I thought there were nodes in blockchain.

Yes and Mongo helped us a lot to get thinks off the ground, but we're now moving everything to postgres with JSON for some time.

"which make doing software renderers a lot easier than the planer modes of the old chipsets."

Which is the reason that 3D gaming took really off with chipsets that support software rendering instead of GPUs.

The PS1 and the CD32 are around the same time and show how Commodore had no clue about 3D, but Sony delivered (Also Nintendo with the Super FX).

"keeping compatibility."

This killed the Amiga.

It doesn't look like AAA [1] has any 3D?

From what I remember it was more like my Retina Z3 card but better. Had some discussions at conferences, it seemed Amiga hardware engineers didn't believe in 3D and were frozen in their graphics mindset of blitter and copper (huge when I wrote 68k demos in the mid-80s, but meaningless when 3D happened).

Still remember enjoying Descent. And how I argued with Commodore staff at conferences on why Amigas didn't move into hardware 3d as it was the clear future to see.

Thanks!

Nice!

Just asking, because I'm interested. Do you use it to pay Amazon? Your phone bill? You power provider? These are the areas I (Germany) currently use SEPA direct debit and would know how SEPA payments is used/replaced in other countries.
