      I have a spare computer that is not currently being used. I would like to put it to use but i’m not sure what to do with it. I am having the same issue with my Raspberry Pi too, it’s just sitting there doing nothing.
      Does anyone have any suggestions on what I can use either of them for?

                  @GoaNy That seems like a huge waste.
                  @1UP I was thinking about that but that seems to waste the processing power of the i7 and the 12GB or ram.

                  It’s basically a full PC without a heat sink at the moment. It was water cooled but the pump seemed pretty fucked.

                      @Scuzz Well i can’t read minds, how was I supposed to know what the hardware was that was in it?
                      Host a minecraft server or something and rent it out.
