Why year? I get 1$ every 10 day from one desktop with equihash

That's possible, but AFAIK, the discussion is about mining bitcoin using a desktop PC (which is close to impossible). Equihash means you're mining altcoins, which is fine to, but such discussions belong in the altcoin mining subforum.

It is not impossible to use your pc to mine, you can easily join a pool with your pc, slushpool for example, however your #mhash is going to be so small, that your earnings will be almost nothing.

I guess it is good for education purposes, but indeed, it is not worth it nor will you ever be close to breakeven.

Don't use your desktop . It will be destroyed in some weeks . Also if you mine with desktop you will get just some bucks in some months .
You will earn maximum 10 euros monthly , if you really want mining just buy a rig

Why should it be destroyed if you set a max hash the pool/program is allowed to use from you? Care to eleborate?
