The Adobe suite is just the start - they've made "open-source, clean-room reimplementation" versions of many other apps: https://github.com/storytold

No wonder people don't believe it exists - it's crazy expensive (super cool, and crazy expensive).

I have one for work; I was excited to receive it, I’ve never been more disappointed with a laptop bearing the ThinkPad brand. Lots of intermittent issues with graphics, BT audio, and performance.

The follow-up article is lovely too: https://macleans.ca/news/canada/passing-the-headlamp-the-tor...
And this one later in 2015 that speaks to his use of the fundraiser money: https://www.thestar.com/news/insight/york-u-s-mystery-tunnel...

I'm more interested in the Comet - https://mecha.so/comet - as a thing to support in pre-order. They will be launching their Kickstarter soon, and the founder is very active and transparent on their Discord.

Is there a repository for that? I’d like to dissuade certain species from my porch but not others…

According to their Github page, they _are_ linuxcontainers (in a way), and Incus is Apache licensed:
Incus, which is named after the Cumulonimbus incus or anvil cloud started as a community fork of Canonical's LXD following Canonical's takeover of the LXD project from the Linux Containers community.
The project was then adopted by the Linux Containers community, taking back the spot left empty by LXD's departure.
Incus is a true open source community project, free of any CLA and remains released under the Apache 2.0 license. It's maintained by the same team of developers that first created LXD.
LXD users wishing to migrate to Incus can easily do so through a migration tool called lxd-to-incus.

Their scenario is that the ships are mostly going to be "fuel mules" to ferry propellant to the ship that is destined to go somewhere (i.e. Mars) - so if you want an armada to travel to another planet, you need a much larger fleet of supply vehicles to prepare your armada. Hence the need to mass produce them.

Yeah, IBM employee here, not speaking on behalf of the company, own opinions etc. The odds this is approved for employee use are essentially zero.

I didn't see anything about load shifting in the article - are there any sites that help calculate the ROI on a battery system that is used to power the house during the day and recharges overnight?
For example, here in Ontario Canada, we have the option of an "Ultra Low Overnight" rate where the energy price is 2.8c/kWh between 11pm and 7am, while the tiered rates start at 9.3c/kWh; given the 6.5c/kWh delta, how many days' worth of use would be needed in order to pay off a given battery system? How would adding a solar system affect that calculation?
