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.

Quantum Tunneling Neutron Cluster Railgun capable of assassinating a target from the opposite side of the earth at slightly less than the speed of light.

Main problem is nobody made optics that can see to the opposite side of the planet. Personally, I think we should just take the direct route and fire it through the planet but the egghead sciency types keep complaining about "destabilizing the earths crust". Whatever that means.

That's actually not a bad downside, it still pierces literally any armor if you can guess the distance and point it at the target by sight. I'll take 5,000 for $6.4 Million each, send the invoice to Congress.

Imagine taking shots in the dark at the Kremlin and exploding random furniture and windows. Putin: "That's the third time this week, we have to move offices around again."

It's the battleship approach to assassinate. B, 5 couch explodes! E, 7 lamp detonate! G, 3 oh no, you sunk my dictator!

Has the power requirement of the sun though.

In the palm of my hand?

[–] mindbleach@sh.itjust.works 5 points 7 months ago

Good luck aiming.

Aliens already have that technology, and they're determined to prevent any other species from developing it. They zap your prototype and research facility from orbit.
