And of course, the dollar, and Wall St. use no electricity whatsoever!

Also, your comment demonstrates your lack of knowledge on even the basics on this topic.

Of course! You have access to actual evidence and not articles directly or indirectly funded by those who would be harmed by moving away from the current system. And of course you've considered it without bias or influence from that group. You are not being propagandized to, no way.

IMO, blockchain technology is good for one use case: illegal transactions.

YES!!!!!

The only thing you're not getting quite right is what it means to be "illegal" and whether the groups making this decision have anyone's interest in mind except their own.

When doing right is or becomes illegal because our country is run by a fascist, that "illegal" money will save lives.

An NFT is a deed. Do you see any uses for a deed that is not in control of a central authority?

but a bank's opinion, that's fact

it's almost certainly not

Consensus algorithms lie at the foundation for a great many of the backend systems our internet depends on, massive scaling would be a near impossibility without them. -- me, a 25 year backed engineer

It makes absolute sense that a massively scalable trustless system involving money would use a consensus algorithm with a large number of nodes.

Just throwing some thoughts out there

• fdisk shows /dev/sdc1 and mount doesn't see it -- did you perhaps unplug it and replug it causing potential renumeration?

• Use the dmesg command to watch Linux detect the device

• Use cat /proc/partitions to see the kernels view of storage devices

• Check out the /dev/disk/by-label, /dev/disk/by-uuid, /dev/disk/by-partlabel etc and see how the point to each other

e.g.

$ ls -l /dev/disk/by-partlabel/arch-root lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 10 Jan 25 19:46 /dev/disk/by-partlabel/arch-root -> ../../sda2
