What if that sounds really interesting, despite actually having nothing to do with the boring company and their tunnels, but one doesn't spend their days tinkering with computer functionality?

Now I'm seeing this is on s/linux. Probably not for the non-tinker demographics.

If it turns out it is trying to escape into the more general public, is there a less technical explanation for what it does, why one would use it, and how they would accomplish that?
