Very interesting that this is on the front page. I’m totally out of the loop here and the title and even descriptions seem like some arcane spellbook in a mystical language.
There must be some niche of Hacker News I’ve fallen totally out of touch with.

I think the title is just the name of the newest release of 9front (an active fork of plan9), similar to how Bookworm is the name for Debian release 12.

What is it? Can someone provide any context about that?
Even the main page of the 9front website just provide an image but no context...

A continuation of Plan9, Bell's experimental unix-successor that never really took off.

Not the same as Nix, the declarative package manager and linux distro, but an amusing coincidence.
