The $100 OLPC laptop was supposed to revolutionize education.
In the early 2000s, the concept of “One Laptop Per Child” (OLPC) captured the imagination of the world. The ambitious project aimed to provide every child in the world with a low-cost, rugged, and connected laptop, revolutionizing education and bridging the digital divide. It didn't happen.

Though it failed, it sounds like it drove innovation all the same.
Yeah, and I appreciate the goals it had, and even tho if failed, they tried. I am using mine and trying to figure out to post on Lemmy with it, but the browser is old and doesn't do https sites, but if I can figure it out, I wanna use it for my lemmy machine. lol
Sounds like you need a proxy inside your network to connect to the https site and serve it to you without encryption
Working on that to see if I can get it to work.
