generally, bluetooth is considered fine for audio, not so much for audio + video
you don't notice a delay in processing when listening to music, but trying to sync what is on screen to bluetooth headphones is difficult
most wireless headphones that are good for watching movies etc aren't bluetooth, or if they are they have their own dongle and don't rely on the built in hardware
my bluetooth headphones don't cause flickering with youtube but I notice if I'm watching a video that they aren't perfectly in sync and with my laptop either the drivers or the hardware isn't perfect, I have to reset connections fairly often to keep the performance acceptable

Does water in a sink or toilet really spin either clockwise or anti-clockwise? I could swear that the water in the toilet just flushes straight down

It's a thing called the Coriolis Effect - its basically the inertia of objects (in this case, water) against the earth's rotation. Its effect on bodies of water as small as a toilet bowl or a sink basin are negligible though

Air conditioning, evaporative cooling or ceiling/pedestal fan?

Actually an urban myth I heard. It spins how the sink is designed.
A cyclone, typhoon or twister can spin a different way however depending on hemisphere and season.

Its your electricity bill.
I prefer to switch it off and do ceiling fan.. when i get a ceiling fan the new place doesn't have them.

How does it work? Ive never experienced it. All i know is that you have to have a window open to let air come in. But what if it's hot outside? Hot air comes in.

Have evaporative cooling at my parents house. Basically what it does is create a cool wind through your house by fan forcing air through a radiator on the roof, which is why you need to have a window open to allow the breeze through.
Works pretty damn well, and it's not as drying as regular AC can be. And that's before you consider that its cheaper to run as it uses less electricity
