And here I thought the 70s were a wild time:

Aerial Artillery Design Study - Two Externally-Mounted XM204 Howitzers on a CH-47C Helicopter

Abstract:
Design arrangement and mounting approaches, weight estimates, balance calculations, stress analyses, and helicopter performance predictions of an aerial artillery system utilizing two externally-mounted 105mm XM204 soft recoil howitzers on a CH-47C Chinook helicopter are presented. This design provides for all the firing modes and operational capabilities required by the Weapons Command, including the ability to offload one howitzer when the helicopter is hovering. The study includes an analysis of the structural integration of the weapons and aircraft including muzzle blast effects and airframe dynamic responses. A minimum adequate fire control system for air-to-ground firing and typical ground artillery fire control equipment was included.

That’s a pretty boss move, I don’t know if I’d be that quick thinking

Omen, Excorcist, Nightmare on Elm St, Jason, Cujo, Friday the 13th - I was a very free range kid. The one that really sticks out is (IIRC) The Amityville Horror. There is a scene with these red glowing eyes down a dark hallway…the adult in me knows it was probably just some guy with two flashlights, but it still raises the hairs on my arms thinking about it

If you’re a chili purist, I’d recommend not ordering chili in Cincinnati. Way back when, some Greek guy wanted to sell Greek meat sauce to a bunch of Germans, but he wasn’t gaining any traction - because what sausage loving German wants Greek meat water.

He then had the bright idea of renaming it ‘chili,’ and an unholy abomination was concieved that day, it threatened to plunge all of existence into the void…actually if you’ve ever had italian (the tomato based) meat sauce on spaghetti, it’s kinda like that, just with a handful of cinnamon and neon yellow shredded cheese…because, why not. Folks in Cincinnati seem to like it though, so much so they sell it in cans in the grocery stores

I too loose it when people can’t get the difference, it’s like c’mon, you can’t be so lose with your words

Sorry, couldn’t help myself 😁

Don’t worry, it finally gets renamed in 2630

I see you woke up and chose violence. Dueling pistols at dawn it is then

For me, it’s actually much better for file name sorting - and just about everything else. It numerically orders items in a logical manner allowing for batch processing of large sets of data using wildcards or regex, but I understand that it may not fit everyone’s usecase…which is why, it seems everyday, there’s someone introducing a new date format

For me it’s YYYY-MM-DD https://www.iso.org/iso-8601-date-and-time-format.html

Also, there is a special place for those people who keep making up new timestamps

Probably something like this (forgive the red circle, not my edit)

Looks as though it can be stowed in the twin landing gear looking doors

Thanks for the tl;dr! These news sites really need to calm down

TiL. I’m going to have to play around with this, thank you!

I’ve been using a pair of scissors to cut my spagetti, a knife would probably be way easier to clean. Thanks for the tip, I’ll let everyone know how it goes!

A small spider bite, which gives me the ability to punch someone in the mouth through their TV or computer screen…It has always been one of my ideas for an online business

Not me, but I recall a story from a while back. ISP tech answers call from an irate customer who isn’t able to get online. After basic troubleshooting, the tech advises the customer to power cycle the cable modem and router…the customer scoffs, how can I do that when my power is out? 😂

Looks like they’re available on eBay and Walmart (via a 3rd party seller)

In this country, you gotta get the pickup truck first. Then when you get the pickup, you get the tornado. Then when you get the tornado, then you get the fun.

TIL - Light Amplification by Stimulated Emission of Radiation

That reminds me, so is SCUBA, RADAR and MODEM…I miss the old History Channel shows, especially Modern Marvels

SCUBA: Self-Contained Underwater Breathing Apparatus (Blew my mind for some reason when I learned that)
RADAR: Radio Detection and Ranging (I’ve watched alot of WWII documentaries)
MODEM: Modulation Demodulation (I’ve worked in tech)
