Weapons? What do you own?


Recommended Posts

A staff & a set of nunchuks, and the skill to use both. I'm a black belt in Tang Soo Do.

/deepbow Ahhh Korean Karate...well done!

The vast majority of those are for hunting or target, even the large bore pistols which are used for deer, bear, pigs etc.

Yeah, sure they are. What? You find yourself needing to fight off waves of bear and pigs with your Rambo-wannabe lineup? AR-15?

I call BS btw. Pics or it didn't happen :)

We have bear and deer season every year here in the north with gun, bow and primitive weapon seasons, and pigs are considered feral and shoot on sight. All are edible, and we do.

mmm nom nom nom fresh wild pig, very nice :D

I bet you have some awesome BBQ/cook outs

I think that pretty much covers what's in the house.

Looks like some of you are ready for a zombie infestation.

I own a few kitchen knives, a decorative short sword, a few tennis rackets and a chihuahua. I have another dog (lhasa apso mix) but he's super friendly so he's not a good guard dog.

My dog Spike had to be put down about 18 months ago :(

110 lb rottweiler & ridgeback mix. Smart, loved family, wouldn't let my grandkids go home :) but intrudrers or threatening people beware - he could go junkyard in a heartbeat.

Need to start looking for a new big dog soon..

No guns or exotic weapons, but I do collect swords and other bladed weapons.....only have about 6-8 so far but I have some swords and some knifes/dagger-like weapons.

My biggest one is about 4ft long counting both the hilt and blade, it weighs about 8 pounds, but its currently not sharpened. Then I have some other smaller swords that are quite sharp, along with some other small weapons (daggers and similar length weapons) that are sharpened as well.

No skill in using them properly (may change that once I get a job and some time), but enough knowledge and weaponry to at least attempt to defend myself at home if I have to.

    • So they saved ton of money by using AI resulting in loss of crap load of money in recalls and expenses. Bravo. Management needs to be replaced by AI, not engineers.
    • Ditto that, I have a few Alexa devices around the house to control lighting and such for a disabled person I live with, and it shows a *lot* of ads on the display. The dots are simple but effective. A lot cheaper too.
    • Go for a Echo Dot or Pop instead. These Echo shows just advertise to you.

NetSpeedTray v1.3.3: The Updater Fix A stabilization release that repairs a critical regression in v1.3.2: the app shipped without OpenSSL, which silently broke every HTTPS request — including the built-in update checker (the "Could not check for updates" error many of you hit). This release restores it, hardens the build so it can't happen again, and fixes a startup crash plus four other reported bugs. Changes: Fixed update checking — Resolved a critical issue that prevented the app from checking for updates ("Could not check for updates"). Fixed startup crash with Auto-Cycling — The app no longer crashes on launch after enabling Cycle display mode. Fixed incorrect network speeds on 10GbE adapters — Multi-gigabit network cards now display speeds correctly instead of being stuck at 0. Improved color coding — Default color is shown when idle, and color/threshold changes now apply immediately without restarting. Fullscreen visibility fix — The widget now correctly stays visible over fullscreen apps when Keep Visible is enabled. Improved AMD Ryzen temperature detection — More reliable CPU temperature monitoring for Ryzen processors. Cleaner upgrades — Installer now removes outdated application files during upgrades, preventing DLL/version conflicts while preserving user settings. Improved stability — Fixed potential DLL loading issues by excluding critical OpenSSL and NumPy components from UPX compression. Better settings window — Scrollbars removed and layout improved for a cleaner experience. Localization improvements — Updated translations and completed missing UI text across all supported languages. More reliable releases — Added regression tests covering recent critical fixes, bringing the test suite to 196 passing tests.
