With the integration of LM Studio and iTerm2, powered by the cutting-edge DeepSeek LLM, developers can now streamline their workflows. This setup enhances coding efficiency while maintaining complete control over their data. Running DeepSeek LLM locally offers several benefits: Enhanced Privacy: Your data stays on your machine, ensuring that sensitive information is not shared with external servers. There's no need to send data back and forth over the internet.

In today's digital age, safeguarding your data is more crucial than ever. With the increasing reliance on cloud storage, it's essential to have a robust backup strategy in place. This blog post will guide you through automating your cloud backups (like Onedrive in this example) using rclone and Duplicati on a Linux system (in my case Ubuntu 24.04.1 LTS). Why rclone and Duplicati?

ssh-audit is a powerful tool designed to help you assess the security of your SSH servers (and clients!). It provides detailed information about the server's configuration, supported algorithms, and potential vulnerabilities. In this guide, I'll walk you through the steps to install ssh-audit and run your first security tests. Secure SSH configuration made easy. Installation on Linux Clone the Repository:

Most major Linux distributions have adopted nftables as their default firewall framework, often using it under the hood for iptables commands. Here are some of the key distributions that support nftables: Debian: Starting with Debian Buster, nftables is the default backend for iptables. Ubuntu: From Ubuntu 20.10 (Groovy Gorilla) onwards, nftables is included and can be used as the default firewall framework.
