IT Certification #2

Another good introductory certification that one will find recommended very often, especially on various subreddits, is CompTIA's Network+. The exam covers the various types of computer networks and how to set them up as well as troubleshoot them. Considering the later exam topics do in fact make use of the information covered on this one, I thought it was best to knock this one right after A+. So far, I have found that I have some knowledge already, but that I definitely need some dedicated studying.

Japanese AC vs. American AC

Air conditioning in Japan is different than in the U.S.
In general, U.S. houses have "central air", in which air is pumped throughout the house through a heating/cooling system built into the walls.
In Japan, however, in general, every room has its own AC unit, which also works as heating. In general, these units don't cool more than the span of one room.
Since I only have one A/C unit in my house, I basically contain myself to one room in the house on super hot days.
When I first moved in, I was naive enough to think that this one AC box could cool the whole house if I left the doors open. I was wrong.
