Is it cold in here?:
--- Quote from: Near Lurker on 18 Apr 2013, 12:22 ---50-60 is very hot for any serious physical exertion.

Fahrenheit.
Adult Sven seems to be a good brother but Dora still has emotional scars from teenage Sven.
Marigold would be low maintenance but there'd be the endless task of protecting her from bullies.

As in, I like to do serious exertion in the 50-60 F range, and I wear a moderately light jacket (one that's thin enough to wear even when it's 70 F out, if it's raining) even when it's below 0 F.

You think 18-21 C is cold? That's adorable! That's like summer-temperatures.

Not only is it summer temperatures, it's also too warm for my taste… If it were up to me, I would have +13°C in the summer, and -15°C in the winter. Well. I'm a strange person sometimes. It's because of the heat. It's too warm here. Definitely the heat. :roll:
Also our flat is directly under the roof, so I rarely ever have to use the radiator. I would prefer temperatures of around 17°C indoors, but currently, when I return from school we have 25°C in the whole flat. And summer hasn't even really started yet. Well, and my room's window opens into some kind of a back courtyard, so the air is barely moving in my room when I open all the windows in the flat.
Well, I just looked at the forecast. Today we had 16°C outside, tomorrow we will have 7°C and -3°C and snow at night… Well, at least it won't be so warm anymore! Woo!

We're not talking about outside temperatures though, we're talking about building temperatures. For humans, 72 F (78 was a typo) is the temperature at which heat created by metabolism and lost due to dissipation are at equilibrium, so 65-70 is cold in relation to that for people sitting in an office trying to do paper and computer work. I'm up and about running a scanner (and I arrive when it's still 55 F outside), and my 65 F office still has me shrugging in and out of a jacket all day.
As was mentioned about exercise, when metabolism is amped up it's good for the temperature to be lower to compensate.
ankhtahr:
well, then I completely missed the point. Welp. Sorry. (I blame this on me being supposed to be sleeping for two hours already…)
Anyway, 78°F? 25.56°C? That's too warm for me. Far too warm. Everything above 70 is really uncomfortable to me, be it indoors or outdoors.
