Raspberry Pi

I have a Raspberry Pi B+, I bought it on Amazon because I accumulated bonus gift cards.
It's been gathering dust for three months now. What can it be adapted to? The Internet is full of options, BUT:
1) I have neither a TV nor a monitor (only a laptop), as a result I cannot use the graphical shell for the raspberry.
2) Although I have a fairly fast (50Mbps), but very gray Internet. Everything is under NAT, no DDNS will save, so using the device as a server is not an option.
3) Only the board, charger and flash drive are included. No extras. devices.
That is, the maximum - you can connect it to the router and manage it via SSH.
What do you suggest? It's a pity for a good piece of iron, which I can't find a use for.

At the expense of the graphical shell, you can output video via RDP
But in general, I haven’t seen anything on the Internet worth raspberry

If you immortalize the photo, you can make timelapses for the camera. You can sit on the sled and move the sled and trigger the camera after a configurable amount of time.
It will be a cool device.

Robot bartender . It will come in very handy for the New Year.
Can be done without a tablet, control only buttons.

Make a controlled outlet with a temperature sensor, attach it to the heater and set the temperature profile, winter is coming :))

Wrong approach. We buy something "anyhow," then we figure out how to use it.
Just a waste of money.
But if there is a task in which the raspberry pi will be needed (the price of this scarf allows you to "hammer nails with a microscope", using it instead of conventional microcontrollers in tasks that do not require a large amount of peripherals), then you can buy a "raspberry".

Can be connected to a TV and used as a media center or game console.

Tell me, who is commenting, is it possible to buy a small monitor for the board, a keyboard and a mouse and use it just for the Internet, watching videos, writing messages, being on social networks, etc., like a regular computer, tablet or smartphone?
