I’d say swap ubi with epic first. Epic is evil while Ubisoft is just incompetent. Then you can swap epic up to the top or whatever.

Haha that’s exactly how I felt after installing it! Glad you like it. Just to be aware, you can have issues, but I’ve only had issues like twice in the past 9 months and they were fixed by updating like a week later.

The second has nothing to do with capitalism. They are ethical questions that have nothing to do with political systems or governments. They’re meant to have you think about things in a deeper manner. There’s a lot less to think about with the second than the first and thus doesn’t really matter in an educational setting.

Like I said, you’re making a lot of assumptions about the first that aren’t stated. Here’s a few to get you started, though there’s many many many others.

  1. You are stealing from a starving family
  2. You are about to die from old age and are stealing from a very young person
  3. You just got out of jail for murdering an immigrant and are only starving due to your own life decisions
  4. You are starving because you wasted all your money gambling
  5. You are stealing from a baby

Etc etc etc

So you don’t know the wonders of geocities or stumbleupon then?

Yeah you clearly don’t know how modern languages work. Most “scripting languages” are compiled nowadays, in a preprocess step.

I think you have a lot of beliefs about the first that are not stated. There are many many ways to frame the first in which you would not so easily answer yes. There are very few ways to frame the second in which it’s ethical.

For a serious answer, because ethics is concerned with self. You already know the answer to the second question and will very likely never be in that situation. You do not know the answer to the first and have a much higher likelihood of being in that situation.

Cachy is the easiest Linux os I’ve ever used and I’ve used a good number of them.

Completely ignoring the fact that humans just existing on islands killed thousands of bird populations. https://www.creaf.cat/en/articles/humans-may-have-caused-extinction-1430-species-birds

This is pretty well documented for Hawaii, where yes the fish population did fine, but the bird population did not.
