Inspiring.
Someone should do some research. What was the typical DSL bitrate in 2000? How many people were still using 56k modems? Can probably find a way to put in a cap and delay packets from the serverside. None of this unclassic modern internet crap.
Also, what about typical processor speeds? More work obviously but it would likely be possible to force a function into the main loop that estimates effective clockspeed and sleeps off any excess beyond what was typical for the time. Let's turn back the clock on Moore's Law.
