Hi everyone!
I just picked up a Chopper 1 splitting axe from eBay , I haven't received yet, how do I go about restoring it , I got it for my husbands birthday . How would you go about cleaning it up , it has rust , I'm looking into a handle . Would you paint it , if so what would you use, I'm going to have it sharpened, I'm hoping to get it done before his birthday and I want it as nice as I can get it.
 
Déjà vu????

People write bots that try to "drive engagement" with forum and social media accounts they create in bulk by doing things like this, with the goal of having the bots look like normal users. At a later date they can be used en mass to push specific messages. The last generation of these tend to repost old messages or say very vague things, the newer ones use ChatGPT. If you respond in the right way, you can sometimes get those to admit they're large language models.

It is obvious why this is done in political forums, and it happens in technical and security forums I'm involved with to prepare sock-puppet accounts for some hacking attacks (I work in internet infrastructure). I'm not sure why someone would do it here, it seems like a very slow tactic for scamming.
