Congrats on your heroic journey of moving #pigz from #Unix to Windows, 🎉 because apparently, the world desperately needed faster #gzipping on an OS that can't spell "pthreads" without a 20,000-line manual. 📝 Next time, maybe try something really challenging, like teaching a penguin to fly. ✈️

How I ported pigz from Unix to Windows

We got a certificate for our winter efforts #penguinchallenge #challengecomplete.
Can't say I'm looking forward to it, but a challenge is a challenge so... I'm off for a #swim in the sea 🥶🐧

The professional photographer I swim with was busy capturing the stars while I was assessing the water temperature (and quietly ruining his photos) 🌟 ⭐️🌙🤩

Went for a moonset swim 🌙

10 min swim, water temp ~5°C, air temp 2°C, windless, hot chocolate necessary

@Amandatron89 looks so tranquil!
I live on the coast and sea swimming is mercurial. 😄
First year of the #penguinchallenge- I only started swimming this summer.
Not a good swim today - there was a ditch in the sand that made a middlin' sized wave knock us over like skittles. After 3 of us getting wiped out, 4 got out and only the tallest & strongest swimmer made it out to calmer water.
Thank goodness for the good swim we had yesterday! It was still lovely catching up with the "mermaids" and starting the day together.

Reservoir getting a wee bit cold now (7°C), but I'm still at it! #OpenWaterSwimming #PenguinChallenge
Incredibly beautiful day for a swim. It's not a particularly good thing that it's 15C in Scotland in mid-November though...
