This thing makes it so you can't hear yourself, though. So it has that added difficulty.

How will small artists get to make themselves known, though? Not everyone has the option to play live.

What if doing a little harm today leads to more good tomorrow (so, a net positive amount of good)? And in a year? And in two centuries?

I was referring to the "we should go extinct" part, I agree that what we're doing to nature is horrible but I don't think collectively dying is the answer. Honestly it would speak wonders for human exceptionalism if we actually managed to get this under control.

I recommend reading this section of the "Spanish colonization of the Americas" Wikipedia article, which has plenty of sources. Obviously they weren't saints, but, at the time, they were "the dawn of human rights" (cited in the article) and took Christian values very seriously, which is also why they converted all the population forcefully. There's no denying that, but, as a silver lining, education and religion were almost one and the same, and they did build many universities, schools, etc.

When I visited the United States, they always tried to paint it as "they were all equally bad" when it came to colonizers in the museums I went to. However, I feel like that is because the "situation" with natives was way worse in North America than it was in South America.

I use fedora as well and I just update through the GUI. It's more stable that way and waiting until I turn off my computer for them to apply is not a big deal.
