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.

Legitimately looks like prison food. And you don't even get metal cutlery?

[–] BakerBagel@midwest.social 57 points 5 months ago (3 children)

Thats how pretty much all food made in giant quantities for 1500+ people is gonna look. Looks like every cafeteria meal i have ever eaten.

[–] zalgotext@sh.itjust.works 36 points 5 months ago (1 children)

Yeah honestly aside from the poor broccoli that got boiled to death, most of those plates look decent.

[–] tal@lemmy.today 2 points 5 months ago

I love overcooked broccoli.

Looks a hell of a lot better than what they served to us at school on base when my dad was in the military.

In the late 90's they used to have this baked spaghetti that was served in little squares. They were too hard to eat unless you poured water on it and let it soak for a bit. You could throw them across the room or bang them on the table and they wouldn't lose their shape.

I'm pretty sure the elementary and middle schools just reheated yesterday's left overs from the chow hall.

[–] lud@lemm.ee 1 points 5 months ago

Can you really compare military school food to school food though?

[–] theneverfox@pawb.social 7 points 5 months ago

It's institutional food - a restaurant can serve 1500+ people if they've prepared for it. For example, take a college cafeteria - the food usually isn't bad, even though it's made in massive quantities

Institutional food only comes into play when the institution takes the lowest bidder. Like most public school districts, prisons, and whenever else the state runs cafeterias directly

It's a small but very meaningful distinction

If prison food is as good as those photos make those meals look then I just figured out my retirement plan.

[–] papertowels@lemmy.one 3 points 5 months ago

Yeah I guess I just have low standards but that looks great...

[–] Pilferjinx@lemmy.world 1 points 5 months ago

Except for the slave labor, it does seem like a pretty good gig.

[–] zaph@sh.itjust.works 4 points 5 months ago (1 children)

Depends where you're at. It's been more than a decade but the cooks at my dfac in Afghanistan told us prisoners get higher grade beef.

[–] insufferableninja@lemdro.id 5 points 5 months ago (1 children)

bro, your mistake was eating the beef, instead of whatever the locals were making for themselves. there was always a long ass line for that shit, but it was always the best chow in the place.

[–] zaph@sh.itjust.works 4 points 5 months ago

Not enough time to stand in line. I was picking up chow for my whole unit and bringing it back so we didn't get to pick what we ate
