we really are trying hard to discourage the use of hardware without (good) cooling solutions here. so it's probably better to say: do NOT use any laptop instead of "I would run this on my laptop"
we also try to make it very clear that for -a 3 you always *should* specify a mask... because users somehow tend to believe that without a mask it is just doing --increment ?b?b?b?b?b?b?b (but from the documentation it's very clear that it's not the case: https://hashcat.net/wiki/doku.php?id=has...ult_values)
Anyway, I think (except from these small cherry picks) you guys are giving some great advice. I like this kind of (quick) help/community a lot. Thx
Point taken; I run a lot on my laptop and have never had any major issues, but it is not the recommended way of doing such things. Listen to phil, don't listen to me
