Hello, World!
So.. remove himself?
"Vladimir Putin says fighting must end in Ukraine, but adds a ceasefire should lead to "enduring peace and remove underlying causes of this crisis""
www.bbc.co.uk/news/live/cg...
ZELENSKYY: Putin broke the ceasefire. What kind of diplomacy, JD, are you speaking about?
VANCE: I think it's disrespectful to come into the Oval Office and try to litigate this in front of the American media
Russia is the enemy of the US, Ukraine and the rest of the Free World. If you side with Trump, you side with Russia!
How dare a putz like lying JD Vance stick his finger at a hero like Zelensky!

TL;DR: Meta is about to yeet data across the world with its longest-ever undersea cable. π Faster internet, more AI powerβbut will regulators let it slide? π€π¬ #FutureOfTech #Data (7/8)
While this could improve global connectivity, regulators may push back. More control for Big Tech means more scrutiny. ππ #Regulation #Digital (6/8)
Metaβs plan? Bury cables up to 7,000m deep and reinforce high-risk areas to protect against anchors, sabotage, and natural disasters. π§β #Infrastructure #GlobalNetwork (5/8)
But undersea cables are vulnerable. π΅οΈββοΈ From accidental damage to cyber threats, theyβre at the center of rising geopolitical tensions. NATO has increased surveillance after past attacks. #CyberSecurity #Geopolitics (4/8)
More than 95% of global internet traffic already flows through undersea cables. π Now, Meta is strengthening its grip on internet infrastructure, competing with Google. #BigTech #Internet (3/8)
This multi-billion-dollar project aims to boost connectivity and power Metaβs AI ambitions. π€π‘ With 24 fiber pairs, itβll transfer data at record speeds. #AI #Connectivity (2/8)
Meta is building a 50,000km undersea internet cable! ππ‘ Project Waterworth will be the longest underwater cable ever, connecting the US, India, South Africa, Brazil & more. #Tech #Meta (1/8)
Taking so long to act and then doing so not because it's a swastika but because there's "a risk of fraud" is ridiculous. They say they took time to avoid knee-jerk reaction. Come on guys, it's Nazi merchandise. Should be the easiest 1-second decision ever to remove. #Fail thelogic.co/news/shopify...
The AI chip ban aged well didn't it? Such hubris from any country thinking that simply withholding technology from another would stop development. No understanding of complex adaptive systems, international relations, or the interconnectedness of modern knowledge networks.

π These AI chip rules reflect the global AI arms race. The U.S. is tightening control, but will other nations respond with their own regulations? Expect more AI policy battles ahead. ππ #FutureOfAI #Politics 6/7
β οΈ Nvidia isn't happy. The company warns that these sweeping restrictions could weaken U.S. AI leadership by overregulating the industry. Will these rules protect innovation or stifle it? π€π° #TechRegulation #Economy 5/7
π The U.S. is also restricting "model weights," the numerical parameters that fine-tune AI models. The goal? Preventing advanced AI from being deployed outside secure environments. ππ€ #MachineLearning #DataPrivacy 4/7
