So those specs are like 20 years out of date, and then I checked when was the last time May 4 was on a Thursday, and it was 2023.

Good, it would be concerning if they were a minor

I mean there's a chance that machine is still running Windows Vista.

I definitely ran xp sp3 on my duo, Ubuntu was brand new back then

The last times May 4 was on a Thursday were 2006, 2017 and 2023. The Core 2 wasn't released until July of 2006 so I'd guess the correct year is 2017, but even then the hardware was already pretty dated. For reference, in 2017 the first generation Ryzen prozessors and Intel Kaby Lake (7th generation Core i) were around.
