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.

Its a wireless camera door bell, called "ring". No idea if this is real but i assume you could set something like this up to be either motion detection activated(like a mine) or remote activated by looking at the camera feed.

it was just dumb switch on a tree, not a ring

[–] [email protected] 6 points 7 months ago

That makes it even more comical. Like a Tom and Jerry or Looney Tunes skit.

Apparently it was just a doorbell, if we take this X post for truth: https://twitter.com/yurapalyanytsia/status/1775888680215024124

If you need it remote activated you'd need wifi as well, which makes it kind of complicated to set up with lots of moving parts.

I can think of about 500 easier ways to do this. I can't imagine them doing it the complicated way, when the easy way works just as well, costs less, and is less prone to malfunctioning.

I didn't make the meme 🤷

What if the enemy doesn't come by in the 2 hours the battery would last streaming video this way?

[–] Psaldorn 7 points 7 months ago

It doesn't stream video full time, it detects motion and then let's you optionally turn on video. (Maybe that changes if you have zonal movement detection but it's probably locally processed)

[–] [email protected] 1 points 7 months ago (1 children)

Now you need to somehow power that. Also, how reliable is 3G around the front line, you think?

[–] Psaldorn 5 points 7 months ago

Russians deliberately don't attack telecom infrastructure now, because they did initially before discovering it was actually necessary for their own military comms.

Mobile routers can last 12 hours and handle a handful of connections, you can probably supplement them with a usb battery bank too.

Or if there is grid power within WiFi range it's not an issue. Or there may be more quiescent current models designed for IoT applications (like wind sensors in trees which may have poor signal coverage), I don't know

it was a dumb switch, not an amazon ring

[–] [email protected] 3 points 7 months ago

That makes more sense, and is actually way funnier.

What is hotspot? How does connection form?
