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.
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.
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.
