Both comfortable and safe. Here in Washington, we go swimming in 7-9c weather on occasion.  B)

I really wish that we'd just make organic hardware already, that grows and adapts to the demands it needs to meet. That way, grannies' computers can be floppy sacks of organicness and the 12 year old Minecrafters will look like the guys that only do bicep curls, and the nerdy programmers will finally have justice, with their body-builder rigs that skipped leg day.

18C is pretty much the highest we get in Baltic Sea so yeah it's perfectly fine. It's doable at 15C.  :lol:

Haha. Did you use a wetsuit or a drysuit or are you that badass?

Whatever I have handy. I have both a wetsuit and drysuit from my days in Hawaii, but I generally just go in a generic swimsuit, shorts. The coldness takes a bit to get used to, but with the rivers/ocean here, we gotta deal with it :) Unless there's a temperature-controller pool, it's ~15c or lower for us. It's better in the Summer, obviously, but the rivers/ocean is still generally ~14c or lower.

Sure it is, it's uncomfortable at first but it ain't bad. Some sauna always helps.

I almost forgot. We swim in water that is cold enough to freeze, so around 0. Now that is cold.

I'm from toronto so Lake Ontario  can be pretty cold at times. Temps fluctuate a lot here, yesterday it was 11C and now its 18.1C (BTW there was no rainstorm to get the temp low). Last year the temp reached a maximum of 14C and the year before it was 24C.

bath = swim. It is the same in bada/simma (swim) and bada(bath) in Swedish so I easily confuse it.

Same here, we ain't exactly blessed with summer heat.

I hope it'll be better soon. I can't sustain myself on PC alone.
