Why not? admittedly I don't feel the need for one but I absolutely delight in people following their passion with such whimsy. It's a boring person that never does anything crazy just because. This is a really tough crowd lol.
Got a tip for us?

I remember the times when Apple actually cared about Apple TV/tvOS

AppleTV app and AppleTV hardware are as insanely different as iPhone Phone app and iPhone. One does a very narrow little group of things. The other runs a wide variety of apps with all kinds of utility and entertainment.
Had been much more interesting if he modded iPad pro to run macOs.
Very interesting and unique modification. Everybody here is asking why. Maybe he did that just for fun?
That’s literally the point. I’m confused as to why any of you are confused why it was done lmao.
It’s no different than the other Frankenstein android or windows mods ppl do.
Went through the whole article wondering where he got that inverted Magic Keyboard - it is covered at the very end. He bought both and did a key swap.
Yup me too. At the very least he proved to me what I was thinking about the new MK on release. The silver/white variant would have look WAY better with black keys.
Best part of this mod are the black keys on the silver keyboard!! 🤩🤩🤩
Fair enough. People are free to waste their time and money any way they want within the law. It think what most people here, me included, are wondering is what does this do that an iPad isn’t already capable of without the mod. I might be able to get the why of it all if I could understand that but of missing info.
Are there any apps that the Apple TV has that the iPad doesn’t have? I’ve never had an issue finding a streaming app for my iPad. Just wondering what the iPad is missing that the Apple TV has.

He may want to stay away from M4 iPad if he does not want to be crunched.
I heard that apparently this guy also keeps his perishable food cold by sticking copper pipes and plastic tubing filled with liquid nitrogen into the food rather than simply using a refrigerator.
