An iPad as is has never really appealed, but if I could run macOS in a VM - or something to that effect - I would be very tempted. Sadly it doesn’t seem that Apple are really interested in offering that. I have used various Surface devices

You can use Nix to build derivations on at least some of the BSDs - so I guess if you wanted to build some BSD based appliance with Nix it is possible, but would take some doing…

If you produce the hardware you necessarily have access to the signing key to say update the microcode or the firmware. Intel is in the TCB for SGX, but your cloud operator wouldn’t be. In this case Apple is both the hardware manufacturer a

You can sideload apps with a free account, but only 3 signed at once and for a max of 7 days. There are also some entitlements you can’t use.

It may be technologically secure, but it is still very volatile compared to more traditional options. That doesn’t seem to be a good thing.

I had experienced this one and felt like I was going mad, and then I guess the humidity changed and I gave up/stopped thinking about it. It wasn't until a couple years later I saw a post here about the gas cylinders causing monito

I'd say that CCTV is quite different to wiretapping. You (generally) wouldn't have the expectation of privacy in a public place, most people would expect that phone calls, messages, etc do remain private. Now, GCHQ is no better th

Is there a good file system for this? For macOS I’d want APFS, for Linux ext4, Windows NTFS (maybe ReFS?). You can typically get read only access between them, and I know Linux can do RW with NTFS - but I’m not aware of a good option.

Depending on your sensitivity to power/noise a 40Gb switch can be had somewhat inexpensively too - something like the Brocade ICX6610 costs <200$ on eBay.
