They were getting it ready for an upcoming airshow. There's another Northrop flying wing of not quite exactly the same model at the smithsonian, but this one was the only one of this particular model. Until now, it had been kept functional and flying.
Especially when they were too unstable to fly with 1940's technology.

I hope @GasBandit can confirm for me that there's a special hell for people that put car horns or sirens in radio commercials

I hope there is, too. I have lambasted more than one jock for using such. I don't know if sirens and horns are technically illegal, but if you use actual "Emergency Broadcast" noises in your commercial, the FCC will actually sit up and take notice.
Huh. So does it still count as a Photoshop Fail if the fail is forgetting to use photoshop?
Is there something like too much vacations? There's 4 days left and I would like to go back to work. For the first time in my life I took my full 30 days of vacations. I always took 1 or 2 weeks max. There was always work to do, but after the last 3 years, I was tired. I feel good now, but I'm afraid that feeling will not last after I return to work.
Yes.
For the first several years at my job, I couldn't take vacations at all. Even when I'd schedule 40 hours of vacation, I'd end up working 20-35 hours of it. So, finally, once I built the department up enough that I could actually go on vacation, I took the entire month of December off, the last couple of years.
This year, the company has updated their vacation policy to only allow 2 weeks at a time.
I drove through Alto TX last week. I was on my way to see Mom for Easter. A week earlier it was struck by tornadoes. Along the highway I was traveling there were downed trees lining both sides of the road for a stretch of 9 miles. It was like driving through a place that was carpet bombed.
There is also a state park at the start of that destruction (Caddo Mounds.) It had a new HQ and a large grass house that were built within the last 7 years. Both total losses.

At breakfast Noah was talking about how fun text-to-voice can be to play around with. He put in LOLOLOLOL which came out sounding like the Trololo song. So Aussie had to play the video for them.
Lily then said the funniest thing she has ever come out with - "What if they replaced the Wilhelm scream with the guy singing trololo?"
Can anyone make this a reality? Because, judging from how much the four of us laughed about it, I think you'd be internet famous!

Do you mean the song with screams instead of the trololos, or do you mean the movie scenes with trololos instead of the scream?
A Metric tonne is a kilogram times one-thousand.
A kilogram is a unit of mass, not force.
The metric unit of force is a Newton. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Newton_(unit)
Come at me bro.
(And he knows where I live, he's been to my place multiple times, so this isn't an empty taunt! Though I know where he lives too, and the same applies)
The second.
See, this is why spy movies with super advanced spy stuff are silly. It's part of the fire code that the fire department be able to access stuff normal people can not, such as elevator controls. To do this they have a special key that only the fire department may own. But what if little Johnny accidentally has that key, well you can't accidentally have that key because the manufacturer's specifications are included in the published fire code.
I got those for awhile too but somewhere from africa. Annoying as hell.

I can finally post this today
