I would never defend the terrible acts of violence in Southport but I see these acts were committed by a disturbed individual. His origin is irrelevant. You on the other hand are happy to defend the posting of disgusting racist tropes.

The sly insinuation was that because his parents are Rwandan he must be predisposed to acts of violence because of the horrific genocide in Rwanda in 1994. This is the most disgusting racism.

Crap! Your suggestion that somehow the Southport murderer was inevitably going to commit his crimes because of his genes is the most despicable racism. Do you even know that the perpetrators parents were Hutus? This kid was born in Wales & brought up in the UK. In any case his origin is...

That is not what I said at all. I said that this is "the usual crowd of racists that have always been around" & it is. Their numbers are small. How many have been involved in the rioting? Hundreds? Low thousands? They are a tiny fraction of the population & a tiny fraction of the white working...

The idea that this is some white working class revolution in response to immigration is nonsense. This is the usual crowd of racists that have always been around but now are whipped up into a frenzy by bad actors using social media.

It's easy. The far right started it. They have always been around. Their numbers are small with he numbers of anti-fascists are vastly larger.. They were seen off in the Seventies by the likes of the Anti-Nazi League, Rock against Racism etc We can see them off again.

This is why right wing thugs are rioting. The violence is being whipped up by bad actors cynically spreading disinformation on social media. https://www.theguardian.com/politics/article/2024/aug/03/the-far-right-has-moved-online-where-its-voice-is-more-dangerous-than-ever

The last time there was widespread rioting was in 2012 ostensibly sparked by the police shooting of Mark Duggan. There was widespread looting & rioting over a number of days with several deaths directly caused by the rioting. Interestingly enough Keir Starmer was Director of Public Prosecutions...

No you can't as they are sold out.

In 2021 there were just under 400,000 battery cars on the road in the UK plus 350,000 plug-in hybrids out of a total of 33 million cars in total. Chances of your battery car catching fire 25/400,000 or 1 in 16,000 Chances of your petrol/diesel car catching fire 1529/in 33,000,000 or 1 in 21,582...

It wasn't luck it was superior design. Crowdstrike on MacOS cannot cause a kernel panic as it runs in user mode not as a kernel extension (kext). https://eclecticlight.co/2024/07/22/could-our-macs-be-crowdstruck/

After charging for 24 hours the battery that dies after rising 50m now died after travelling 400m. I put I back on charge & after about five minutes the red light went out & the green light came on. Voltage at the terminals is 41.1V. I have cracked open the battery that is completely dead &...

Michelle Obama has made it very clear that she will never run for president.

I'm amazed that I haven't heard about anyone claiming compensation from Cloudstrike. It wasn't Microsoft's fault but it is their problem as Windows shouldn't allow user code to run at a privilege level to cause a kernel panic. It's the design of Windows that is the issue. Apple have addressed...

Thanks for the pointers. I haven't got time to take the batteries apart this evening so will report back tomorrow. I did fish out my digital multimeter & can confirm that the two chargers are both delivering 42V. For the battery that dies after 50m it's 39.8V on the charge port & for the one...

I just used the same word that he used in replying to me. What's sauce for the goose... I asked for a way of reviving the batteries & I appreciated the response. I tried leaving the battery charging for 24 hours but it made no difference as it still died again after 50m. I then mentioned the...

Thanks for your suggestions but I didn't ask for an alternative solution. I first asked if the battery could be revived. I then asked where I could get a battery for the bike for £300. I just want a replacement battery. I don't want to replace the rack & have to rewire the bike. I have just...

What's involved is not sliding the dead battery off the rack mount & sliding the replacement battery in its place. This is what I want to do. I don't want to fit a new rack & have to re-wire the bike. Instead of ignorant replies that don't acknowledge what is involved can you point me to an...

I think that my best bet might be to get two discounted genuine 375wH Wisper batteries for £255 each https://winstanleysbikes.co.uk/wisper-375wh-rack-battery

They will fit just about any bike only if you replace the rack & rewire the bike. They are not a replacement battery that I can just slip onto the existing rack.
