There is a non-insignificant amount of people who just throw away their computer when something gets messed up because they don't know how to reinstall windows. Not only do average people not know how to install an operating system, they don't even know how to learn. Many people have help, techie friends and family, but many don't, and they can sadly only be helped at scale.

    There is a project called tauri that uses the web browser libraries provided by operating systems. The problem is that each operating system has a different browser library, so features may not be supported or can work differently. Browser vendors seem allergic to actually following the standards for some reason.

    If something has mold, specifically, then that whole food and anything else in the same package is bad, even if you can't see the mold on other pieces. This is because mold is a microorganism and you only see it with your eyes when an extremely large amount collects.

    You can install it as a Progressive Web App in Chromium based browsers, the GNOME web browser and anything else that supports PWAs (firefox with the special extension, for example) and as a PWA it does run offline. But you cannot download it yourself and run it manually as the code is not available to download.

    Unrelated to this exact discussion, but like, the law does not dictate morality nor the other way around. If I believe that using someone's hard work to make a profit without paying them or contributing some work of your own is morally wrong, I can reasonably say it's 'stealing'. Even if the person who did the work fully understands that the license under which the work was released makes it not actually stealing.

    I am judging someone as a thief, not legally but morally.
