A community for your defence shitposting needs

Rules

1. Be niceDo not make personal attacks against each other, call for violence against anyone, or intentionally antagonize people in the comment sections.

2. Explain incorrect defense articles and takes

If you want to post a non-credible take, it must be from a "credible" source (news article, politician, or military leader) and must have a comment laying out exactly why it's non-credible. Low-hanging fruit such as random Twitter and YouTube comments belong in the Matrix chat.

3. Content must be relevant

Posts must be about military hardware or international security/defense. This is not the page to fawn over Youtube personalities, simp over political leaders, or discuss other areas of international policy.

4. No racism / hatespeech

No slurs. No advocating for the killing of people or insulting them based on physical, religious, or ideological traits.

5. No politics

We don't care if you're Republican, Democrat, Socialist, Stalinist, Baathist, or some other hot mess. Leave it at the door. This applies to comments as well.

6. No seriousposting

We don't want your uncut war footage, fundraisers, credible news articles, or other such things. The world is already serious enough as it is.

7. No classified material

Classified ‘western’ information is off limits regardless of how "open source" and "easy to find" it is.

8. Source artwork

If you use somebody's art in your post or as your post, the OP must provide a direct link to the art's source in the comment section, or a good reason why this was not possible (such as the artist deleting their account). The source should be a place that the artist themselves uploaded the art. A booru is not a source. A watermark is not a source.

9. No low-effort posts

No egregiously low effort posts. E.g. screenshots, recent reposts, simple reaction & template memes, and images with the punchline in the title. Put these in weekly Matrix chat instead.

10. Don't get us banned

No brigading or harassing other communities. Do not post memes with a "haha people that I hate died… haha" punchline or violating the sh.itjust.works rules (below). This includes content illegal in Canada.

11. No misinformation

NCD exists to make fun of misinformation, not to spread it. Make outlandish claims, but if your take doesn’t show signs of satire or exaggeration it will be removed. Misleading content may result in a ban. Regardless of source, don’t post obvious propaganda or fake news. Double-check facts and don't be an idiot.

The sad part is that Musk actually believes this. AI + "a wizard will do it" defeats night and/or clouds, apparently.

And the curvature of the Earth.

Someone should just ask him to explain what BVR stands for, and what exactly visual range means.

And height. And speed. Maybe easier if there are zero planes, but not easy.

[–] [email protected] 20 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Technically finding all the planes is super-easy if there are zero planes.

[–] [email protected] 18 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Idk, if you tell AI to find a plane, it'll find a plane. Whether there is a plane is irrelevant.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 days ago

Oh wait, there's one! How could I miss it when it's got an RCS as big as a 747! In fact, it looks exactly like a civilian airliner. Huh.

Oh well, still a plane so missile goes bwshhhhhhhhhhh

Even this makes more sense:

Yep, we all know that the correct approach is to stick those tubes into your nostrils and see if you can smell jet exhaust in the distance.

[–] [email protected] 10 points 1 week ago

Ahhh the Yee old smell-o scope.

Nah, you'd scream into these so that you could echo-locate them.

Of course they are. Forcefully so, but still volunteers.

[–] [email protected] 14 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Just imagine the game of telephone you could get going for target tracking.

[–] [email protected] 11 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago)

Don't be silly. You can easily guide the anti air missile directly with simple voice comms, since it is piloted by another "volunteer".
