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.

My name is Commander Shepard and this is my favorite community on Lemmy

Wait wait wait... Reduce the size of the tank? That just makes it easier to blow up! Make it so large that even if another tank blows a hole through it, there's still a lot more tank left to kick ass! Example:

We could have lab grown organic automatons, controlled via LLMs embedded in a neuralink. They will be considered non-human and therefore may serve as emergency rations. At the discretion of the tank commander they can be detached and used for eg minefield discovery, targeting consensus, or as "meat shields" as it were.

We could. But the crews develop a bond with the gimp, and there's better overall cohesion and performance.

They fuck it afterwards, don’t they

Well if they can't eat it or shoot it...

[–] geophysicist@discuss.tchncs.de 10 points 6 months ago

Why afterwards

[–] MelastSB@sh.itjust.works 18 points 6 months ago

Richer or more populated countries would be advantaged as they can obtain pairs of dwarf gimps instead

[–] hemko@lemmy.dbzer0.com 17 points 6 months ago

Uncle Sam wants you to become gimp!

[–] CTDummy@lemm.ee 15 points 6 months ago

Why does this read as a more convoluted and less incense burning version of machine cultist.

[–] mrgreyeyes@feddit.nl 3 points 6 months ago

We need a gimp swarm. Men in latex suits swarming hostile tanks violating everything throughout their path.
