However, the scale of energy involved makes home power production physically impossible. Ambient RF energy harvesting typically captures power measured in microwatts or milliwatts. This is barely enough to trickle-charge a tiny wireless temperature sensor or power a low-energy IoT (Internet of Things) device. 2026-06-29T16:03:00+02:00 https://nostr.ae/nevent1qqs8kzntg72yfjwhv7vkr326kgvnw59wruzzd43z64yhwfyf8mekewqzyz9c8nkkyff4l0v945lgej5xzd89qsjg6hey9lda04wwgun6f7r7vlyl2ze In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqsqqqx72f48h9alt40lwnvdurv4w02vhqtxacxuvmlrp09nsu9t8ngprpmhxue69uhhyetvv9ujuurjd9kkzmpwdejhgteqr5l9ys'>nevent1q…l9ys</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>No (it has thermal protection) but I had to move it around the house to find a cool spot.

You asked a valid question and it would be interesting to know the extremes of block intervals. However…<br/><br/>I always thought that blocks excluded reference to real world time. So unless somebody is recording the real world times when blocks are made, the only “time” we have for the historical blockchain is the block number.<br/><br/>Off topic: I have a strange theory about fish in ponds. Fish have no sense of time other than their heartbeats and because they are cold blooded their hearts slow down in winter. Does that mean that for fish winter flies by and summer goes on for ages? There’s a disconnect between fish time and real world time.<br/><br/>Back to topic: I think something similar happens with real world time and blockchain time. 2024-05-19T21:23:41+02:00
