Any given part of the 9front website is a fractal piece of a much larger whole, resembling the larger whole in one key respect: when any given person looks at it they're likely to say "what the fuck is this shit?"
- lproven 3y ago[Author/submitter here] That is something I try to address in the article, FWIW.
- getwiththeprog 3y agoThanks for the brief history of Plan9. However, your agrument for their propoganda is "they have been spurned so they use abstract shit". This really misses the point that Plan9 is actual real art. It is beyond most peoples comprehension. What the art is doing is the same as what the OS is doing. Is is reflecting itself across multiple levels to self propogate and be unpacked by the unconscious. It is not "we have been spurned" it is "we spurn you as inferiour beings, unable to comprehend our multi-level, dangerous reality".
