It has nothing to do with *your* computer hardware or software. There is [Web Applications][2] but your problem isn't really about *using* a web application either, it is about the internals of a website, how it works and what it does. The problem is that any given site can work in any way from outright copying websites to simply buffering requests and any combination in-between and it is impossible to say, broadly speaking, that they all do one or another method or haven't come up with a new way of working. The only people who know how their site works is the people who made it. There isn't always a Stack Exchange site where a question fits. Sometimes it just doesn't fit any sites on the network at all and we have never claimed to be able to have sites for every single field of human expertise.
