You're legit retarded as fuck. I'm not the OP but all the normies use Google Chrome because they like how fast it is. That's literally the only reason why people use Chrome.
I would use Firefox, but it lags like shit even on a PC with a 6950X, 128GB of RAM, and a 1.2TB Intel 750 PCI-E SSD.

Reposting from last thread:
First time Chinese phone buyer, making sure I'm doing this right. So I plan on buying a Redmi Note 3, this one specifically:
https://www.aliexpress.com/item/Official-Global-Version-Xiaomi-Redmi-Note-3-3i-pro-prime-special-Version-Smartphone-5-5-Inch/32717858702.html?spm=2114.13010308.0.0.aXjxRN
I'd like to use it over the Ting GSM network. Since that version of the Redmi Note 3 supports Band 4 for LTE, I assume it should work fine. Has anyone had experience with that network using a Xiaomi phone?
Is there anything I'm doing wrong, or not taking into acount? I'm just looking for any correction or reassurance before making the purchase. Thanks.

I wouldn't recommend it since its horribly outdated. Also mechanical keyboards have exploded in popularity and now there are options for pretty much everything.
Its much better to use the buyers template and list of your requirements then to go looking through pages and pages of different keyboards asking questions about each one you come across

I really don't give a fuck with what is up with you.
To be honest you simply need to just stop thinking that we need an update to what Windows OS you use and just fucking do what you do without broadcasting it to us.

So why do people still use Tor?
From my understanding, it's still fairly flawed in terms of security, the only way to make it practical is VPN -> Tor -> VPN.
Is there just not a better way to do it right now?
Or is there some other reason?

Your understanding is wrong.
Firstly, VPNs are as secure as wet paper. Seriously, even your mother has backdoors into those.
Secondly, TOR is pretty fucking secure.

I cloned my normal HD onto an SSD and tried to boot it.
Surprisingly, it didnt work and it asks for booting software.
I dont have the CD anyway, and the booting HD is from a laptop but because I changed to a desktop doesnt recognize anything and assumes its illegal. (this might be irrelevant.)
anyway how do I get it to boot from the SSD? Or is it easier to just buy a new OS and install that on the unobootable disk?
When looking at disk management I see that my main disk gets split in 2 parts, the OS and the rest, while my SSD is just one part.
Sorry for making a thread about it, but I tried looking on google and all I find is about windows 10 and I use 7.
Not only that but generally all the threads have dumb replies like "did you correctly clone it" and shit like that
