My philosophy of life is that when you are in shit and you stay there for a long time, you get used to it and you get hardened and you don't care about anything.

You just make shitty angels.

It's a kind of stoicism but in shit.

Whenever the local GMRS channel 17 repeater transmits I can also hear its output on channels 2 and 3. 🤔

First I believed in no God.

Then I saw the devil.

Then I had revelations.

Then I saw auras.

Then I decided to read the Bible, only for intellectual purposes.

Finally, I interpreted the story of Adam and Eve to be some kind of sexual parable.

Then I had a child, and I declared Christ is Lord.

Now I take the bible seriously.

Now I know what the bible actually says, equal to or better than theologians.

Now I understand the spirit of the words in the Bible.

Now I see premonitions in dreams that come true years later and I experience them my own eyes.

Now I have dreams where I meet Christ and the Father face to face.

Now I understand the story of Adam and Eve is about the patterns of thinking that bring about hate, deception, false modesty, fragile ego, self loathing and judgement of everyone.

Now I have no choice but to believe in God.

So, looking at raw numbers with 50,000 devices:

Your individual odds = 1 in 50,000

Waiting time = 75-80 days

So you're looking at:

• A 0.002% chance of mining a block

• Waiting ~2.5 months for that tiny chance

With 1 million devices:

Your individual odds = 1 in 1,000,000

Waiting time = 3-5 days

That's:

• A 0.0001% chance of mining a block

• Every 3-5 days, someone in that million gets lucky

• But it's probably not you

However, these statistics are oversimplified. Here's how Bitcoin mining actually works:

Your real chance of mining a block = (Your hashrate / Total network hashrate)

For perspective:

• With 1 TH/s of mining power, odds are roughly 1 in 249,694,649 per block

• A new block is mined every ~10 minutes

• But it's a continuous probability game, not a scheduled event

When more devices join the network:

1. The total network hashrate increases

2. Your individual device's hashrate stays the same

3. Therefore, your relative share (and odds) decrease

So when they say 'a device will mine a block every X days,' it's misleading—it's a network-wide statistic, like saying 'someone will win the lottery every drawing.' It doesn't improve your individual device's chances; more competition actually makes your odds worse.

This is why solo mining has largely been replaced by industrial mining operations—the odds for individual miners have become increasingly unfavorable as the network has grown.

I don't gamble, and I don't play the lottery. These devices are fun and educational, but they are expensive lottery tickets with worse odds.

decentralised courts fix this

I am really kinda proud of myself rn. Stacked some sats in the middle of the night. 🫂🥹

It was due to not being able to sleep and just habitually popping in on here and seeing a note that said... buy the dip.

So I checked and sure it was a deep dip. But I followed my intuition to instead of buying this dip set a target thinking btc might just drop another $1500ish while I sleep. Woke up to the good news. 😃

killing in defence of the innocent is literally justice

After being abused by her mother’s boyfriends for years, including allegedly being raped and burned with cigarettes when she was nine, Ashlee Martinson killed her mother and stepfather. In prison, she said she felt safer and happier than she ever did at home.

44A would be my choice, i like my espresso

Great things on the horizon 🙏

1 more week 😇

it's just the tip of the dip
