    Any car people on here?

    Galaxies are super cool cars. My mother had a Mercury Marauder, which I understand is a similar model. My mom still tells me how much she loved that car.

    Any car people on here?

    Turbo 4 or turbo V8? I don't know so much about Espirit. Both options are super cool.

    Any car people on here?

    This is my Ferrari 612 Scaglietti OTO. It is a weekend car that I bought at the very bottom of the depreciation curve with some mechanical issues, and I have finally managed to get it sorted and back to good shape a couple of years ago. For some context, my wife's "family car" Mercedes station...

    Any car people on here?

    Are there any people here that are what I would call "car people" or "enthusiasts"? This could be anything from historic collectors, modern racers, hyper milling EV'ers, and exotic drivers to things like modern regular road cars that are cool in the eyes of the owner. Bikes are of course welcome.

    Television Series

    I second the Fallout series. It was excellent, although I'm a big fan of the game series as well.

    Television Series

    I liked this series. Certainly worth a watch.

    Other hobbies

    A nice day of wandering in the mountains. Wife and I headed up the mountain called Rigi. The views from here are always spectacular on a sunny day. One can take a gear driven train to the top, so it isn't like mountain climbing, more like a casual walk.

    We're number three: best states for retirement

    I spent several years in West Lafayette, Indiana doing my Ph.D. as a collaborative thing with my home university in Switzerland. I enjoyed Indiana, with the people being the best part, and the weather being the worst. I still have bad memories of the wind and cold of winter, and I'm from...

    What video games are you playing lately?

    I kind of stopped Starfield, just because I got bored with it, but I might go back and grind it to the finish. I've been replaying Dead Island 2 and Baldur's Gate.

    The little acoustic is set up for slide playing. There is one more acoustic in the case on the floor, a nice Japanese Takamine. I don't play much acoustic guitar, as you might guess from the photo. :)

    Formula 1

    I would love to see all the rules, beyond those that impact driver/pit crew safety, relaxed. Bring back active aero and suspension and traction control, etc. I find myself more engaged in WEC LeMans lately, as I find F1's attempt at balancing and increasing racing drama counter to the concept...

    Formula 1

    Wife and I are big fans of F1. We have attended GPs in Germany, Austria, Italy, Monaco, Belgium, Texas USA, and Canada. I think next year we will try to make it to Silverstone. This year we went to the Belgian GP at Spa, which was an amazing experience. We took three weeks vacation and toured a...

    Home made pizza

    I have one of those Ooni gas fired pizza ovens. I'm really having a good time making pizza in my back garden.

    Hello all, a bit of an introduction

    That will not fit on my patio. :) Also, I don't think my wife would approve.

    Hello all, a bit of an introduction

    We can get most things I see on Homebrewing discussion pages, with the exception of some of the thiolized recombinant yeasts as they violate the Swiss laws on GMO products for food/beverages. I think we can get a few of the naturally bred thiol strains, but not the really active Omega ones.

    Hello all, a bit of an introduction

    It isn't super rare to see a Swiss Leopard 2 main battle tank rolling around on a public road here. They always get the right of way, as they can pretty easily crush a car. Once every few years you might see like 20 of them rolling through a town, along with infantry armoured vehicles and...
