What else are you super knowledgeable about?

I know nothing about anything. But I'll tell you what, my wife is a know it all. She has an answer for anything you ask. But she can't change a fuse in an electric plug or get a spider out of the bath. I am not an expert or anything but I have been building motorbikes for years and years. I am pretty good on my (metal) lathe and milling machine and better than a lot of people with a paint spray gun (others have told me!). I still learn new stuff on a daily basis.
 
Cyber/information security, cooking, fantasy football, not murdering my 5-year-old children every day…

I knew it’d be diverse and interesting!

Before being a forumite (when it was just MSN and music players keeping me on the desktop) I learned a bit about bicycle parts, snowboards and skateboards with grand schemes of buying gear or modding it (in the case of bikes).

I think photography is awesome but I dont edit photos I take or know a ton about camera models like I do say delay pedals.

Guitar gear is what I know best. Could be worse!
 
Running! I am a dolt when it comes to electrical work, but try and sometimes succeed in guitar building (at least from parts like a body, neck, ...). But when it comes to running, I can beat people MUCH younger than me in any distance up to a marathon.
 
Two-stroke carburetors. And right now, I'm learning the hard way how dependent they are on pre-ignition.
 
The insights on corrupt science and credible science in particular with cosmology and cosmogony.

A touchy yet fascinating insight
 
My paternal grandfather was in the unit that liberated Dachau. He never talked about it, and it was only after he passed that my mom told me when she was showing me his uniform and other stuff from his time in the service. I was eighteen or nineteen, and that sparked an avid interest in learning more about WWII, particularly the European theater. I’ve read hundreds of books and have stacks of DVD documentaries on the subject.
 
Telephony, Unified Communications especially the Microsoft UC Stack, the conbination of Business Strategy and Technology solutions driving it, these days pretty much UCaaS and AI solutions as they related to Line of Business solutions. Large scale migrations for enterprise companies.... Also lots of experience in sound production. So anything that I talk about puts my wife to sleep.
 
Sport science and training in general.
It looks like everything I lack in music I got in physical training.
Hard to explain but I'm sort of dumb in the music application... Every time someone (teacher, YT video, whatever) shows a new something I'm like "I would never ever in my life discovered this"... also basic things like tapping, economy picking or using a middle finger.

I love working on old cars and turning them into hot rods.. I. Currently am working on building A 69 Cougar 351W 4-v Building sub frame rails to tighten up the unibody car. Currently working on replacing Torque box’s and a lot of sheet metal taking all the rust out. Then the motor will come out and I’ll build the motor and sand and paint the engine compartment and car in pieces then reassemble.

Programmer mainly c++ and c#. Wouldn't call myself an expert though. It seems to just move too fast to keep up. A constant swim upstream.
I'm also not at all surprised that there seems to be lots of programmers and electronics nerds on this forum. Fractal seems to be the logical choice.
