This is brilliant.
Data centres are energy hungry but what if we could use their waste heat to heat our homes?
That's exactly what happens in places like Finland: Cities are tapping the vast amounts of waste heat generated by data centres, and feeding it into district-heating networks.

The U.S. has conducted 19 strikes on alleged drug-carrying boats, killing at least 76 people.
Remember: no judge or jury has found these boats were trafficking drugs. We're simply taking Trump's word for it.
He’s unilaterally acting as judge, jury, and executioner.
This is a danger to us all.

“There were no agreements with the Muscovites in the 19th, 20th, or 21st century, only lies, a desire to take lives, and to destroy,” said Polish President Nawrocki. He added that history offers a lesson for modern Poland: deals with Russia have never been real, and it’s a truth everyone must learn.

What’s its key example? Wait for it . . . It’s "orders to fire upon the shipwrecked."

Excellent thread
In March of 1945, the US Army issued this "fact sheet" to guide conversations with soldiers on the topic of fascism, paying particular attention to the ongoing threat that domestic fascist movements posed to the US. Their analysis of what a homegrown US fascism would look like is interesting.
![CRESTRICTED]
ORIENTATION
FACT SHEET
64
WAR DEPARTMENT-WASHINGTON 25, D. C. • 24 March 1945 FASCISM!
Note For This Week's Discussion:
Fascism is not the easiest thing to identify and analyze; nor, once in power, is it easy to destroy. It is important for our future and that of the world that as many of us as possible understand the causes and practices of fascism, in order to combat it. Points to stress are: (1) Fascism is more apt to come to power at a time of economic crisis;
(2) fascism inevitably leads to war; (3) it can come to any country; (4) we can best combat it by making our democracy work.](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:miczfsfixolk42l7343z3bpd/bafkreigaks7wgy4rvmszhobeed7hlaqap4mynkhqketipzolmesislssci@jpeg)
