Would be nice if all militant preppers get rid of their electronic devices like this
At least one extremist echo chamber fewer.
I had an roommate do that with an xbox360 once
That must have looked funny.
They going to tear open the battery while they are at it? It’s not like there’s going to be a small lump labeled “RDX” with wires sticking out of it.
While they’re at it, why not incorporate the explosive into the body of the device? Has no one else seen Up in Smoke?
You could get a new battery from a known good source (or light a couple on fire to make sure they're not explosive). It should be relatively easy to check the rest of the components for anything near a dangerous amount of explosive, and the body can be replaced with a custom one and/or subjected to the fire test.
Even a fire test may not produce accurate results (see C4). Better to not have distinct supply lines from the civilian population you're already hiding in.
protip: if you're not connected to a terrorist group targeting israel, you've got nothing to worry about
It's interesting who we call terrorists and who we don't. If an Arab nation or organization had done this it would have been called a terrorist attack. Israel does it and people defend it.
Terrorist is a meaningless scare word for "people we don't like".
'Terrorist' is a shorthand for 'Terrorist we don't like'
Ok, but this is NCD. Would you like a flute of Trader Joe's finest champagne? It's not very good, but it's free.
Or if you are a child who happens to be near one maybe you just die anyway
We read on the news 'Hezbollah pagers' and assume that this was a targeted attack. But are we sure? What does it even mean? Who and how got those devices?
Hezbollah handed out these pagers to their combatants a few days before they exploded. Some were even still in their packaging.
I don’t know why you think this will be an isolated event, a civilian you probably don’t have anything to worry about in the same way you don’t need to worry about getting poisoned or shot but this is now an attack method governments will take advantage of.
would RDX increase or decrease baofeng interference? only one way to find out
Wait, what frequency sets off the....
BOOM
BAOFENG transmits on all frequencies, it's just louder on the ones they intend
Don't forget to check the tin foil hats too!
A community for your defence shitposting needs
Rules
1. Be nice
Do 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.
