I am from Eastern Europe and this is the hottest summer on my memory. For at least 3 consecutive years the heat is breaking all records.

This stuff is unbearable, I can't even play video games on my laptop, because it warms up very fast and the keyboard becomes uncomfortable for me to use.

So, could you please share any useful tips on how do you survive the summer?

I wish the temperature outside dropped below my house temp. If I run AC at even a money saving 83 degrees inside, the exterior doesn't drop below that until around 6am.

I mean if you have air conditioning, then most tips here are irrelevant and the only tip would be "put your air conditioning on".

Almost all areas on or north of the Alps in Europe don't have AC (cos they never needed it) and buildings are made to keep heat in.
