How are you dealing with the summer heat?

[Luke_Bowman]

Surely the real answer was a giant mains extension cable to place your warm pc outdoors and a monster monitor lead to come back inside!

Why not just drag the entire thing outside and game on a lazyboy in the shade?

Sitting in my shorts under a big fan -

Is a ceiling fan worth it? I've been looking at one for my bedroom but doesn't seem to be a majority vote on if they're good or not.

Did anyone see Sean Lock on '8 Out of Ten Cats Does Countdown' last night? That's what I want.

Bump.

How much noise does a typical fan make? I'm pretty bad at sleeping with noise

Normally pretty quiet, depends on the size/speed/manufacturer though

I'm sitting in my fridge.

I don't even think it is that warm

I work in a kitchen where the ambient temperature exceeds 50c. It's nice to get out of there into the 30c coolness tbh

A friend of mine's currently on the Maersk Kampala in the Red Sea. Engine room temperatures are around 50 degrees Celsius, whilst it's averaging in the high 20's in the accommodation block, and that's with both air conditioning plants running at full chat.

I merely think of him, whilst sat in the garden with a nice cold Heineken and within range of the wi-fi in the house, and laugh.

I thought working in overalls was bad

Mine are excellent and I don't think they make a lot of noise.

Do you know the model?

Had one in a lot of the hostels i stayed in last year and they make a massive difference. Not really worth it in the UK though I don't think.

 

[Lightnix]

Poorly. I spent a fair bit of the day in the computer labs at uni because they're climate controlled. Back at home now and I am so sticky. This is awful.

 

[Luke_Bowman]

There's one air conditioned room where I work and one which is always heated.

Needless to say this is where I spend my cold winters and warm summers pretending to fix things

 

[dirtychinchilla]

I don't know why so many people are saying things like "I manned up." It's bloody hot, and I don't blame anyone for having 100 fans!! Nice bodge

 

[Dr.EM]

This heat is nothing really, doing squats got a bit sweaty though

 

[Slime]

?

Precisely what I was thinking

This.

I exit the gym looking like I've been in the pool
