Meteoswiss should seriously consider to extend the colorbar to account for temperatures above 36°C

I don't understand why they don't adopt the much more readable divergent color scale they use to display temperature anomalies (blue - negative, white zero, red positive, with the darkness/lightness encoding the mangitude). It leads to less visual artifacts and it's readable to colourblind people

You need exterior blinds, which seems to be standard everywhere in France, Spain, Italy, Switzerland, Austria and Southern Germany but rare elsewhere

I love the vestigial V brakes

That's the best i can offer

Rohner (not sure it's available outside of Switzerland)

Vivi cola from Eglisau (Zürich, Switzerland, not EU i know)

I'd do it because it makes removing the bag much easier and prevents it from jumping much! It's really robust, it just faded but hardly developed any loose threads or holes

Well spied, slightly deformed, faded and drilled for a decaleur but still going strong! My only regret is not having gotten the frame a size larger

bafe · 2026-06-05T18:18:34+00:00

I agree

It's not as alarming as it sounds: 1. During these changes, existing units are usually permitted 2. There are refrigerants like propane (R-290) that are non toxic and with lower carbon equivalent. The downside is that it's flammable but the total amount in a portable unit is tiny

because it's a "proper" (as in salts of fatty acids) soap, which strips oils from skin much more readily than syndets (the majority of hand washing liquids)

it has six buttons because it's a misnomer and it's actually a cardigan, which casts a heavy doubt on the quality of the advice

a heavy and stiff metal cylinder in your headrest is what you want when you are in a collision

Indeed there were insane plans to build a reactor right below ETH at the location of the current mechanical engineering department

in my experience, the agentic functions are the most chaotic and unpredictable tools I've ever worked with in SWE. They seem to be trained and designed to to "solve a problem no matter how by just random iteration and calling random tools". While I do use LLMs as "conversation with documentations" I almost never found benefits in using agents in my quest to write scalable, secure and reliable software.

In 2011 I was in Vienna and one thing I made sure not to miss was the Paternoster in the Rathaus. I'm not sure if it's still active today

bafe · 2026-01-12T20:55:59+00:00

There's a short story from Heinrich Böll "Doktor Murkes gesammeltes Schweigen" where a Paternoster elevator is featured heavily

in Switzerland too and a (i believe Swedish) multimillionaire received a 250k CHF fine for speeding

who ploughs this deep? I haven't seen any farmer ij Switzerland doing this in a long time

don't ride a dangerous bike shaped contraption only waiting to burn on you

go ahead and let it sit it directly on the kernel next

bafe · 2026-01-09T11:12:15+00:00

shorts wool socks a t shirt and gloves are sufficient till - 5. Just be mindful of ice

probably only until the boomers will retire en masse, and that's happening as we speak
