Main article: Plan 9

9front is a fork of Plan 9 from Bell Labs by the People's Front of Cat -V. It was started in 2011 to continue development of Plan 9 even though ~~the front fell off~~ resources and support within Bell Labs were and are rapidly shrinking. It is a next generation mushroom cloud computing platform for the 20th century. You may honestly be shocked when you see that most of the developers of 9front are actual employees of Bell Labs.

Within the /lib folder, 9front contains plain text copies of The Manifesto of the Communist Party, the Constitution of the United States, and many other highly important documents that have immense historical importance and so deserve a place in the official documentation of the operating system.

9front also provides these features over Plan 9 from Bell Labs:

Support for more hardware
WLAN (Wi-Fi) capability
Real mode emulation
AMD64 kernel
Encoders and decoders for various audio formats
The Mothra web browser with anti-aliased fonts
A new bootloader and init script system
Audio support
Full disk encryption
Unicode support in vt
rc-httpd
Nintendo and Sega emulators

-'''9Front''' is a fork of [[Plan 9]]. They have been described as 25% developing an OS and 75% making fun of everyone else. Their website is designed to be as edgy as possible and looks like a schizophrenic made it. Multiple satire web pages exist within the main site, mocking [[4chan]], [[Time Cube]], [[Temple OS]], and others.
-Their Code of Conduct page is different on each [[HTTP Request]], all different and making obscure reference to multiple things, such as The Necronomicon, Mayan literature, ''The Epic of Gilgamesh'', The Egyptian Book of the Dead, Rules of American Congressional Meetings, The Three Laws of Robotics from the movie [[Movies|iRobot]], [[Licenses|The MIT and three-clause BSD Licenses]], a variety of sacred oaths, and many other things.
