once again, is the harm-reduction candidate, somehow

To be fair, this map isn’t actually properly showing the topography of the other continents - there’s a little bit of mountains drawn in Europe, but much less detailed, and Anatolia and Iran have nothing drawn, when both regions are very mountainous. It’s purely focused on Africa

We’re a site of barely a thousand users, and I remember it used to be a lot less, more like 500-600 daily, I assume after federation there was some growth. And of course only a small portion of those users post regularly, which is pretty normal for social-media-esque websites.

So there’s just too many over-specialized comms, that the userbase isn’t really large enough to support. Like, we probably don’t need to have /c/games, /c/ttrpg, /c/tabletop & /c/gamedev as all separate things.

No, I think these were actually Australian - made for the civilian market (before the gun bans). I assume the idea was to use an existing design (Lee-Enfields were of course used by the other Commonwealth countries too, not just Britain) to make a simple and cheap carbine, and chamber it in 7.62x39 since it’s a pretty widely-available cartridge.

It’s Jules’ gun, so the “say WHAT again” one. Vincent has a proper M1911A1 (although also with a nickel finish & pearl grips, so it looks very similar)

Apparently that’s just the name of the company, which rather than having anything to do with biological research, is actually “the swimming pool and spa water care division of Lawrenceville, Georgia-based KIK Consumer Products” (which I guess explains the chlorine).

Now, why the hell would you name your swimming pool sanitation company “BioLab” is beyond me, like genuinely who thought that one up.
