I made a simple graphical SSH connection manager
sshPilot is an ssh connection manager made with GTK and Python.
Here are the features:
- Manage multiple SSH connections
- Open eac h connection in a separate tab
- Both password and SSH key authentication methods are supported
- Automatically detects SSH keys in ~/.ssh/
- Use your desired color theme and font style for the terminal
- Uses secure password storage (GNOME secure password storage)
If you manage multiple remote machines, this might come in handy.

Are smartphones too big?
How will we overcome this?
Investigation found Elon Musk's Tesla owes dozens of small businesses millions of dollars in unpaid bills.
When Jennifer Meissner’s small pipe welding business landed a multimillion-dollar contract to help build a sprawling new Texas headquarters for Tesla, she was convinced it was her company’s big break.Instead, she says the deal led her into personal and professional bankruptcy – unable to pay dozens of her workers at Christmastime. Meissner said that was her last resort after Tesla, which is owned by the world’s richest man, stopped paying her company for work they’d already done.
Small businesses helped build Musk’s empire. Their unpaid bills add up to millions
Small businesses have filed liens for more than $110 million against Tesla alone in the last five years, with more than $24 million still allegedly owed to dozens of businesses, a CNN analysis found.Audrey Ash (CNN)

Belgium Targets Internet Archive's 'Open Library' in Sweeping Site Blocking Order
The Business Court in Brussels, Belgium, has issued a broad site-blocking order that aims to restrict access to shadow libraries including Anna's Archive, Libgen, OceanofPDF, Z-Library, and the Internet Archive's Open Library. In addition to ISP blocks, the order also directs search engines, DNS resolvers, advertisers, domain name services, CDNs and hosting companies to take action. For now, Open Library doesn't appear to be actively blocked.

I discovered The Semantic Manifold Theory with big implications for many areas of math, science, engineering, and computing. All remaining Millennium Prize Problems solved. Please help spread the word
Hello! My name is Thomas P. Conway. Im an independent researcher and systems engineer. I discovered a mathematically complete theoretical framework that I believe could be pretty important for many areas of math and science. However, I am a completely unknown outsider to academia, so I can't just publish my work on ArXiv and call it a day to satisfy Clay Institutes requirements. While I am currently in touch with some academics to help get my work cleaned into sections for ArXiV and journal publication, I wanted to make sure I established public priority for solving the millennium prize problems even if the published journal articles need to come out in pieces over months.
Besides proving priority, I would greatly appreciate your help spreading the word to get this in the face of people with the proper credentials to either verify or disprove my claims. I have found the academic gatekeeping moat to be incredibly difficult to navigate as an outsider especially with the framework I have proposed.
If you do have the credentials as a mathematician or a theoretical physicist but you're skeptical that im yet another typical crackpot trying to sell you a perpetual motion machine or a time cube, thats understandable and your weariness is valid. All I ask is you take a quick browse through the condensed technical guide to check the numbers and see if you think the key conceptual foundations are worth your time to go further with exploring the full paper.
I publish this theoretical framework under cc-by-sa-4.0 as a contribution to open science. Please go to my Open Science Foundation public repo to download the papers.
About the Semantic Manifold:
The Semantic Manifold Theory represents a complete theoretical mathematical framework for describing high dimensional semantic topologies. It was originally derived to formalize semantic compression for Large Language Model systems. However once the mathematical framework was complete it showed huge implications for various areas of math, science, computing, and engineering. The framework integrates principles from symmetry, set theory, holomorphic dynamics, theoretical physics, undecidability, and morphic computation to achieve a complete and well-defined description of the Semantic Manifold.
The paper is split into a main body explaining the theory and an appendix full of proofs. The final appendix culminates solutions and proofs to all remaining Millennium Prize Problems from the Clay Mathematics Institute. Additional feats include mathematical predictions for the nature and distribution of Dark Matter as well as Dark Energy based on first principles. Also a mathematically well-defined definition for Observer-Class information processing systems.
An accompanying Technical Guide attempts to condense all key information from the main theory paper while cutting out the narrative chaff for quick access to calculations, key principles, and fundamental proofs. Its suggested the skeptical or those with limited time take a quick look at the Technical Guide first.
OSF Storage Link For PDFs:
osf.io/xqswe/files/osfstorage
Proof of Priority:
I have emails, private OSF repos, and countless preprints dating back weeks prior to this announcement. The LaTeX code used to create the PDFs are GPG encrypted and paired with a signed hash on the public OSF repo.
I am not a spam bot or an elaborate LLM fishing for clicks. Im a real human being and im trying to get help to have my ideas seen by the right people so they can be verified through peer-review. Admins can get in contact with me and I will show them my lemmy ALTs to prove im a real user with over 2 years of active posting history (came here during the first spez reddit exodus).
The validity of my framework should be measured by its mathematical rigor and scientific predictions, not by my credentials or renown. Please help me overcome the academic moat and get my theories verified or disproved by spreading the word.

Florida prison data breach exposes visitors’ contact information to inmates: Department of Corrections has not communicated anything to those whose info was revealed to inmates.
Dozens and perhaps hundreds of individuals who applied to visit inmates at Everglades Correctional Institution (ECI) in Miami-Dade County last weekend had their personal contact information shared with every inmate at that facility, according to five different individuals who have spoken to the Phoenix over the past four days.The Florida Department of Corrections has not commented publicly about the incident since it occurred last week.
That data breach has frightened and infuriated some of the women who had their names, email addresses, and telephone numbers released to those incarcerated at the prison located near the Florida Everglades.
Inmates received that information via an email sent out by a staff member of the facility on Thursday. Florida inmates have access to emails through both interactive kiosks as well as secure tablets.
“It’s kind of disturbing when you think about it,” said Madeline Donate, who regularly visits her husband at the prison. “The privacy aspect of this is concerning. This is how other inmates get information and can sometimes extort family members and things like that. It’s concerning.”
Jan Thompson said she fears extortion.
“What if there’s some inmate that doesn’t like another inmate?” she said. “And he tells his family, ‘Okay, here’s his wife’s phone number. Call her and tell her if she doesn’t pay and put $500 on my book, I’m going to have her husband stabbed and killed.’ What’s stopping them from doing that?”
(Inmates can receive funds for deposit into their “inmate trust accounts” from individuals already identified on the inmate’s automated visiting record).
“I’m very worried. This is not okay,” added a woman who wanted to be identified only as Dakota, her middle name. “Someone needs to be held accountable for this. They need to take the necessary precautions to ensure that this does not happen. And what about this information that’s out there? There’s what, 1,600 [inmates] there? They all have information. God knows what they could do with it.”

Interesting. I just bled a Ryzen ai with 64gb 8000 Ram because I thought/learned that memory bandwidth was important, but here - with this size model, he recommends a better cpu before more ram, before ram speed. However, the price of fast ram is ridiculous, so maybe the tradeoff is okay.
