Not really a "secure" workstation if you can't have a secure bootchain. An open, secure platform would allow you to fuse your own root key.

Looks more like an issue with the VM rather than xhyve. Serial console does not seem to get respawned.

Not sure how useful OS X containers would be. Are you deploying on OS X?

If your objective is to sell a stolen iPhone then you still have to know the owners Apple ID and password due to activation lock. Being able to bypass Touch ID isn't going to help you.

The last SoC where this has been the case is the A5 (using the the ARM Cortex-A9 MP). The Apple A6 and A7 don't use ARM cores and neither does Qualcomm in their Snapdragon SoCs.

"so what's left to steal?"

The CPU? ARMv8 isn't a thing, it's an instruction set specification, just like x86, implemented by various micro-architectures. Samsung doesn't do that (yet).

The GPU is a design from Imagination Technologies, the CPU is an Apple design. What part of the SoC is "mostly designed by ARM"?

"Learn the engineering skills needed to build a web startup from the ground up." FTFY

Strange, seems to work fine on iOS.

> I have no idea how anyone who isn’t working in a high tech role that pays an above average salary can live here.

I wondered that too. Anyone care to share how to get by with a non-tech salary in the bay area?

Not necessarily, you could have separate iCloud accounts for each family member and one shared iTunes/App Store account. You can use a different account for iTunes and the App Store, so you don't have to change accounts all the time. At least that's what we do.

Apple didn't discontinue mac.com and me.com domains for existing accounts.

> I assume this mojang app uses markers too?

No! That's what makes it so awesome. It analyses the scenery and infers your position as you walk around.
