Re the web browsers I think you're right. You may get away with a more lightweight browser like SeaMonkey or Falkon, maybe like 1 tab of Chromium lol
Distros I'd try on that would be Linux Mint Debian Edition, Debian w/ lightweight DE like LXDE or Xfce, or Arch Linux 32 if you really want to make it minimalist. Gentoo if you're very adventurous but with my EEE PC I found compile times took up to days.
I see, thanks for the clarification and bonus tidbit on that!
For those across the pond, 3658mm of rain (12')
Really sets it in seeing it in mm
Edit: See below comment, I completely misinterpreted the storm surge meaning
Seconding LMDE, been on it for a year on my study laptop. Literally never ever had a problem so far, and being an "out of box" distro there's minimal work needed to daily drive.
Working at a computer shop, Lenovo ThinkPads are usually pretty fine, but the main fault we've seen with them is lack or completely missing thermal compound. On one occasion I saw my colleague's machine not post, and IIRC we had to reset the CMOS to get it back up.
Sky News being least biased with high factual and credibility??? And the mods are surprised when we users keep protesting and downvoting this damn bot.
Enshittification truly is a shame, because my old school GPS actually does this already (Turn left past the McDonald's) and while I have no idea whether it's paid promotion or not on my device, I like that feature. If that feature is equally applied to any known business as a landmark (heck, even other services like police stations, fire stations, etc.) it would be appreciated by users.
Instead, and here we are beating this drum again, capitalism gets its grubby fingers in this pie too and uses it for further advertising, turning a good feature into a bad one.
Don't be so certain - I'd recommend Windows 10 Enterprise LTSC IoT over Windows 11 any day
I don't think it is right? The environment looks completely different and the one in the post is 12", which the 11"8 (or now 12"4) never was.

I'm gonna beat the same drum most people beat here, you know it's dystopian when you need the manufacturer's permission to be "let" delete something from your device. This criticism equally applies to Android devices with locked bootloaders.
