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.

When you literally add "if you commit real life treason, we will ban you from our videogame forums" and it still doesn't work.

No force is stronger than the autistic urge to correct something that is wrong in the special area of interest.

It's practically a weekly occurrence at this point.

[–] sugar_in_your_tea@sh.itjust.works 25 points 5 months ago (1 children)

Surely we can do better. Daily?

If I had a nickel every time someone posted classified documents in the WarThunder forums I would have ~~2~~ ~~3~~ Enough.

[–] Kolanaki@yiffit.net 88 points 5 months ago (2 children)

Disagreeing with the moderators is also against the rules.

At least they admit it.

[–] Thorry84@feddit.nl 93 points 5 months ago

They didn't say disagreeing with moderators, they said disagreeing with moderation.

I read that as: You can disagree with how a mod applies the rules and challenge that. You can't disagree with the rules themselves, the rules are the rules, take it or leave it.

And personally I think complying with NATO export restrictions seems like a good rule.

[–] hate2bme@lemmy.world 4 points 5 months ago

Yeah, thats crazy to me.

[–] rustyfish@lemmy.world 55 points 5 months ago (2 children)

All of this has happened before, and it will happen again.

[–] RizzRustbolt@lemmy.world 14 points 5 months ago (1 children)

What's next in the rotation? Helicopters?

[–] topherclay@lemmy.world 14 points 5 months ago (1 children)
[–] untorquer@lemmy.world 9 points 5 months ago (1 children)

Naval is on the horizon.

Planes will go around again.

[–] topherclay@lemmy.world 7 points 5 months ago (1 children)

Firearms will get a shot after that.

[–] ICastFist@programming.dev 4 points 5 months ago

Missile launchers would be a blast

[–] Cethin@lemmy.zip 13 points 5 months ago

So say we all!

[–] DudeImMacGyver@sh.itjust.works 31 points 5 months ago

Opsec? What's that?

[–] einfach_orangensaft@sh.itjust.works 25 points 5 months ago (1 children)

I always wonder if those leaks lead to wikipedia improvements on the given topics somewhere down the line

[–] Maggoty@lemmy.world 7 points 5 months ago (1 children)

Wiki requires citation. It's pretty easy for a government to have someone go in there and revert it for being uncited.

At what point is information considered public, once it is public or once its declassified?

What's the current record for days since leak?

[–] copd@lemmy.world 26 points 5 months ago (1 children)
[–] dependencyinjection@discuss.tchncs.de 15 points 5 months ago (2 children)

For real?

I know nothing of this game, except I’ve heard at least three instances where this happened and it always makes me chuckle.

[–] pressanykeynow@lemmy.world 12 points 5 months ago

There were at least 14 according to Wikipedia.

For real?

... Checks community name ... Yeah, I'll buy it.

[–] feedum_sneedson@lemmy.world 16 points 5 months ago

I met a Eurofighter Typhoon pilot once. Having made the Airfix model as a child, I was suitably impressed.

[–] erin@social.sidh.bzh 15 points 5 months ago (5 children)

And yet in that same timeline Okami 2 has been announced 18 years after the release of the first game so as long France postpone its warning shot until the game release and I can finish it, I'm ok with that ^^

[–] NakariLexfortaine@lemm.ee 5 points 5 months ago (1 children)

Oh shit, Okami 2 is finally happening‽

Can we get an rerelease of Okamiden to go alongside, please? Have all 3 in one place?

[–] erin@social.sidh.bzh 5 points 5 months ago

nope, no okamiden since Kamiya is returning as Game Director and he consider Okamiden as a Capcom treason. Okami 2 is officially the direct sequel to Okami replacing Okamiden in the timeline

I wonder if War Thunder forums will be one of the things Russia will keep allowing connections to (they're planning to get off the wider 'net), since it's such a treasure trove for classified info on other countries' arsenals.

[–] Bronzebeard@lemm.ee 12 points 5 months ago

Disconnecting the country from it doesn't mean their government won't have access...

[–] doktormerlin@feddit.org 8 points 5 months ago

Simply put: no. It doesn't make any sense.

Russia as a whole will not be cut from the internet. North Korea isn't cut from the internet. The public is. And the public does not need this information
