People from the "hotter" regions, how do you deal with the heat?
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 stay inside with AC on as much as I can for June, July, and August. I know many homes in Europe don't have AC, but if we didn't have it here, we would likely have very high heat-related death rates. It has been 100-104°F (38-40°C) almost every day for the past 6 weeks. And at night, it only gets as low as 80°F (26.5°C). It's brutal. So AC is the answer.
But from mid September through the end of May, we can be outside almost the whole time. There's the occasional cold snap in winter, but on a regular day, it can be as warm as 80°F (26.5°C) in December and January.
Gosh, it's peaking here at 36°C and I'm already dying, not really used to high temperatures. My condolences to people having to deal with 40°C weather
