    Yup. Since each roll is independent of each other, you start each roll fresh, previous rolls are irrelevant.
    Probability is usually accurate as you tend toward infinity.

    Your line of thinking is kind of like gamblers fallacy

    Computer random generator is not exactly random... hence you probably need to do it 2 times to get the accurate probability

    like clicking 200-300 times, maybe you will get 2 of the the item you are looking for or if you are lucky can get 3-4 of them.
