I think it's worth pointing out that this probably wouldn't be done for most WMF staff either (I think there was historically a few individual projects for staff assigned to work on the Cloud VPS infrastructure itself but that's a very different thing).

@RhinosF1-2 please see https://wikitech.wikimedia.org/wiki/Help:Cloud_VPS_project#Guidelines_for_project_requests and specifically:

laptop in the cloud projects for a single individual to use as a personal development machine
Projects for use by single individuals raise a problem of fairness and inclusivity. The Cloud VPS environment is not large enough to provide dedicated resources for every Wikimedia technical contributor simply due to scale and cost of equipment. The Hardware donation program or another Wikimedia grant program may provide an alternative for some individuals.

Closing as a "laptop in the cloud" request. I would recommend filing a new project request if and when you can find a shared project with Wikimedia movement impact that meets the general guidelines for Cloud VPS.

FYI: This was an impersonation sock. Only just noticed it. Case has been forwarded to Trust and Safety (cc @jrbs)
