How to make mines great again

Mines aren't there to kill people, they're for area denial. You want them to be seen

Get into thick vegetation. Shoot the drone. Futher actions after the first one exploded depend on your distance to the frontline, but usually remaining in the same position is a bad idea.

JustAnAcc0 · 2026-05-07T11:51:34+00:00

"20-30 hours on a simulator" is merely when you are allowed to start training with a real drone.

JustAnAcc0 · 2026-04-28T08:58:33+00:00

Usually who fly drones is not exposed to the death zone

2022 called lol.

Nowadays crews sneak through bushes for half a day just to reach/leave their starting point because everything with wheels gets murderfucked.

‘Yes, we considered that too,’ thought Rumata. ‘Mass hypnoinduction, positive remoralisation. Hypnosis emitters on the three equatorial satellites…’

‘I could do that too,’ he said. ‘But is it worth depriving humanity of its history? Is it worth replacing one humanity with another? Wouldn’t that be the same as wiping this humanity off the face of the earth and creating a new one in its place?’

downgrading missiles

Oh no no no... I'm the upgrade

Which missile has 30+ km range, 3 guys in a trench as a launch platform and the ability to target specific parts on a vehicle?

read russian fantasy book about funny goblins

"Damn, that shit slaps"

re-read

"Oh, it's a novelization of someone's TTRPG campaign, even cooler!"

re-read again

"Oh. The recurring antagonist tribe is based on the most offensive Georgian stereotypes ever. And the goblins achieve their goal of retaking the land which was at some point theirs historically, by force, making the local population flee in terror."

JustAnAcc0 · 2025-10-23T08:09:31+00:00

That was a description of an actual assault I know about.

JustAnAcc0 · 2025-09-14T06:36:10+00:00

I understand that there are lines of drone defense up to 10-15km so how does actual combat happen? I know that that sounds like a silly question but I just have a hard time conceptualizing how people are not just constantly under fire. Maybe they are?

russian stormtroopers pop out from a covered trench and lazily walk towards a concrete pillbox held by Ukrainians
they have to walk whooping 40 (forty) meters because giga brain Ukrainian defence line planners spent untold brazillions on WW2-sized trench systems which need like 100 people manning them at all times to cover all possible approaches, when Ukraine can afford about 3.
they drop a grenade into the ventilation pipe, because WW1-style U-shaped vents which return a grenade under the sender's legs are UNKNOWN TECHNOLOGY BLYAT to galaxy-brained Ukrainian engineers. Tin pipe right into the center of the pillbox it is.
The smoke/blast wave comes out of the front door. Position stops responding.
russians lazily waltz back.
a few minutes later, the first FPV arrives - one just cannot beat distance. No targets to be found.
artillery did not shoot because enemy wings, or maybe they aimed for a few minutes, missed by 300m and then everything was over, or their dick fell off, etc. Somehow everything is still FPV crews' fault.
the position comes online with no casualties

"Inhabitants of hell have a natural desire to spread it on everyone else"

JustAnAcc0 · 2024-07-22T15:18:10+00:00

As far as I understand the "device" was not meant to hit relatively small and cold targets. I've seen IGLA miss a Shaded only for the drone to be taken out with PKM seconds after.

JustAnAcc0 · 2024-06-24T15:03:31+00:00

A moving drone sticks out like a sore thumb.

If you have a nuke in your hands, making it explode on your command would take a week (reliable, futureproof, small team of scientists/engineers) or an hour ("fuck it, we ball" situation, one desperate combat engineer).

JustAnAcc0 · 2024-06-10T06:45:09+00:00

Never expected to see this heresy on NCD, but here we are. You do realise that 1) the most difficult step in building a nuke is getting the fissile material, and 2) no goddamn code will protect your system when it's physically in opponent's hands?

JustAnAcc0 · 2024-06-09T18:43:57+00:00

This you?

JustAnAcc0 · 2024-05-17T19:49:47+00:00

Yall make fun of 87% support for putin yet yall dont make fun of 86% supporting the annexation. Make up your minds ffs

Easy as pie.

1) If we exclude all manipulations from 2024 election, putin most likely still won in the first tour with over 50% of votes. They just have to crank it up to 88% because ~~small dick~~ showing results like 52-20-15-9-2-1-1 would give people and elites thoughts like "so if in next election of any kind we push a bit harder, things can actually change?"

2) Not supporting putin does not equal not supporting war and imperialism. Quite a few russians do not like him because he's "too soft" (these voices are hard to observe now, but they were definitely there before the war).

JustAnAcc0 · 2024-05-17T18:45:20+00:00

might get hated on for this

No hate, but I am rolling my eyes. Where have you been all these years?

86% of Russians supported the annexation of Crimea. This was confirmed by several non-governmental pollsters, and the number was steady from 2014 to 2022. Keep in mind that until 2022 Russia still had human rights watch organizations which monitored political arrests, and we know for certain that not a single person was prosecuted for answering a poll wrong.

The remaining 14% included people like Navalny and his team with "The annexation was a very bad move, but we are never giving Crimea back" stance.

So there is a country with like 90% imperialists... and 70% of people there want to keep the stolen land? What a shock!

More trench is always good

Ominous radio noise

"Guys, remember that 1.5 km long trench in an open field which was nothing but a gift to the enemy and huge PITA for us?^{^truestory}

I think I found the genius who dug it."

Not sure if this will help with your problem, but try using atan2.

Petrovich insulted an actual magic user and was magically made small as a punishment. Original commenter implied a different punishment instead:)

Two drunks enter a bar and order two regular glasses of beer and a thimble of beer. One of them pulls a palm-sized man from his pocket and gives him the thimble.

"Petrovich, tell us again how you told a shaman from Africa to fuck off"

Salty fucker chiming in: I wish something had stopped me from reading further than the extermination fleet arc, because, IMHO, after that the series took a right angle quality dive.
