I can see that mentioning race, in a reply to commit about motive was wrong. I was speaking to coverage of crime through the prism of race rather than motive. I did not intend link motive to race but I can see that it is logical interpretation but was not my intention. Apologies.

Hands up. My comment was to "coverage" of crimes though the prism of race rather than to your comment which is directly related to the lack of reporting of motive of the crime. I see that it was not appropriate. Apologies.

Inter-race crimes = more coverage = more investigative work as to motive

Maybe the reason that the news outlets are not chasing the reason for this crime is because of the race or religion of the man in question. Intra-race crimes get less clicks therefore less coverage.

A white male committing a crime drives less clicks. If a Muslim is in custody, we would be seeing more media coverage. If it's white male in custody less coverage. Media cares about race/religion, I do not.

My guess is the suspect in custody is a white (likely Christian) male.

I'm Irish. Irish people loved to holiday in the States. Now, I hear more and more stories from work colleagues, friends and family where holidays to US are cancelled or reconsidered as ** a direct result** of Trump policies.

Bigger worries now for oridary US citizens who happen use the same mode transport as those so called "evil" immigrants that keep their economy alive. Oh America, what have you done.

Watch Til Kingdom Come. full doc is on youtude.

In 2017, when Trump's America abandoned the 2 state solution and went in full throated support of Israel with recognisation of Jerusalem, it was the spark that lead to this whole situation. Now that Trump is back in power, his Christian fundamentalist backers are sitting back and awaiting their rapture. Fucking crazy shit.

ZeroZeroZero is a great crime mini series about the drugs trade. Stellar cast.

 

Since RD made some changes to its API, lots of addons have stopped working with RD. So I have been searching for ones that are working now. I checked out the kodifitzwell repo and found that the Infinity addon hosted there is working.

The other addons that I have found that work are:

  • Fen light
  • Otaku

Might try crew next.

 

Otaku joins Fen Light as addons that are back working with RD.

 
 

Rocky owning the keyboard. No work for me today

 
 
 

So I just noticed "Firefox Suggest" appear in my search result using Firefox nightly. I couldn't find which settings to remove it until I turned on debug mode and discovered it in "Secret Settings". hmm. Why is it secret?
