Maybe a Iran - Israel war is going to break out in the coming hours, but most turkish defence enthusiasts just want to know one thing right now:
When will KAAN fly the second time?

true. and it's an unknown publication to me. that's why I didn't share it on KAAN section.

This quote was interesting though:

"The processing of the data received during the first flight was completed and the necessary software updates were completed."

If true, and there's no other issue with the plane, then the second flight should be imminent.

Another day in Australia.

After a white guy went on a stabbing rampage.

Our Muslims had to show to the world that we will not be beaten in the stabbing race.

Whats interesting if it wasnt for the police the 16 year old stabber was going to be lynched by Assyrians.

Does anyone around here uses reddit? I have been there for few months and it feels like it is killing my brain cells everytime I am there. First I thought I needed to adapt and adjust myself with absolute free speech, culturally speaking. But now I feel like it is just too toxic and idiotic. Most of the redditors talks like either kids with doesn't live a real life or people with room-temperature-IQ. When it comes to outside world, most of them are tremendously ignorants yet so full of themselves. They seems to think themselves as some kind of intellectuals while making dumbest comments. Also, I thought given it was mostly left leaning it would be a tolerant place, but it seems like in general they are very much intolerant and dissimisive of anything non-western. Has Reddit always been like this?

You can never have a proper conversation on reddit.

R/Turkey and R/Europe are one the most toxic pages I have ever been too.

I left Quora too. They seem to be pretty fine in tolerating people posting anti Turkish sentiment and Islamophobia.

Reddit inevitably devolved into a series of echo chambers. The entire site is a giant confirmation bias machine with its flawed upvote/downvote system. The biggest subreddits which should in theory have more debate are aggressively moderated and astroturfed into being cesspits of misinformation and propaganda.

The only good thing about is is niche hobby subreddits like woodworking, W40k, Elder Scrolls etc.

R/Europe constantly bitches and whines about Turks and Turkiye.

They treat us like the ultimate evil because Muh Evil Turks conquered Istanbul.

Somehow having an empire and ruling over people is only acceptable when Europeans or the white man does it but somehow to them the Turks are subhumans for doing the very exact thing.

Yes, Reddit has always been like this. It's only good when seeking advice for technical things or reviews on products. I'd say its gotten worse recently due to a rift between the company and moderators, a lot of major subreddits are turning into locked, private echo chambers. With all this said, I think Twitter is just as bad now, even worse actually.

When he first took over it pretty good. Now it's just a wasteland full of the bots, bad advice, misinformation and propaganda.

That said, TikTok and now Instagram are pretty bad too. Governments need to crack down on social media algorithms. I can see a wave of extremists being fuelled by a constant steam of propaganda which targets them through the algorithm.

Youtube has also been awful. Ian Macculm of forgotten weapons said his planning on phasing himself out of youtube.

I see forgotten weapons more like a history channel of weapons.

Youtube is full of clickbait and reaction bullshit videos.
