I ran the command:
xvfb-run firefox
"https://www.msnbc.com/all-in/watch/it-just-keeps-getting-worse-for-paul-manafort-1279770691720?cid=eml_mda_20180718"
I heard a few seconds of silence and got the prompt back.  Nothing played
and nothing downloaded.
I got a pointer to
https://raw.githubusercontent.com/revnode/xvfb-run/master/xvfb-run
and downloaded and installed that script.  Does that script have
dependencies I didn't download?
I also downloaded the file and ran file on it and file just kept on
searching and doesn't know the file type for this file.
What I downloaded using wget was 1.95MB in length and it came down as a
text file.
