You say PoS is an oligarchy, but it still offers anyone to participate in markets they previously were unable to. For example, providing liquidity and getting a cut of transaction fees - this is something TradFi has a monopoly on, but now everyday people can get a cut. You’re right that people with more money will have a bigger cut - but it’s still more equal than TradFi
You’re partially correct with some of these points.
Theatge amount of energy you mention is really only relevant to proof of work. You’ve mentioned proof of stake etc - so you should know that. The energy requirements for “proof” techniques such as PoS is negligible
Reversing transactions are ‘hard’/infesable - and so in a way they do help scammers - but I think it’s a false equivalence. It helps everyone. In my mind it’s like says “encryption helps terrorists”, that may be true, but it helps us all.
Regarding on chain transaction transparency, there are some chains that are like this (bitcoin), and there are some chains that are not (monero). There’s also ways to anonymise transactions through mixers etc if you do care about that. Although, I don’t know of anyone that gets their salary into their crypto wallet.
Overall, regulation is slow! But it’s getting there. I don’t think crpyto will solve all of.humans problems, but I might just help with some. It’s going to be interesting seeing how it all plays out - people thought it was going to be here and gone in a year, but it’s been over a decade now.

100usd off of store purchases are nothing. I am just imagining they have postponed their 100usd off black Friday deal for another 6 months to justify this ‘payment’
They don’t lose anything from this offer.
HDR and VRR (g-sync) compatible?
I’ve just googled steamos, that’s Debian 8 right (which is eol, weird…)
So I’m guessing Debian 8 (and hopefully newer) will get support too soon?
It’s been a while for me using a gui for Linux (headless Debian is my go-to)
Does that mean Kubuntu? (KDE Ubuntu) And for VRR (GSYNC/FREESYNC) would Kubuntu also support that do you know?
When I’ve tried to Google before, it seems like no distro really supports these as well as windows ATM (although the steam OS comment may show things are changing)
Any Linux distro do HDR / VRR yet?
Ide? Sata? M.2 baybeeee
Yeah!
Now hopefully they can enable HDR video playback within the next few years (bug open for 5 years at this point)
