If software is so poorly described that it looks like it was written up by a distracted 10 year old, but I'm somehow hearing about it anyway, it must be interesting software.
It's also probably software I will not be able to get working, but it'll be interesting.

In the era of ubiquitous translation tools with the target of the most spoken human language (and the lingua franca of software), spelling mistakes like "awesone", "beatiful", and "tecnology" are not a language barrier thing, they're laziness.
Those are spelling errors you make by misspelling words, not by using translation. Usually a native English speaker will not make so many by the time they get to be able to program, and a spell...
Those are spelling errors you make by misspelling words, not by using translation. Usually a native English speaker will not make so many by the time they get to be able to program, and a spell checker might catch them. But installing foreign language spell check dictionaries is not something I know how to do. It's clear the writer was too lazy to do it, but that might not be very lazy.
It's so bad this has to be a joke, right? I'm all for doing weird things with old software and hardware, but is there really an audience for running modern applications on old Windows versions?...

I'm all for doing weird things with old software and hardware, but is there really an audience for running modern applications on old Windows versions? Most people who still run old Windows versions are doing it on separate hardware they use exclusively for compatibility with some specific applications or games they enjoy (Clint/LGR comes to mind).
Lots of people who run new Windows versions wish they didn't have to, but the minimum supported version of the software they want to run on the OS keeps increasing. I don't think it's a joke, so...

I don't think it's a joke, so much as a person who does not realize how big the project they're proposing is. Same sort of person who says "I'm going to make a Skyrim-sized video game!" and then does some concept art. The large-at-first-glance repo linked below appears to be almost entirely a copypaste of ReactOS's codebase.
Doesn't exactly inspire confidence.

Have you seen the "lorem ipsum" placeholder text yet? That killed my confidence completely for this one.

The "Ported Drivers" module when you scroll down has "Lorem ipsum" placeholder text as well.
