Most tanks have turrets, too, although there are exceptions like the Stridsvagn, which had its gun stuck in place but used hydraulic suspension to move it up or down. But despite the lack of a traditional turret, it still meets the “tank” definition because of its heavy armor, big gun, tank treads, and frankly…

One rule of thumb is that tanks have turrets and tank destroyers do not. But it is only a rule of thumb. The Swedish S Tank is a notable exception.**

The Great Suspender is a neat solution. It automatically suspends Chrome tabs given certain criteria, and you can whitelist or otherwise configure.

This.

Bonus points for Office Space reference.

Fair dinkum.

It’s the same on planes, because apparently reading a number and a letter on a piece of paper and matching those to a sign is really hard... ;)

I dislike high online pre-booking fees as much as anyone. They seem a bit vulgar.

How? I can still go to the movies on a whim and get a ticket. I just get my seat at the box office instead of when I go inside.

Oh god. The Regata... I had forgotten...

• Reserved seats. This is a given in many places around the world. Apparently in most US movie theaters it is not possible? It take a lot of the hassle out of things.
