Ethereum switched to proof of stake a while ago. So yes. Hardcore crypto fans don't like it because theoretically it could be subject to the 51% attack. Personally, Ethereum is big enough where

A) I don't think that attack is likely and B) the efficiency gains are worth the risk

Disclaimer: I have Ethereum so i benefit from other people buying it. I do honestly think it's better for the environment.

Chrome really needs to introduce a extension denylist. The effect of malicious extensions would be less if you could exclude banking and other sensitive websites.

The current Allowlist is not sufficient because some extensions need to work across most sites.

There's a lot of systems that are simpler, easier, and in my personal opinion, more fun than d&d. For example, FATE. The star wars RPG is pretty good too. Tabletop games can also vary a lot in quality depending on the group and the GM.

Nitpick: niche, sure, but the deck isn't very niche. The mobile gaming market is a established market open to all sorts of gamers.

I agree with you on VR though, that's very nice atm.
