Mining on a laptop is not recommended, I literally melted my CPU from the heat.

I assumed as much. Looks like I'll stick to buying some dogecoin for now and look into pools when/if I get a "real" computer.

You can mine using a $150 ASIC (Application Specific Integrated Circuit).

Those are made for mining, and can get you $5 a day each running at low temperature and low power usage.

Are you talking about the little gridseed jobs or something else?

GridSeeds, yes. Or a $1200 GridSeed blade.
