Well, I think you'll need AC anyway, since it works as a heat pump to heat your car up in winter.

I think education needs to be approached from the idea of making learning more fun. No matter the subject.

I agree.

On the topic, I suggest reading "Made to Stick: Why Some Ideas Survive and Others Die" by Chip and Dan Heath to anybody that wants to understand how to convey information (to students, clients, etc.) in a way that can be remembered.

Most of the things that are taught in school are a "remember this forever even if it's completely useless"

This is a great idea, I might create a Laravel package to automatically do this.

This graph comes from Eurostat. It's funded by the EU, but all European countries can participate. That's why Norway and Switzerland are in the graph, even though they are out of the EU.

The UK just doesn't care being European, apparently.

I think media piracy is not only acceptable, but something that should be actively promoted by everyone. Piracy is the only way to preserve media for future generations.

I don't think autorun worked with floppy disks, only with CDs and USB units.

Yes, I remember the guy writing there. That was a serious website! But maybe he sold it to somebody else before Google completely killed their search engine.

Now, if you want to rank well on Google, you either have to churn out stupid articles filled with SEO junk every single day.

I tried in the past, but I think there were problems about the fact that the Windows partition is NTFS, if I recall correctly.

I'd really like to ditch Windows once for all, but I'm sure there's going to be some games that have problems on Linux.

Secrecy and bypassing court orders? It seems like illegal censorship to me.

I mean, macOS is not even 10% and most vendors release apps for it. So this is promising for Linux.

I dual boot. I use Linux most of the time for everything, but I switch to Windows whenever I want to play on Steam. I just don't have the time to bother with abstractions layers, drivers and whatnot, even if I read that Steam makes it easy to run Windows games on Linux now.
