So working off these instructions I have a few questions
https://forum.getmonero.org/5/support/360/bitmonerod-node-on-rpi2-working
First do you have to have a 256GB USB drive? (I have a 100gb usb drive at my disposal now) Will you need that much space on a drive or will an 32GB SD card be enough? If not enough space should I just load the OS on the USB drive instead of an SD card. The SD card i have is a class 10 but limited in size.
Second Can raspbian be used instead of ubuntu?
I will let you know that I'm so new to Linux that you could call me a retard. Seriously I'm that stupid with it. Only saving grace is I still remember some of my old Dos command line stuff but I realize there are differences when using Linux command line and I'm slowly learning.
The goal is to set up the Rasp Pi 2 as a 24/7 node. Thanks for any and all help.

You can hold down shift + right click folder. You get "open command prompt here."
Good tip. The other important variable is the path, which (in Win 7) you'll find in Advanced system settings>Environment Variables, under
Control Panel\System and Security\System
(Right click 'Computer' and select property gets you there).
The path is just a semicolon-separated list of folder locations the system will search for command line programs like simplewallet (so you don't have to change folder to run it).

so if your on windows, you need to goto the command line. Hit the start button and type cmd into the search thing. a little black icon will appear. click on that. A big black box will pop up.
type
cd /users/yourwindowsusername/desktop/folderwithmonerobinary
(if you put your monero binaries in folderwithmonerobinary on your desktop)
once there, type
simplewallet --trusted-daemon
boom.

I have downloaded the just released windows 0.9 beta. When I try to start mining in simplewallet I get the following;
Error: This command assume a trusted daemon. Enable with --trusted-daemon
I tried using the command --trusted-daemon in both the daemon and simple wallet but get the message "unknown command". I also tried --trusted-daemon in combination with start_mining in simple wallet which also doesn't work.

Add --trusted-daemon to the simplewallet command line, not in the console. That is, at the same place you put --wallet-file, or --daemon-host, etc.
I don't know where this place is, nor how to get there or what to do when I am there

Add " --trusted-daemon" (without the quotes, but with the space) just after the string "simplewallet" in your command, such that --trusted-daemon does not directly touch any other non-whitespace character. If you're using some script someone else wrote, edit it to change that (or post it if you don't know how to edit one, and I'll make the change and post it).

Tails and Monero are still incompatible due to Tails only supporting 32-bit, true?
There has been some confusion about this for some time:
Does Tails work with 64-bit processors?
Yes. Tails automatically detects the type of processor of the computer and loads a 32-bit or a 64-bit kernel accordingly
Yes. Tails automatically detects the type of processor of the computer and loads a 32-bit or a 64-bit kernel accordingly
I don't know whether Tails and Monero are compatible but if not 64 bit support doesn't seem to be the reason. (The new Monero can be built for 32 bit also.)
Well, Tails is nothing more than a routingtable with native Tor support -> aka Transparent Proxy Setup.
I am using Monero through Tor, take a look at my Tutorial for rerouting all TCP Traffic through TOR

Crosspost from [XMR] speculation, thanks to kazuki49
Is that different than the 0.9 windows beta that has been out for a while?
it is still beta but should have bugfixes MoneroMooo constantly pushes on github, fluffy compiled it yesterday: https://github.com/monero-project/bitmonero/issues/474#issuecomment-152823852

theres a new beta version: https://downloads.getmonero.org/monero.win.x64.v0-9-beta.zip so the courageous folks who use crypto on windows can get on the latest build.

Sometimes I get the feeling that the development of Monero should be limited to GNU/Linux (or at least to Unix like OS) until most the development goals are reached. Those wishing to run Monero on Windows can be provided with a pre-configured Virtual Box GNU/Linux VM and instructions on installing Virtualbox.
Does anyone seriously believe that one can have financial privacy running Monero on Windows 10?
Of course not. And any Windows that is not end-of-life is affected by the new policies and will likely have malicious updates pushed to them by Microsoft.
But NOT supporting Windows is a PR disaster, as people will attack it.
Windows installation = teachable moment
Make lusers click-through an "I understand Win10 is logging my every keystroke, and agree using *nix or *BSD would be a much smarter choice" prompt.

Just got this. Nice one, eh? This is on testnet, btw.
Does anyone know what might have caused it? (new self-compiled daemon, but old blockchain data. removed lmdb dir as instructed)
Does it otherwise work ? If you have removed the blockchain, the newly created blockchain will only have the genesis block to start with, so any (valid) chain will have only the genesis block in common with it.

Major corporations use Windows for billions/trillions of dollars worth of financial transactions all the time, and they care about privacy. Apart from all the innovative accounting/tax dodging, they don't want their rivals knowing their dealings. Just my .02 XMR.
Q
Well, Windows was never designed to be private or secure. I hope you didn´t miss the "aftersnoden" era, where so called exploits are used by governments and private businessnes to spy on users that use Wndows.
Just because FIAT transactions are processed on a certain OS in 90% majority of cases, does not imply that that specific OS is secure
That´s why i use Linux for crypto and my personal belongs

What's happening to Monero? The price is dropping... I this just a move to make profit elsewhere?
Where is monero headed in 2016? I'm not bashing monero, just worried about my investment.

Same USD price.
I'll probably never advocate anyone buy XMR.
They can if they want but I will only ever try to see how the technology can fit into a niche of society and show them how it works (if I ever get to a point where I feel I'm confident enough to talk about XMR to others) outside of this forum.
