    Do you use a steam mop on laminate floors?

    What will you do in your self-driving car?

    You've got your self-driving car, and now that you don't need to pay attention to the road, what will you do to keep from getting bored? I will play Plants vs Zombies on my smartphone.

    What do you keep the thermostat at in the winter?

    67 - 70 when at home and awake. Depends on how drafty it feels. 64 when sleeping or out of the house.

    Windows 10 and gaming

    Windows 10 and gaming

    How long will it be before Windows 7 and 8 users are no longer capable playing new game titles? Will games soon have DirectX 12 requirements that force everyone to Win10?
