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.

"Théoden no longer recognizes friend from foe. Not even his own kin. Saruman has poisoned the mind of the king and claimed lordship over this land. My company are those loyal to Rohan. And for that, we are banished." - Èomer, The Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers

For those doing the maths at home:

An F35 who obligingly flies top-towards-you (not exactly something you can do, but hey, maybe they're turning) is all of 10m tall.

An AIM-120C can very comfortably hit a target at 100km.

At that range, the F-35 takes up 26 arcseconds, or 0.007 degrees. That's roughly about the size of this period, at a distance of 3 meters away.

Good luck spotting that in a sky of roughly the same colour, full of other objects.

Magnifying glass makes things bigger, checkmate! 🔍🔍

Pffffffff

I can see that bright white dot against the dark mode background on my maximum brightness screen with ease! Therefore your argument is invalid!

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 hour ago

with a big enough screen i bet an AI camera could see it too

[–] [email protected] 59 points 3 hours ago (1 children)

If a fighter jet is within visual range of a camera, it's already too late. And that's if there aren't any clouds.

[–] [email protected] 21 points 2 hours ago

your not thinking like a musk, not if the government pays the subscription and contract for his early warning camera drone balloon swarm thing or something something they could run on ketamine or something.

Sir, our air defence is down!

Is it hackers?

No sir, it's cloudy.

Guy whose cars run into stopped fire trucks thinks he’s an expert on computer vision.

[–] [email protected] 25 points 2 hours ago (1 children)

But was it a "stealthy" fire truck??

[–] [email protected] 11 points 2 hours ago

Yes, but the car only had enough low-light cameras but not enough rudimentary AI

[–] [email protected] 45 points 3 hours ago

Someone died because one of those cars thought the broadside of a white semi trailer was the sky and drove under it

That fucker really thinks he's so smart when all he does is constantly demonstrate what an idiot he is.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 43 minutes ago

His rise really is symbolic of the rot that has taken hold of our society. Truly, our most degenerate moron has risen to the top of the shit pile.

Elon Musk is an idiot

[–] [email protected] 47 points 3 hours ago (2 children)

someone tell ellen about beyond visual range

Watch as he dances under every low bar

[–] [email protected] 4 points 2 hours ago

Easy. Just build a giant ball of telescopes and ban water

Just use multiple nuclear power plants to power an AI that constantly scans the sky.

Are we sure he's not an NCD poster?

Edit to add - Musk unlocked the achievement, personal enemy of the DoD and entire defense industry. I'm getting popcorn for this.

Looks like being rich and surrounding yourself with yes-people is the #1 cause of sitting confidently at the top of the Dunning-Krueger curve.

[–] [email protected] 28 points 3 hours ago (2 children)

Also... Fighters are fast, the point is you should fire the missile before you see it.

[–] [email protected] 21 points 2 hours ago (1 children)

The f-35 is built for engagements outside the horizon, like, the target is blocked by the curvature of the earth.

Light sensitive cameras and rudimentary AI..

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 hour ago* (last edited 1 hour ago) (1 children)

Pssh, all you need is a gravity lens to bend the light, problem solved!

[–] [email protected] 1 points 51 minutes ago* (last edited 50 minutes ago)

So we use a black hole to bend space time and look into the past where it isn't. We know where it isn't in the past.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 hour ago

but have you considered that if i can’t see it then it doesn’t exist?

Dude’s brain is shit design and fucking sucks, actually

[–] [email protected] 15 points 3 hours ago (1 children)

MUH AY-EI

Did he replace his brain with AI already? Because it sure fucking looks like it.

[–] [email protected] 12 points 3 hours ago (1 children)

He has always been this stupid.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 hour ago

His greatest achievement has been buying contracts that state he has invented things that he didn't invent.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 3 hours ago

What a fucking loser

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 hours ago

Well if we’re on shitting on his character. This man had the opportunity to change the approach to implementing neuralink tech to make it less destructive but instead chose to continue with their direction. A direct competitor has since proven that there was no need to be so invasive.
