I'm getting 5th/s out of my overclocked Block Erupter, it is spitting blue fire like a Lamborghini and the temperature in my room is 129 degrees help!

There are several different types of Bitcoin clients. The most secure are full nodes like Bitcoin Core, but full nodes are more resource-heavy, and they must do a lengthy initial syncing process. As a result, lightweight clients with somewhat less security are commonly used.

I remember seeing that earlier this year. I like the caption "Miner measuring the hash per minute rate of his new rig."  Grin

Is gruel and rice expensive these days? I'm not sure about the energy efficiency of these minor miners.

  “I can’t believe I just invested in all these kids,” said one dejected mother-slash-miner.  “Pretty soon they’ll all be completely useless.”

For what shall it profit a man, if he shall gain the world, and lose his own soul?

I can only imagine how many other would-be bitcoiners saw this and were instantly convinced bitcoin was evil.

“The blockchain was built off the sweat of child labor. I can get a solid 1, or even 2 hash per minute from each kid. Give them an abacus and it skyrockets to 3 or 4 hash/minute.  Do you have any idea how many idle children there are in India? That’s a lot of Satoshi.”

love that.
