Data centers use a lot of water and electricity. Is @Malaysia really equipped to build so many in the coming years?

We must recognise Pres. Trump for his visionary speech: unmatched imagination, pure stream-of-consciousness, the rare gift of saying whatever comes to mind, on anything, to anyone. A masterclass for sociology, int'l relations, and political science. Just hardly any law in it.
3 suggestions from Maria Ressa :
🚫End Big Tech impunity through global accountability
🌐Build alternative infrastructures for trust
💡Invest in comprehensive solutions. Let your imagination run.

One of the evils of the super rich and powerful are often their utter lack of empathy or care to 'others' and the absence of any sense how their flippant decisions impact those living a fragile existence.
‘The impact has been devastating’

The current legal provisions impose fines ranging from RM500 to RM2,000 or up to one year in prison.

As I seem to be shadowbanned, I repeat:
The "riviera plan" for Gaza is nonsense, which nonetheless must be taken very seriously. President Trump has basically declared his intention to commit the int'l crime of forced displacement and resort to unlawful use of force against the Palestinian people and their right to self-determination, in violation of the UN Charter - amounting to aggression.
The 191 members of the UN who still have an interest in protecting themselves from this madness, better recover from their paralysis and stand united against this imperialist lawlessness.
PS: In any case, this plan won't work. How do I know? 76 years of failed attempts by Israel, including 16 months of genocidal assault. Indigenous people do not leave their land.

Here go again:
DT: says something bombastic, attention grabbing, crazy, unsubstantiated...
Others: walk back, qualifies it, 'taken out of context'
DT: I wanted to do it, but those (add qualifiers) people stopped me, say nasty things about me...

Pleased to deliver my message at the conference supporting documentary heritage in the #ArabRegion.
Despite its rich history, only 16 items from the region are on the #MoW Int'l Register, just 3% of inscriptions. Collective action is crucial in protecting the region's heritage.

My name is Dr. Yipeng Ge. I am a family doctor.
I am calling for the immediate release of Dr. Hussam Abu Safiya. He was abducted by the Israeli forces.
I am calling for protection of hospitals and medical workers in Gaza. And an end to the genocide.
#FreeDrHussamAbuSafiya
At the beginning of this month, I heard directly from Dr. Hussam Abu Safiya calling in from Gaza during a @docstopgenocide meeting. He spoke about the conditions in northern Gaza and the medical cases he and his team were seeing at Kamal Adwan Hospital. Including witnessing and experiencing targeted and deliberate attacks on civilians and many healthcare workers.

Margaret Satterthwaite, @SRjudgeslawyers:
"Threats against the ICC promote a culture of impunity.
They make a mockery of the decades-long quest to place law above force and atrocity.
It is time to end the double standards.
International justice exists or it does not."
