Been using Firefox for 80%+ of my use cases, but whenever I need to make a payment online, it is easier to just use Chrome which stores and syncs payment methods. And I am amazed h…

It is hard to keep your vision limited on the interiors of a car when driving a convertible, because no roof. Looking outside gives your vision sensory alignment with the orientati…
