The social network has, by this point, become one of the primary means by which we communicate...

While at home, I’ve taken to plugging in my laptop to my TV via an HDMI jack to use the latter as a secondary monitor for the former. Unfortunately, in doing so, I’ve noticed a rather irritating bug – one which manifests if I plug my system in when I’ve got Chrome open.
