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. Random twitter and YouTube comments belong in the Low Hanging Fruit thread.

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 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. These include Social media screenshots with a title punchline / no punchline, recent (after the start of the Ukraine War) reposts, simple reaction & template memes, and images with the punchline in the title. Put these in weekly Low effort thread 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.

a radio equipped american buoy off the coast of north korea picked up an unencrypted north korean rocket abort signal

meaning us can abort north korean rockets

Rockets are the only thing we can still abort

[–] zerosignal@lemmy.world 21 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Pretty soon we will have to raise those rockets to adulthood whether we like it or not

The issue is that explosions are cool, and it would be unethical to abort something that cool, so the question then becomes: when does the explosion start?

Some say it begins at the moment of detonation, while idiots who don't understand what explosions are insist it starts the moment the rocket is assembled at the factory

I’d say it is equally moronic to disclose that they aren’t encrypted 🤦‍♂️

[–] BigDanishGuy@sh.itjust.works 29 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

Maybe the CIA (or whatever three letter agency is in charge of that OP) is tired of messing with the abort signal and want to try taking out the rockets in flight?

Or maybe, this being the internet it's all false but now the NK is looking for bouys double time
