For good reason.

You should be more detailed. At first you talked about old distro, now we are
talking about old systems. The first is software, the second is hardware and
software in my understanding.

No, you died due to ageing. Nothing lasts forever.
You can stop but the world will move on.

I don't see how we could be helpful. If you have an old computer a virtual
machine would not be working. I put an old windows95 programm into a
VirtualBox VM and it sill works well but it doesn't need to be online.

To keep in touch with online services you need to update to supported
protocols. The only option i see if you have really no other option to migrate
your system is a gateway server that can talk to the actual world with the
latest security protocols and translates the data to the outdated ex-standards.
