The Forever War
(lemmy.world)
The Ocean is clearly planning an invasion using the Global Warming tactic, let's see how Netherlands combats this.
We just finished upgrading the Afsluitdijk to new height and width, and the delta works had an upgrade a couple of years ago.
The only flooding that ever happens is when the enemy launches an unexpected paradrop behind our lines.
the scheme remains a thought experiment ... too "extreme" to be pursued.
Challenge accepted.
Somebody call Vinci and Bechtel! We're building some damn dams!
The crazy thing is that the Dutch (or the people who lived in what is now the Low Countries) were winning that war pretty handily until like eight thousand years ago. Then they lost Doggerland to the sea.
Their descendants remember, though. The Dutch will rise again.
Make dogger land again.
Suck it, Caligula!
He was humanity's greatest champion, cut down in his prime.
Yeah, they've been slowly gaining ground, but the North Sea's got things in the works to really sink thsm.
We shall liberate Doggerland!
Meanwhile they're looking at the Northern European Enclosure Dam, that would completely dam the North Sea. The battle continues.
I just read about that. Seems that project is more like a way to say look how ridiculous this is we need to stop climate change.
Deus mare, Friso litora fecit. – God made the sea, the Frisian the shores.
Which is more irritating to the owners of the North Sea right now: The North Sea or Russian destroyers?

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.
