IKR? The F-35 wasn’t designed to suddenly transition to ground vehicle like the Osprey

Not with that attitude it isn't.

Every aircraft suddenly transitions to a ground vehicle if you use it wrong enough. Design is beside the point.

Yah there is a lot of nonsensical compression artifacts, and they’re of wildly varying scales.

Nah, the text makes sense and is not a garbled Zalgo mess.

[–] ICastFist@programming.dev 11 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

A lot of AI shit nowadays can make readable text.

Huh, interesting. I haven't see that yet. I guess it was just a matter of time.

[–] PapaStevesy@lemmy.world 4 points 2 weeks ago

Yeah, but the joke is

[–] rain_worl@lemmy.world 0 points 1 week ago

well it looks like there's an editing artifact near some text

Is the context not the jets 'fallen' in the ocean?

[–] ICastFist@programming.dev 1 points 2 weeks ago

That too, but also the USS Gerald Ford, which is named in the image, having toilet clogging problems

In the shitting position, with both hands engaged, while still wearing underwear?

[–] FreddiesLantern@leminal.space 7 points 2 weeks ago

You follow the example set by the president.

[–] ICastFist@programming.dev 2 points 2 weeks ago

To facilitate cleaning: wipe with the underwear, remove it, wash on the sea, wear it again

[–] X@piefed.world 13 points 2 weeks ago

Might wanna drop those skivvies (belted skivvies? That’s new.) in step 2, otherwise you can skip all this nonsense and just shit yourself.

What is the buddy supposed to hang on to?

[–] blackbrook@mander.xyz 25 points 2 weeks ago

His dignity.

[–] Ensign_Crab@lemmy.world 3 points 2 weeks ago

Hence the bit about always wearing a life vest.

they don't actually do#2, do they? 0.o

[–] _stranger_@lemmy.world 3 points 2 weeks ago

seamen are required to hold their shit for their entire deployment, it's a known fact. When they get home they release one giant shit.

Isn’t the F-35 picture a reference to an American aircraft carrier losing a plane in the ocean by banking too hard during a maneuver?

[–] ICastFist@programming.dev 6 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

I know there were two F18s that subgraded into submarines, one in April the other in May

[–] Lee@retrolemmy.com 3 points 2 weeks ago

When I first read this, I thought subgraded meant "fell into the water and sank" and "into subs" meant hit them/wrecked in to subs (that were near the ship at the time the aircraft sank). Insert spongebob (too much) time passing meme. Oh...

Sometimes I find Peter Explains the Joke funny. Sometimes I need it. I hope you've had a good day. This has been mine.

[–] Bloomcole@lemmy.world 1 points 2 weeks ago

that is the official explanation. But when it's 3 and in the Red Sea I suspect they could be lying again. Also one of their ships suddenly has to leave for 'urgent repairs'. All is well.

If you're the buddy, be sure to keep your mouth shut
