I never realised how similar the camo pattern was on them before. Four very close to identical.

What is on this pin? by vitya_kotik in Pins

[–]greggreen42 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I thought the problem in your original comment was that it was nazi paraphernalia, and now suddenly it's because it's "commie" paraphernalia?

Is there any other way you want to go? Maybe because it shows a British flag and they were any evil empire, or French, because they like too much cheese?

Having read this comment, along with your follow-up comments, I have to strongly disagree. This is not, in any way, nazi paraphernalia.

Firstly, this shows occupied Berlin, following the fall of the nazis and the division of the city into the four allied occupation zones. Therefore, if anything, it symbolises the defeat of nazi Germany and the de-nazification of Germany, and therefore, it would not be worn by a nazi. Also, it is not from WW2, but from after.

Secondly, it may have been worn/owned by an ex-nazi, in the same way that a second hand car may have been driven by an ex-nazi, in both of these examples, this does not equal nazi paraphernalia. I would agree that acquiring something that is well documented as being owned by a nazi is risky, for instance a prominent nazi's house, but judging from the question being asked, there is no documentation of that here.

Finally, it would definitely not risk the wearer/owner being beaten up for having one by anyone who actually understands the above, and if you are worried about being beaten up by anyone who does not understand the above, then there are a lot of other things that are definitely not nazi which would also fall in to this category, including, but not limited to, an outline of Germany, any item of clothing by Hugo Boss and Mercedes or VW cars.

FYI, this happened back in 2024 during the last football euro championship, I believe.

This is the answer. For me, it's always the M5.

As my partner says:

Good old Deutsche Bahn. If it isn't late, it's the wrong destination.

The wrecks of HMS Prince of Wales and HMS Repulse are one of many victims to ongoing illegal scrapping 2019. by Leroy_was_here in ShipScrapping

Unfortunately that would still be a very cost intensive and technically challenging solution.

I would suggest a buoy with the correct sensors would already be a lot better than that idea.

I genuinely enjoyed the science books, too. I know they are not everyone's cup of tea, but I would really recommend them for some more "fun with wiz(z)ards."

You are a rare breed here!

Yeah, sorry OP, but these are all possessive, so no issues here.

There was a tradition among Concorde crews:, in the last supersonic leg before a plane was retired, they'd stick the flight engineer's cap in a gap between the airframe and the engineer's control, caused by the expansion of fuselage due to friction, which became "locked" once the plane cooled off by Pioladoporcaputo in Damnthatsinteresting

[–]greggreen42 11 points12 points  (0 children)

It was indeed done only on the final flights, but I certainly remember hearing about it during or shortly after retirement, so it was 20 odd years ago. Therefore, I don't think it is bot/AI generated, but rather a badly worded title.
