacking isn't exactly typing green text at 300 wpm as I'm sure you know. It can get pretty boring in my experience albeit with rewarding outcomes at times. Oh, and don't go dicking around until you at least know how to not get caught. Once you've got a solid grip on this stuff there are various ways to reap the fruits of your labor. You can get email addresses and sell them in bulk (im talking millions at a time), harvest bank accounts and sell them on the dark web, make adware and get paid to put ads in your virus, there are even hire-a-hacker services on the deep web. The one thing you do NOT want to do is break into bank accounts unless you REALLY know how to a; hack and b; launder money and c; not get fucking caught. This is some pretty shady shit and this is one of the few things that can get you locked up.

tl;dr Download this, read it, get Linux,, and make sure you have a computer to run it on, secure your anonymity with a VPN, read the books and learn to program, after that you can experiment with small scale, harmless operations and work your way up to some pretty shady shit. I hope that was helpful it took me forever to type.

u/Akyltour · 3 pointsr/gaming

Hi there, sorry for the late answer I was out for the week-end!

It will depends highly on what you expect him to do with it, and also your budget. But for the more standard it will be at least:

  • The Pi

  • A power cable: the "Alim" was a bad use of a french word for power cable

  • A case or another (You can also build one with Legos! :D )

  • a microSD card for the OS (no preference I took the first link I saw)

    Then there can be:

  • A usb wifi adapter if the can't plug an ethernet cable

  • An hdmi cable if you think he will use it on his TV or standard PC monitor.

  • About the controller, if you think he will build a media center linked to his TV with the HDMI cable, some TVs allow the use of "CEC" controller, and so his TV command will be automatically compatible with the Pi. Else, he can use a classic keyboard and mouse set, or some mobile solution or even a snes usb controller if he wants to build a retrogaming console

  • To finish if you have a large budget for your friend there is a lot of accessories you can find in the related articles of the Pi on Amazon, like a webcam, a motion sensor module

  • You can also buy a complete bundle or a starter kit like this if you think he will have fun with all the electronic parts :)

    And I confirm, it can be a pretty cool gift for a friend to build :)

I'm a LiveATC streamer (KDAL). Get a Raspberry Pi. That's what most streamers are using these days. It's small and uses very little power. Configured properly, it's pretty much bulletproof. Plus, if it were to get zapped, you're only out $40. Feel free to PM me any questions...

What is the difference between the B+ and 2? Which would be better for beginners/give the best performance?

All I could find on Amazon is the Raspberry Pi 2 Model B and the Raspberry Pi B+. Are these the two you are talking about? In the first link what is the difference between the 2 options? Does the $54 option just include a MicroSD card? Will he need one to do anything or does the base model start with some memory?

Also what accessories would you recommenced I buy for someone who is just starting out and doesn't know what they want to do with it yet?

Is there any sort of buyers guide online?

Eu am Raspberry Pi B+ si chromecast. Folosesc destul de mult raspberry-ul. Este cam incet dar vad filme din retea (NAS) cu xbmc - am si xbmctorrent (un plugin) si pot sa vad fara sa downloadez ceva in prealabil. Sunt multumit.

Despre chromecast nu prea pot sa comentez pentru ca nu l-am folosit la multe. Am facut cast de pe youtube, mirror la android sau mirror la chrome tab (sa ma uit cu altcineva pe reddit :) ). Intr-o zi am stat si am incercat sa pun filme de pe nas (din retea) dar trebuiau sa fie encodate mp4 (sau asemanator).

Later edit: Vezi ca acum a facut si amazon un dongle care mi se pare interesant.

All together that comes to $75 and will play games from the Atari, NES, SNES, Master System, Genesis, Gameboy etc. If you buy that SD card then I have an 8Gb image file already put together for it with over 4000 games that I could put up for you to download, you then just write it to the SD card, pop it in the Pi and plug it in, it will auto boot to a nice menu controlled by the control pad, select your game and play, then just press "Start + Select" to go back to the menu to select another game/system. It's very easy to use as all the hard work of aquiring the games and artwork has already been done.

You can get the more powerful Pi 2 or 3 and a bigger MicroSD to have more roms but that pushes the price up and will need more work to setup.

I have aspergers and my wife is type one so I understand some of the difficulties your son faces, I hope you can use this to help make him happy. My sister has an autistic son also and I put together one of these and he loves it, she got him to write a one sentence review and score out of 10 for each game. It became something they could do together and talk about, and also helped to convince him to do things liek help with cleaning his room etc so that he could do "one more review before bed" as she thinks it important to always push him that little bit to give him the best chances later on in life.

Anyway, here is a video showing the system in use so you can see what you think:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PDWebx6D2Zc

Also with the addition of another SD card, usb keyboard and mouse and it also works as a computer with web browsing and programming tools for kids (Scratch).

So your current set up, does it only do 1 at a time or do you have multiple units? Because you could get these devices, and hook them up to some Raspberry pi's http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00LPESRUK?keywords=raspberry%20pi&qid=1451514724&ref_=sr_1_5&s=pc&sr=1-5 and just have it dump into a shared server location with a time stamp.

> How do they use less space?

PoS minting can (at least for most coins) be done on a RaspberryPi which is tiny¹ compared to an ASIC miner.
In addition to not using much physical space a RaspberryPi doesn't consume much energy at all (typical less than 3.5 W).
And Peercoin doesn't need much space on a disk to write the block chain. But that has not much to do with Peercoin being a PoS coin, but with Peercoin's protocol². That makes it ideal for being stored on a RaspberryPi - you don't even need a big SD card for that.
In difference to several thousand USD you might pay for top-notch ASIC miners, you get a RaspberryPi for less than $40. You might be able to use an old mobile phone charger as power supply, if it has enough power (> 700 mA). And you need an SD card of 4 (better 8 GB) size; that's it!
Even if you don't have an SD card and a suitable power supply, you get complete kits for under $60.

¹ 85.60 mm × 56.5 mm (3.370 in × 2.224 in) – not including protruding connectors

² Peercoin has a fixed tx fee of 0.01 PPC/kB transaction size that disincentivizes frequent transactions. In roughly 2.5 years the whole block chain is still smaller than 400 MB (compared to e.g. Litecoin's 4 GB, Dogecoins 9 GB or Bitcoin's 33 GB!)

So do I just get a "board"? I don't need to get any sort of accessory or anything to use it? Like [this] (http://www.amazon.com/Raspberry-Pi-Model-512MB-Computer/dp/B00LPESRUK) would be okay?

u/ExtremePopTart · 1 pointr/randomactsofamazon

Mine is a small computer thing that's 40 USD and about the size of a credit card. It's called a Raspberry Pi and you can code it/program it to do tons of stuff. People have made cameras to be put on weather balloons and sent into the sky, home automation things, robots, all sorts of things. I plan to use mine (when/if I get one) to make a video game console emulator.

u/amarsaudon · 1 pointr/Bellingham

My setup consists of 5 different cameras.
1x Raspberry Pi B+s running MotionPie with 2x 1080p webcams, 1x Foscam FI8910E POE Camera, 1x Zyxel 720p Camera, and 1x Trendnet IP Camera . All cameras dump footage into iSpy, a windows based free surveillance software. It runs on my server (Windows Server 2008r2 running inside ESXi on a Dell Poweredge R210), saving videos into my Google Drive (uploading them very quickly to "the cloud" for safe keeping, and allowing me to view them remotely or share the storage with neighbors interested in viewing footage). After ~ 2 weeks videos are archived from my google drive onto my 3U SGI Rackable SE3016 (16x2TB Hard drives in RAID6 attached to an LSI 8888ELP passed through to my 2008r2 VM via VT-d) . Everything is powered by a UPS to keep it rolling in the event of a power outage which is why I needed cameras with built in POE or that could use a ghetto POE Splitter with, and my "router" (Zentyal VM) is configured with WAN failover to FreedomPop 4G in case I lose my Comcast.
TLDR: I wouldn't bother trying to mirror my setup, epic amounts of nerdery has gone into it. Instead, I would probably get a Preconfigured Surveillance DVR kit . They offer some rad features without needing the amount of time I put into my setup.

Just Breathe!

This will help me relax because I'll be happy kidding it and doing things like running a server or using emulators with it!

It's on my public wish list, should be at the top! :)

You could also purchase a Raspberry Pi B+ and learn C development on it. It's a full fledged Linux computer for $40.

You also don't need Linux to learn C. You can get a compiler here.

Or if you're on OSX, just download the developer command line tools from Apple's developer site.

Here's a YouTube video of doing your first C program on a RPi

If you want to make a dogeatm, I am down to help out where possible. here is my idea so far:
one of these, for printing the temporary wallet adresses one of these for transferring moneys
in a fancy waterproofing case with some sort of input system for entering adresses. I want to build an doge ATM. but am wondering how to convert dollar bills back into doge, if anyone has any input please do tell, I would like to place a few of these around to increase visibility.

You have done a lot to support the doge community, WOW, recruiting 14 shibes is an impressive feat, and that is what we need.

Probably. I'm guessing that case isn't worth $40 (considering the B+ is only $40 by itself).

Hey there! Just noticed you just joined the subreddit. Welcome, by the way. My name is Andrew, and I'm about to finish high school while being dual enrolled in a vocational school for Computer Networking. Afterward, I plan on getting my BS in Computer Science at a college near me. This is an item I've been wanting for a long time on my wish list, because I have a Raspberry Pi, but no case for it and that's not too safe for the little board. I'll be using it at school a lot to save work on, and I just can't afford a lot of these things. Here's a link to the case.

One thing I think you should get is a Raspberry Pi yourself. You can build retro gaming systems. If you love gaming, then you'd love to play the older games by simply turning a Raspberry Pi into a small retro gaming system. There are tons of free ROMs to download and play online, you just need to figure out how to set it up and it's a wonderful project to start. Here's a link to the Raspberry Pi, Model B+ (512MB).

Thank you very much for hosting this contest. It is very much appreciated!
