PoE devices needs an isolation transformer in order to be compliant, and it takes quite some real estate. However, so does 110V/220V, but i guess we're so used to "hiding" it in a wall-wart.
Hm, I've some problems with nix and desktop apps that needs opengl or similar machine-specific libraries. There are some hacks, and I also think nix comes very close to a good solution, but it's not 100% yet.
That’s mostly due to video drivers not being under nix’s control deliberately (if packages would depend on them as well, instead of a stub, there would be exponentially more build for each driver). On nixos this is solved by a specifically-placed stub, while it will be distro specific elsewhere, so it may not work for a random distro (that’s where “hacks” come into the picture, choosing a non-nixos distro specific lib as the stub and it will work just fine)
My (Swedish) BankID definitely doesn't run from the sim card. :S I've had 4 phones in Sweden and I had to enroll it as a new device each time in Nordea.
For radon, we installed a suction fan inside our house that sucks air from under the house. That lowers the pressure under the house, and radon doesn't seep in. It made the measurements go from ~120bq to 20bq.
