the 1.5b model is not that useful, check the other variants here: https://ollama.com/library/deepseek-r1/tags

Up to 14b is recommended for most home computers: https://ollama.com/library/deepseek-r1

Cherry Studio

Cherry Studio is a desktop client for Windows, Mac and Linux, which supports many LLM providers, including large cloud services and local models.

Among its main functions is the ability to work with more than 300 pre -designed #AI assistants, the creation of custom assistants, as well as support for various formats of documents, including text, images and office files.

The application offers tools for global search, top management and translating, which significantly improves interaction with the user thanks to the cross -platform and many settings options.

An official from Meta's WhatsApp chat service has told Reuters that the company detected an attempt by Israeli spyware company Paragon Solutions to hack 90 users on its platform.

The official added that WhatsApp had sent Paragon a cease-and-desist letter following the hack.

The official said that the hack had targeted civil society and media figures, but declined to provide further information.

A few things to point out from my team's research into AI for our industry: DeepSeek's "performance" depends on the use of the DeepSeek frontend. As soon as you air gap and attempt to localize the model without the Chinese servers, the prompt responses range from the utterly random bizarre stream of GIGO or you get "the user is attempting to access knowledge behind my paywall". The biggest lesson from this DeepSeek reveal isn't whether or not the Chinese could race ahead of us in AI; the lesson is far lower tech and even more haunting: how tightly are we actually controlling technological exports? As far as the DoD employees accessing DeepSeek, from what I said above, they were likely non-Engineering, non-technical employees, such as your HR Karens, downloading this stuff illegally on their smartphones. Per DoD STIGs, all mobile devices that are government furnished can only use a pre-approved list of software. DoD employees blatantly violated that standing order. For the more adept in this room, this should be more obvious sign to a pointed snub against Trump and Pete Hegseth cleaning house within the DoD. Holdovers and people who don't want to follow compliance and orders are going to test the limits, putting the DoD's own cybersecurity on notice and in danger.

Another thing to point out about NVIDIA: Their CEO recently thanked Chinese workers and the Chinese government in the last few days for continued loyalty and contributing to the advancement of AI, despite their stock temporarily tanking 18%. Any other CEO would be in damage control, but instead this guy's praising China. If Trump wants to look at how we've lost our technological edge, start looking at people like Jensen Huang. This DeepSeek smells more like NVIDIA back door gifted China the hardware and knowledge for them to build their own AI; it's free publicity and thumbing his nose at the US government.

⚠️ IMPORTANT⚠️

Israel plans to attach an “identification bracelet” on the wrist of each Palestinian it releases from its prisons engraved in Hebrew & Arabic with the following threat:
“The eternal people do not forget. I will pursue my enemies & catch them.”

In other words, Israel plans to hunt those it is currently freeing, in return for the Israeli captives in Gaza, & is intent on re-arresting them.

Conclusion:

The whole exchange deal is a ruse & a sham from the Israeli side. Once Hamas frees all Israeli captives, the Zionist entity intends to go after the Palestinians it set free.

In Syria, the lunatics are running the asylum

As the dust settles in regime-changed Syria, a new reality emerges – one where the victors are not liberators, but former Al-Qaeda warlords restyled in suits, shaking hands with world leaders, and reshaping the state in their own sectarian image.

I am back, I am at home.. it's burnt, my room for 20 years vanished, and it's severely damaged, but it is still standing and despite everything,
وعد بنعمرها..
Promise we will rebuild.

🇺🇸Was the helicopter trying to hit any plane on its way? Literally looking for a crash.

🇵🇸 Photos: Inside the deadly Israeli invasion of Jenin | Mondoweiss

It has been close to two weeks since the Israeli army launched its latest offensive on the occupied West Bank city of Jenin, its refugee camp, and the surrounding towns. Dubbed #OperationIronWall, the operation has featured a ground invasion and airstrikes that have caused massive #destruction in the city, particularly the Jenin refugee camp. As of Friday, January 31, at least 19 Palestinians had been killed by the Israeli military, including a child as young as two years old. Dozens more have been injured, and thousands of Palestinians have been displaced from the refugee camp.
