My employer does a pretty good job of giving us terrible hardware so the thought of mining on it is self-discouraging.

They have no problems giving us space heaters though.

As largely a joke, I sometimes fire up monero mining on my laptop at home because the average proceeds exceed electricity cost, even though it’ll take me about a decade to ever get a block. The heat is just cake icing.

Why don't you join a pool to get some of that average payout?

Why pay a percentage?
