Huh? You can't hammer a nail to hang a picture at all into a concrete wall. And it's pretty shitty with masonry too.

Yeah, you drill a hole, and put one of those plastic achoors inside, and screw a scew in, and hand a photo on the screw.

Our old-school socialist apartment buildings even have internal walls built out of reinforced concrete... drilling a whole to pull an ethernet cable through, means hoping for luck not to hit rebar

You can't use a stud finder?

These don't work for stuff deep inside walls.

Actually they make variants of stud finders to locate rebar in foundations and walls. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E8Qn3Eu87h4

That isn't nailing. You can also drill for anchors in drywall and it doesn't require a hammer drill.
