Okay, so there is this browser called Mypal based on a relatively modern (like 68-78) Firefox that runs in Windows XP.
I can Fedi on an old ThinkPad T40 🤪
I can also use this old ThinkPad to run some nice software in Linux like Lagrange here. Oh my, it's so versatile! 🤪
No, unfortunately it is not, Intel Wireless 2100 kernel module is too buggy, all the devices use the same IRQ, in Windows it kinda works, but in Linux it causes "Fatal interrupt. Restarting Firmware" error upon association. It will still connect to the network in a few minutes, but it's not exactly the reliability everyone wants and on waking from sleep you have to do it again 😩
Finally, I have found a challenge worthy of mah here bwoi!
Ta-da!

And guess what? I don't even have to limit it much to fit the requirements — it's so naturally slow!
The only thing I'm not sure about is lowest possible frequency — at 600Mhz even Amfora would probably be unusable 🤣
