I use 2 FullHD screens where one is dedicated to code and the other is for console, project explorer, logviewer etc. All the other stuff is in different workspaces (Unfortunately I must develop on Windows, but I found mDesktop that allows to create virtual desktops).

Actually this is not a good motivator, find something you like, otherwise you end up with a 3 month (or a year :P) gym etc. pass and still not exercise. With this kind of forcing you might actually start hating exercise.

Hehe, luckily it's not that easy to get the ID-card.

You have to prove you are Estonian citizen (or become one) and the system is secure enough that people can trust their money and sign legal documents with this system.

Actually this is one weak point in the system. If some crook gets hold of your ID-card and your PIN codes, he can sign documents that are legally binding. (For example sell your house for a dollar etc.)

In Estonia you can vote from almost anywhere if you have ID-card and working internet connection.

It's really convenient and people are using this more and more. For example last elections 15.75% of votes were made using internet. Official statistics can be found from http://vvk.ee/voting-methods-in-estonia/engindex

Also there are talks that they want to enable voting with mobile phones (there are already solutions where you can log in to banks and other websites with mobile phones).
