Note that the author also created the web2py web framework. I attended a presentation he gave on web2py at a PyCon in Chicago back in 2008-ish. He's an academic and has been making open source software for a long time.

I watched the video and really liked what I saw.

The opening paragraph:

"Your computer. In your pocket. Fast, uncluttered, secure, shell first, keyboard driven, encrypted filesystem, sane custom tools."

I have no idea what that means, or what this project is, from that description alone.

Basically yet another live pendrive linux image with persistence?

Nice, but it doesn't really explain what's so unique about it.

If you like the idea of "self-contained OS on a USB drive with encrypted persistence", but don't want to entrust it to vibed-together projects that have been around for ~a month, there are other options, like Tails (which supports encrypted persistence) [1] or duct tape your own version together with any normal distribution (Debian, Fedora, Arch, etc) and LUKS.

typical clueless claude user thinking they invented something we already had decades ago

i get this might be cool and might be a cool usecase but not a fan of the slop...
