1st law of thermodynamics :
There is something that will always be the same.
2nd law of thermodynamics :
Everything else always changes and never will be what it was before.
Welcome to the ultimate rabbit hole! Enjoy your journey. Let me say, with a healthy amount of unearned confidence, that I think your conception of the 1st is a little off. Everything is always changing, it’s just that frame of reference is what makes it APPEAR to be constant. If something seems to be unchanging, a step back will show that not only is the original thing changing, but the observer is changing along with it. Great thing about all of this is, if you ever find yourself with nothing to think about, or you need the ultimate distraction, physics will always give you something else to think about. Enjoy the journey! 🙂
in my post header you will find a link to the original post. This place is for my personal archiving and testing.
Nevertheless, if I follow what you are saying here you mean to say : by changing frame of references we can violate conservation of energy …or am I missing something ?

I always think of it as:
1st law: The quantity of energy never changes
2nd law: The quality of energy is constantly degrading (aka entropy is increasing)
This is a very good formulation and completely in line with current physics…
