Today I can share a major development status update of XPipe, a connection hub that allows you to access your entire server infrastructure from your local desktop. It can make your life easier when working with any kind of servers by eliminating all the commonly tedious tasks that come up when interacting with remote systems, either from the terminal or from a graphical interface. XPipe comes with integrations for SSH, docker and other containers, various hypervisors, and more without requiring setup on your remote systems. You can also keep using your favourite text/code editors, terminals, password managers, shells, command-line tools, and more with it.
Docker compose
This release introduces support for docker compose. Containers in compose projects are grouped together and can be managed all at the same time via compose project entries.
The container state information shown is also improved, always showing the container state in combination with the system information.
Batch mode
There is now a batch mode available that allows you to select multiple systems via checkboxes and perform actions for the entire batch. This can include starting/stopping, automatically adding available subconnections, or running scripts on all selected systems.
You can toggle the batch mode in the top left corner.
Password managers
The password manager integrations have been upgraded: - There is now support for KeePassXC - All password manager integrations have been reworked to work out of the box without configuration - There is now support to use password manager SSH agents more easily - You can now unlock the xpipe vault with your password manager
SSH
Various improvements were made to the SSH implementation: - The SSH gateway implementation has been reworked so that you can now use local SSH keys and other identities for connections with gateways - The VSCode SSH remote integration has been reworked to allow more connections it to be opened in vscode. It now supports essentially all simple SSH connections, custom SSH connections, SSH config connections, and VM SSH connections. This support includes gateways - There is now built-in support to refresh an SSO openpubkey with the opkssh tool when needed - There is now the option to enable verbose ssh output to diagnose connection issues better - For VMs, you can now choose to not use the hypervisor host as SSH gateway and instead directly connect to the VM IP
Other
Connection names, e.g. VM names, will now automatically update on refresh when they were changed
You can now launch custom scripts within XPipe with a command output dialog window without having to open a terminal
Various installation types like the linux apt/rpm repository and homebrew installations now support automatic updates as well
The k8s integration will now automatically add all namespaces for the current context when searching for connections
The application window will now hide any unnecessary sidebars when being resized to a small width. This makes it much easier to use XPipe in a tiling window arrangement
The webtop has been updated to have terminal multiplexers, proper konsole tab support, disabled kwallet, and more
Various error messages and connection creation dialogs now contain a help link to the documentation sections
A note on the open-source model
Since it has come up a few times, in addition to the note in the git repository, I would like to clarify that XPipe is not fully FOSS software. The core that you can find on GitHub is Apache 2.0 licensed, but the distribution you download ships with closed-source extensions. There's also a licensing system in place with limitations on what kind of systems you can connect to in the community edition as I am trying to make a living out of this. I understand that this is a deal-breaker for some, so I wanted to give a heads-up.
Outlook
If this project sounds interesting to you, you can check it out on GitHub, visit the Website, or check out the Docs for more information.
Giving it a quick scan, it does look interesting. I am not sure whether I will try it as I don't see the need to visualise beyond what I can do with a shell and the openstack dashboard, but there can definitely be use cases for it.
Not being FOSS is the deal-breaker though. Not sure if I am too much of a sceptic but I prefer open source when having software that accesses my private key/servers.
I think if you have a specialized tools with openstack, XPipe probably can't compete with that in that area. But it can make your life easier in a lot of other areas and common tasks when it comes to accessing many servers.
About the FOSS requirement, I know that this is a dealbreaker for some. That is a tradeoff when going the commercial route
Yes, it is absolutely valid that you decided to commercialise your project and keeping parts or all of the code closed. As I work in the public sector and we are encouraged to use open source and write open source software, my knowledge regarding closed software solutions is thin. Is there a "standard way" how closed software is able to guarantee private key safety? I could imagine solutions where there is a separate handler that is open source so that one can verify that only specific information is passed into the closed software area, but this doesn't sound feasible when talking about full terminal support within the closed software.
Again, there is nothing wrong with going commercial! I am sure I will release closed software (side projects), too, at some point.
I think in the end you still have to exercise some trust. There are things like audits, but these are costly and not an option in the current stage. Maybe in the future. Best I can do is to provide transparency by open-sourcing large parts of the codebase and providing detailed security information like docs.xpipe.io/reference/securiโฆ
As someone who sometimes sells to the german public sector, it is true that they would prefer a good open source solution if it was available. But me being a german vendor makes up for it, as they still prefer this a lot more over any US-based vendors.
In general about the key handling, XPipe doesn't read any kind of keys itself, it only forwards them to the local OpenSSH client. It is essentially a wrapper around in existing ssh client, and doesn't implement anything related to key handling itself.
Due to its nature, XPipe has to handle a lot of sensitive data. This can range from passwords for all kinds of servers, to SSH keys, and more. Therefore, the security model of XPipe plays a crucial role.
Are there any plans to make a Flatpak version of this? I've moved to an immutable OS and none of the options you have will install. Flatpaks are their preferred method. I know I could self host my own version which may be what I may end up doing anyway, but I'd prefer to have it more local yet another docker container. ๐
Nope, an application like this can't work as a flatpak as the sandbox prevents almost all shell functionality and makes the application unusable. Yes, the AppImages are basically the best solution for immutable operating systems.

@ScoWer22 It's easy, do the math, the deepest nuclear crater ever is 320 feet deep, their bunker was 1600 feet deep, the 3000ton bunker buster bombs can make a crater 60 feet deep. It's clear they knew this in advance.

If you find an alternative to PayPal, I'd appreciate it if you'd let me know. Although PayPal has worked well for me, I don't really trust it due to the sudden shutdowns that have occurred recently.
Pro-tip: Debit transactions are protected by law. The customer doesn't get the benefits of a credit transaction, meaning they can't cancel it. So this might drive some people away if they feel it's too risky to pay for commissions via debit transaction. But if it's people donating to you, then there's no issue.
I heard people talking about this way back when PayPal started pulling this shit. H-Manga site admins gave this recommendation.

Yesterday, Iran retaliated for the US โstrikesโ on its nuclear facilities, concluding the final act of the choreographed play weโve been witnessing.
"Over the past week, hundreds of volunteers rallied together to mud out homes after Wheelingโs catastrophic flooding.
Through rain and heat, theyโve pulled out thousands of pounds of mud, truckloads of debris, and countless precious belongings from over 100 houses. This is the power of people.
We sent teams to help the Ohio Valley on day one and weโll keep doing it until all needs have been met. Through community, we can build back better, stronger, and more connected.
Join the movement - follow along with @/ovmutual aid to find out about volunteer opportunities."
Vaccine makers, pharmacists and professional medical societies opposed to recent changes in vaccine policy are banding together to create their own system for recommending and purchasing vaccines.
The details are scant, but the key to the US claiming Iran's nuclear capacity has been severely damaged is by claiming Iran's (de)conversion plant was destroyed. What is that?
I talked a bit about the ~400kg of 60% enriched uranium that Iran has on hand. As far as we know this uranium is still in the gaseous uranium fluoride form used to enrich it, probably in metal gas canisters. They probably want to leave it like that if they want to enrich it further.
In general, to build something useful (like a reactor or god forbid a bomb), they would want to convert it into the metal form. This is what a conversion plant does. I've always heard conversion meaning uranium oxide solids to uranium fluoride gases, and the reverse process as DEconvesion, but that's semantics.
Iran has a conversion plant in Isfahan, which was heavily damaged in the most recent attacks (edit: Isfahan facilities were heavily damaged, I don't know about the conversion plant itself). So if it was destroyed, it would probably prevent them from converting the gaseous enriched uranium to a solid form.
Much like enrichment plants, conversion plants are very large chemical plants, and I imagine the chance of them having a domestic hidden one to be fairly low.
@Infoseepage Iโm honestly not sure. Iโm super curious what the smallest size conversion plant would be. Iโm a bit too far on the academic side than the engineering to have a good idea of something that specific.
Listening to my spouse give our dog a bath. He keeps trying to get out of the tub. I had to gently remind my spouse to stop saying โnoโ repeatedly and try to find a way to say โyesโ instead (with praise or treats ideally) for the small moments he is doing what he wants. Much, MUCH more successful. Yes > No
He couldnโt do it because he was too frustrated. So he needed to concentrate on himself and take deeps and get emotionally regulated first. I swear that most of caretaking is learning how to calm down.

@ninja8tyu @Kyonko802 @kilostere I just think its retarded to ban people for playing a global version of a game. What the fuck is that gonna achieve?
Also he was bitching people post too much Blue Archive instead of Uma's. if anything people playing the global version would get people to post more Uma's.
@Kyonko802 @kilostere i agree, but "people playing the global version would get people to post more uma's" is in fact the issue; who would make up the "more people" ๐ณ๏ธโโง๏ธ
So that would mean i would be the only one posting more Uma if i end up liking the global version since everyone else is too chickenshit to try it because of wrath.
@ninja8tyu @Kyonko802 @kilostere >everyone else is too chickenshit The simple solution is trying it and not posting it because Halo (presumably) doesn't have any spyware on our systems. That aside, I for one am not playing it because of live service fatigue, and no amount of Uma Musume being more forgiving than others will make me want to play another gacha. The only gacha I still have downloaded with is one I keep up with so I know when the end of service is for me to celebrate.
If there were a proper Uma Musume game (that isn't a minigame collection) and I might give it a shot.
The point is the Linux Kernel is covering the same security mitigations which make the CPU level ones redundant. If all users are using the Linux Kernel, why would it be an issue?
Depends on how you use your system if you have multiple users. CPU mitigations wont protect GPU workloads, and vice versa. If your CPU was mitigating GPU workloads, that would probably be a massive performance loss.
The vulnerability is all on the CPU side. The GPU workloads being referenced are only vulnerable on the CPU instruction set used to pass workloads to the GPU.
Talking about CPU and GPU workloads as entirely separate in this context is misleading as the vulnerability is with CPU code execution that passes tasks to the GPU.
The GPU is not vulnerable to this particular attack, only the CPU is.
As you can see here impacted hardware is all CPU side, you can also read about how the proposed attacks work.
Forgive me. Just trying to understand. How does the kernel flag NEO_DISABLE_MITIGATIONS have any affect on the CPU? Seems to be targeted towards OpenCL and Level Zero, which are APIs to access GPU hardware directly.
One thing Ubuntu users should know is that the change will only provide performance boosts when GPUs are handling workloads running the OpenCL framework or the OneAPI Level Zerointerface. That likely means that people using games and similar apps will see no benefit.

The image features a meme format with a scene from the animated series "Family Guy." In the foreground, a character resembling Peter Griffin is seated on a wooden chair, wearing an orange jumpsuit and a gray cap, with his hands bound by black straps. He has a neutral expression. To the left, another character is holding a red lever, suggesting a grim context. In the upper left corner, a smartphone screen displays a collection of meme images, with the top image labeled "Rare Vances." The text overlay reads, "Me getting executed in 2025 for my meme folder." The background is a gray brick wall, and the overall tone is humorous and satirical.

Garden update: it all looks good. Everything's growing. I'm a *little* worried that I overcrowded the plants, but if I did, oh well.
Also, fucking beans. You would hardly guess I only planted them last week, they're fucking sprightly already! They're taller than the borage, and the borage has been growing for weeks.
I wanna construct a little stool or chair so I can sit next to the garden for hours, because things are getting interesting down there.
Alright Vivaldi ... what's this new seeimng garbage "first suggestion is a site I've never visited, and when you delete it a new never-before-visited site is injected as the top result" thing?

TradeInn? "Direct match"? Because I pressed "t" in the address bar?
Found it. Unticking immediately - and this is the sort of thing that drops my trust in your project, by the way.
Not only the bad behaviour, but also the term "direct match" is a terrible name for an autocomplete sub-feature. Direct match implies 1:1. Not "a suggestion from our pre-selected corporate partner list, rammed right to the top of your list".
The image shows a browser tab interface with a dark theme. The active tab is labeled "Twitch - twitch.tv" and is highlighted in a teal color. The tab title bar includes a purple Twitch logo on the left and a close button on the right. Below the tab, there is a list of other tabs, each with a unique label and icon. The first tab in the list is "Tradeinn - Handle online," followed by "Ecosia Search," "ironmouse - Twitch - twitch.tv/ironmouse," and "henyathegenius - Twitch - twitch.tv/henyathegenius." The last tab is "Zwift | The Indoor Cycling App for Smart Trainers & Bikes - zwift.com." Each tab has a small icon on the left, and the "ironmouse" and "henyathegenius" tabs have a "History" button on the right. The background of the tab list is black, and the text is white, providing a high contrast for readability.
