There's no safety, so you'd generally carry it on an empty chamber. It's also a bit hard to see on the original image, but there's a knife as well. The knife generally had dull sides and a sharp point, making it more of a stabbing weapon instead of a slicing one. You could use the knife on it's own, but it was more likely used in conjunction with the brass knuckles.

I'm having problems getting the embedded hyperlinked image for the knife to link properly, but you can see it here: https://one.nbstatic.fr/uploaded/20230613/10597042/thumbs/450h300f_00001_REVOLVER-COUP-DE-POING-POIGNARD-dit-APACHE-BREVETE-J.-DELEAXHE-ou-DELHAXHE---PISTOLET-SORTIE-DE-BAL.jpg

For when his target wasn’t an adult, but three kids in a trenchcoat.

Pat12,

thank you!

For the non-germans: “Hurensohn” means “son of a whore”. It’s the standard issue insult among younger germans.

lemmyshmemmy,

I’m more concerned about the intense German nationalism

MantidSys,
@MantidSys@kbin.social avatar

/r/Place has always had massive country flags whenever it ran. But the way I see it, the largest murals need the most people working on it, and getting many people involved means having them all be connected in some way, and country-of-origin is the easiest way to do that. Combine that with the fact that the biggest non-English communities on western social media like Reddit (and Lemmy too, now) tend to be German or French, and it's no surprise that the two largest murals are those flags.
You'd wish people would find something else to represent them and have fun with things like this, but people gravitate towards the largest groups they feel a part of. Low hanging fruit, I suppose.

Flax_vert,

France and Germany also have bloody easy flags. Even the UK cannot get their flag perfect easily

Intense US nationalism is by far a bigger threat nowadays.

lemmyshmemmy,

Yes and so is Chinese nationalism.

I give it 6 hours tops before the admins start sanitising the board.

FaceDeer, to kbinMeta in Have you had any bad experiences with people on Kbin yet? Can we do better than Reddit culture?
@FaceDeer@kbin.social avatar

It's not "reddit culture", IMO, it's just human nature. Small groups are different from large groups and we've got large groups here now.

Sam_uk,
@Sam_uk@kbin.social avatar

@FaceDeer Do we? Or do we have lots of small groups in the same space?

It does seemthat Mastodon culture is different to Threadiverse culture. I'm OK with that, Mastodon is a little earnest for my tastes. It would be nice if we could keep the worst of Reddit out of here with robust moderation

FaceDeer,
@FaceDeer@kbin.social avatar

There were plenty of smaller subreddits with distinct "cultures" over on Reddit as well. As you say, moderation is key. Moderation is a lot easier for smaller communities.

Xeelee,
@Xeelee@kbin.social avatar

Reddit actively encouraged far right groups in the name of "engagement". Also, Huffman has never made a secret of his right wing leanings. Here we have a chance to keep out the fuckers by sane and consistent moderation. Also we don't have algorithms here that foment hate and divisiveness.

fartsinger, to kbinMeta in do you say it as kay-bin or k'bin?

Rhymes with gaben

@jaye@kbin.social avatar

Okay so I'm not crazy! Thought so

CarlsIII, to kbinMeta in do you say it as kay-bin or k'bin?

I say “Kay-bee”; the n is silent

HeadlessDude, to RedditMigration in NSFW in 3PAs is now dead
@HeadlessDude@kbin.social avatar

I uninstalled Relay yesterday. It was a good decade but time to move on.
I get that there are workarounds to patch apps and bypass NSFW which I could very easily avail myself of, but the more I consider it the more this whole drama has put me off Reddit as a platform, and really any centralised platforms. I could still use them but I just don't want to.. staying as an active user just feels like tacit endorsement of communities being decimated by a company that doesn't even pay the folks that actually keep them going.

BitingChaos, to RedditMigration in NSFW in 3PAs is now dead
@BitingChaos@lemmy.world avatar

NSFW is still loading in the Narwhal app, as far as I know.

Tashlan, to RedditMigration in NSFW in 3PAs is now dead
@Tashlan@kbin.social avatar

Nsfw is also dead on mobile web. And just a reminder that nsfw isn't just porn, it's also cannabis and vape content, and likely other content that touched "sensitive" subjects.

pgm_01,

NSFW seems to still load if you use old.reddit.com

L1C4U5E, to RedditMigration in The Apollo inspired wefwef.app is the best Lemmy app/webapp right now, and its not even close.
@L1C4U5E@lemmy.world avatar

I’d argue Memmy is pretty damn close! Wefwef is really nice and is probably closest to Apollo in terms of look and feel right now. Memmy already has some things over wefwef however such as multiple themes and push notifications. Honestly tho it’s all preferences and I’m just happy we have so many options in active development!

Yeah, Memmy is far and away my favorite way to browse Lemmy so far.

@Clairvoidance@kbin.social avatar

i'll admit, it would probably be healthier if you guys could move on now
like sure, keep posting about reddit stuff for the next month, there's probably relevant stuff to talk about, but there's no reason to obsess over spez this bad

as a sidenote, really hate how you need to tie either a google or facebook account to make a definition on this site

cheeseOnBread,

You're in the wrong community(magazine?) if you're tired of people talking about reddit.

Clairvoidance, (edited )
@Clairvoidance@kbin.social avatar

I specifically highlighted the spending effort on spez-hating

gk99,

Perhaps block the "RedditMigration" magazine if you're not interested in seeing it. It's not like this place was founded out of politeness.
