Windows 9x Subsystem for Linux
With Windows 9x Subsystem for Linux you can run all your favourite Windows and Linux apps side-by-side with a modern Linux kernel running cooperatively with the Windows kernel in ring 0. And unlike modern WSL, no hardware virtualisation is used so even your 486 can run it! Please enjoy, I think this might be one of my greatest hacks of all time codeberg.org/hails/wsl9x
A screenshot of a post presents Windows 9x Subsystem for Linux, showing several terminal windows and a Windows 95-style system panel. The joke is the absurdly ambitious idea of running modern Linux and Windows applications cooperatively on ancient 486-era hardware, parodying modern WSL announcements and retrocomputing projects.
