There's a massive backlog of awesome stuff that really needs to be released so I'll be doing that within the next week or two.
Along with that there have been several small changes to the API, mostly just fields being renamed. wjs018 has been posting to this community about them as he goes, please take a look if you haven't already. We have two swagger docs available, the automatically-updated one that includes all the changes at crust.piefed.social/api/alpha/… and the old one at freamon.github.io/piefed-api/
There is a new endpoint at crust.piefed.social/api/alpha/… which will tell you which version the instance is running on. You can get the same information at crust.piefed.social/api/alpha/… but /version is lighter on the server so please use that where possible.

‘I’ve never seen such an extensive film of pollution:’ New oil spill dumps over 10 tons of petroleum in the Black Sea, killing birds and coating Russian beaches
cross-posted from: lemmy.sdf.org/post/41826094

"Based on current [satellite] images, the area [of the slick] already measures 350 square kilometers. In my entire career, I’ve never seen such an extensive film of pollution on the sea. The film remains quite thick for this type of petroleum product. This means that the slick currently contains at least 10 metric tons of petroleum products. It’s located west of Anapa, with a small chance of some reaching the shore north of Anapa. The slick is moving toward Crimea, but for now it’s passing south of the Kerch Strait." -- Sergei Statichny, remote sensing expert at Russia’s Marine Rescue Service, according to pro-Kremlin agency TASS

It must be so confusing being a bird. You've got these long gangly aliens building inconceivably large portable and indestructible nests, and travelling insane distances - clearly the work of a superior lifeform.
And then they just dump this toxic stuff all over the place, killing all your friends. At first you must think "well, maybe this is beneficial in the longrun and the deaths were unavoidable".... but when it keeps happening and the effects get worse each time, you really begin to question their motives.
And that's why seagulls stealing food out of people's hands is based.

I use Kagi's AI search for things that are "unGooglable", but you explicitly have to turn that on by adding a question mark to the end of the query. Otherwise, I use its standard search.
It does take a little bit longer to get answers, but there's value in the struggle. I don't want to become a braindead AI repeater.

Trump’s Crypto Dealings Now Have the Perfect Cover
Link without paywall:
yahoo.com/news/articles/trump-…
The Trumps have never been known for their subtlety: They like to do things fast, big, and loud. This is especially so in the context of cryptocurrency, a noisy and chaotic industry by nature. Remember our president’s collection of NFTs? Among the depictions on these digital trading cards is a portrait of Donald Trump in an Iron Man–inspired suit, accompanied by the caption “SUPERTRUMP.” Or how about the $TRUMP meme coin and accompanying gamified gala dinner for its biggest investors

People who complain that crypto is a "pyramid scheme" or whatever are correct, but they fail to realize that capitalism is a pyramid scheme at best. I mean the biggest stock last year was a fascist surveillance company... And stuff like this is exactly why crypto will continue to succeed under capitalism.
It's a casino economy. Our lives have already been sold for chips. The branding of the chips doesn't actually matter but improved chip technology does. Casinos aren't actually using the same chips from the 1800s but the state is.

He's very clearly saying it's the problem with the system by assigning fault:
“What’s actually going to happen is rich people are going to use AI to replace workers,” Hinton said. “It’s going to create massive unemployment and a huge rise in profits. It will make a few people much richer and most people poorer. That’s not AI’s fault, that is the capitalist system.”
