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.

Over fishing, pollution and changing climate have rendered strömming, the fish used to make surströmming, increasingly rare. This year it's been selling for hundreds of euros per can in some places. Gunpowder would be the cheaper option

Indeed, Strömming / Hering has become rare. However, for warfare, Surströmming could also be replaced by some fermented organic waste to achieve he same effect.

Why wont we go back to throwing dead cows over the sieged city walls. Overengineering for problems solved thousand years ago.

Strömming is the champagne of herring its only called strömming if its from the botnian bay otherwise its sill

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

TIL the difference between sill and strömming.

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

Its a shame all other fish apart from strömming smell just incredible.

By the way, watch out for tankies from hexbear moving forward. They just federated with sjw, and I wouldn't be surprised if they gravitated towards ncd.

Humanitarian aid or war crime? That's for the Hague to decide.

[–] [email protected] 14 points 1 year ago

asymmetric humanitarian aid

[–] [email protected] 7 points 1 year ago

People like to bitch and moan about escalating the war, but if Ukraine hit Moscow with a few of these missiles, they would be nuked the same hour.

Here's a video of some danish dudes trying to eat it, for those who are confused: https://youtu.be/kADGFdE00KY?feature=shared

@corq
I used too drive MLRS in the US army for five years. All we shot was cluster munitions.
Get used too seeing one legged Ukrainian kids on TV.
