    25 years ago, I configured GNOME to run a BeOS-like tabbed window manager. On a sun workstation.<p>But that&#x27;s not what this is. Or not only:<p><i>Nexus Kernel Bridge</i><p><i>Nexus is Vitruvian&#x27;s custom Linux kernel subsystem that brings BeOS-style node monitoring, device tracking, and messaging to Linux — making it possible to run Haiku applications on a standard Linux kernel.</i><p>It claims to run apps from Haiku, the current open-source implementation of a modern BeOS.

    <i>Vitruvian asks a different question: what would I actually want to do with my computer that I currently can’t?</i><p>Only be able to drag a window around the screen from the top left corner

      To be fair that&#x27;s one more corner than Tahoe.

        Touché, and such a good reminder why everyone should wait for macOS 27.

    This is interesting - a Linux distro that really differentiates itself <i>technically</i>, instead of just having a different GUI &#x2F; desktop environment.

      Ah yes! It is human at the center. Now things are starting to make sense.

      I don&#x27;t see any actual <i>context</i>, just vacuous slop.

    So this is a lighter weight alternative to other Linux desktops?

    is there a debian distro that is close to win98. Sorta like ReactOS but can be daily-driven.
