Is there any way to set one of these up for kids? I'd like to have the standard plethora of game emulators, some simple gamedev tools like maybe pygame, other misc programming stuff they might need for school, and minecraft (is it moddable on pi?).
The bit I'm stuck on is how do you have a machine that can download and install minecraft mods without allowing them onto the wild web at large? A hosts.allow kind of thing? My nightmare is the parents catching them on donkeyporn.com using a device I gave them.

Since it's linux I assume you could just make user accounts and control their access through whatever. Never done it before on linux
Haha 6 and 12 I think. I'm going to buy one and play around with it. Apparently it is opengl es2 which I've been battling with alot lately.

If that 12 year old hasn't already looked at porn on the internet, I would be shocked.

And let's face it if a 6 year old is looking up porn there is something wrong there fundamentally

You can use iptables and deny all traffic on ports 80 and 443 and then white list the IPs you know are safe. It's kind of a pain to maintain as the minecraft IPs will probably change relatively often and you'll have to add them to the white list, but it would pretty much eliminate the donkey porn threat.

Cool thanks I'll check that out.
I got it today and got raspbian going. Had some goblinry with the locale but eventually got retropie installed. Found a 40 gig rom pack, still need a few more hours to download that. Trying to get synergy going so I can use my main keyboard and mouse on it.
The minecraft machine idea seems a bit far fetched though. It runs smooth but I don't think it is moddable. I think I might give it to the older nephew to help him learn programming.

Brother-in-law texted me today saying a "friend" wanted to sell him a Kodi box for $300 that he could use to watch all the movies that are in theaters, tv shows, and sports. I was just like, "wut?" Not sure if was going to be a NUC or what "box" he was using, but even then. $120 or less for that, Kodi is free, Exodus is free. What is a 60% margin between friends though, right?
