on https://www.crowdsupply.com/raptor-computing-systems/talos-secure-workstation/updates/the-state-of-owner-controlled-computing-as-talos-winds-down

I read

: Raptor Engineering is grateful to have had the opportunity to run

:
: We will not be continuing development of the Talos™ systems, however
: we are willing to license parts of the Talos™ technology, such as
: FlexVer™, to other manufacturers.

so it looks as it that legitimately owner-controlled computer
project
based on the POWER processor has died.

Anyone know better? Is is still continuing in some form?
