Besides the CMOS, my computer doesn't even have a battery. You should just keep it plugged in and use Chrome.

This is something that is understood by the left and the right. If influence sways, clout squats, taking up space for its own sake."

I wasn't sure if that graphic was necessary or not. Your public appreciation for it lets me know that I made the right choice.

Re: "Chrome is draining your battery faster"
I always use safari on my iPhone because I think it's more compatible with my other apps and Siri and whatnot. Should I switch to Chrome though?

Safari is made purely for Apple, whereas Chrome spreads itself provocatively over multiple operating systems - this can have it's caveats.washing machine wrote:Elaborate plz.
From my point of view, Safari has a much nicer interface. The only thing Chrome does better is Voice input.
Also even with Chrome installed, when you tap a link in an email - it will always default to open in Safari. Apple's little way of not fully letting you move away from Safari.
