We’ve all been through the frustration of an uncomfortably hot computer - you’re in the middle of a 3-hour dungeon crawl (or the fifth episode in a row of Game of Thrones), and suddenly the fan kicks into high-gear and your laptop starts burning into your legs.

But a Japanese twitter user has come up with the ultimate (and easiest) solution to the problem: simply stack copper coins on top of your machine to cool it down, using the power of thermodynamics.

Right now, you’re either sitting there bowing down to the genius we’ve just gifted your life, or are wondering how the hell we hadn’t already figured that out, and in the case of the latter, bravo to you. You’re officially better than us at applying chemistry to the requirements of modern computing.
