The same is also true of ChatGPT. On the surface the results are incredibly believable but when you dig into it or try to use some of the generated code it's nonsense.

You might not want to post apologia for a company defending a fascist party once, then doubling down, then trying to take it all back saying “it was a mistake to get political”
At no point did I state "it was a mistake to get political" that is a narrative entirely from your own imagination.
- I made a sarcastic response to the opening comment. People didn't notice the sarcasm. No worries my sense of humour isn't overly obvious and I refuse to litter \s marks everywhere so I'm not too bothered if my comments are misinterpreted at times.
- the opening commenter responds sarcastically.
- I respond with another comment that's absolutely dripping with sarcasm and even explicitly call out Proton's bullshit. Somehow people still don't note the sarcasm and yet they understood the firadin's comment was sarcastic, odd but again I'm not too bothered.
- Somebody implies I haven't understood a joke.
- I try to delicately suggest I've been misunderstood. Again, I'm not too bothered.
- Your response. Absolutely absurd.
At no point did I even defend the Nazis, at no point did I say or imply what you're quoting me as saying.
The most ridiculous thing is you accuse me of "apologia" on the same day I repeatedly call out the inappropriateness of Proton's stance because I got tired of reading so much "apologia":

The solace I do take from this is that at least people are aware of the insanity of the hill Proton have decided to die on.

Exactly it's totally different.
And they never specifically praised the vice president they simply made some fucked up association that his attendance of an event meant he was on side contrary to pretty much every other indication that has ever been given.
It's important for national security that we all work together to protect US corporate profits.
For clarity the company did not explicitly support Trump. They simply stated negative things about the "corporate dems" and praised the new republican party.
The desperate PR campaign against deepseek is also very entertaining.
How apt, just yesterday I put together an evidenced summary of the CEOs recent absurd comments. Why are Proton so keen to throw away so much good will people had invested in them?!
This is what the CEO posting as u/Proton_Team stated in a response on r/ProtonMail:
Here is our official response, also available on the Mastodon post in the screenshot:
Corporate capture of Dems is real. In 2022, we campaigned extensively in the US for anti-trust legislation.
Two bills were ready, with bipartisan support. Chuck Schumer (who coincidently has two daughters working as big tech lobbyists) refused to bring the bills for a vote.
At a 2024 event covering antitrust remedies, out of all the invited senators, just a single one showed up - JD Vance.
By working on the front lines of many policy issues, we have seen the shift between Dems and Republicans over the past decade first hand.
Dems had a choice between the progressive wing (Bernie Sanders, etc), versus corporate Dems, but in the end money won and constituents lost.
Until corporate Dems are thrown out, the reality is that Republicans remain more likely to tackle Big Tech abuses.

To call out the important bits:
- He refers to it as the "official response"
- Indicates that JD Vance is on their side just because he attended an event that other invited senators didn't
- Rattles on about "corporate Dems" with incredible bias
- States "Republicans remain more likely to tackle Big Tech abuses" which is immediately refuted by every response

Why is this an issue. They have their incentive to keep building and selling. As long as they’re building and selling, it doesn’t matter to the rest of us what their profit is.
"Issue" was probably the wrong word "potential for controversy" would have been more appropriate. It's potentially controversial because if the profits exceed the subsidies you're effectively just giving money to shareholders.
If they’re building make excess profit, that’s just more opportunity for legacy manufacturers to be competitive. Capitalism 101
No. This is entirely the opposite of capitalism. Under capitalism there are no subsidies. If a business isn't profitable then it fails. Simple.
What we have is an abomination of capitalism and corporate socialism. That's the controversy I referred to above. Where governments funnel money to enrich corporations and the select few rather than helping improve population they are charged with governing.
So it's a government subsidy at no cost to the government, funded instead by other companies? That's actually quite a neat idea.
I guess the issues arise if Tesla just pockets the subsidy without passing on the savings to savings to people buying EVs

It’s in the article too. I don’t know if that’s a later addition but it’s there.
It really would not surprise me if it were an edit and the journalists' source was the reddit thread
That's such a strange way to phrase it but I'm going to opt to believe you're human and asking in good faith.

The Proton CEO explicitly used Proton's official accounts and declared them as the company's official stance.
I don't mind people having political views I disagree with. The lines were crossed when his absurd personal views were published :
- using company accounts
- as official statements
edit: I was asked to provide sources so please find them here: https://feddit.uk/post/23386970/14888441

According to commenters on reddit who listened to the ATC recordings: ATC asked the blackhawk to confirm visual of the passenger aircraft. When the blackhawk confirmed ATC told them to wait and then manoeuvre behind the passenger aircraft.
The military aircraft was therefore responsible for maintaining a visual separation which clearly they failed to do. Possibly they were looking at the wrong aircraft. Therefore it seems likely ATC wasn't responsible.
Obvs this all based on idiots on reddit claiming to have expertise so trust it as much as you would ChatGPT.
Thanks, I did get both setup with Docker, my frustration was neither ollama or open-webui included instructions on how to setup both together.
In my opinion setup instructions should guide you to a usable setup. It's a missed opportunity not to include a
docker-compose.ymlconnecting the two. Is anyone really using ollama without a UI?Thanks
Any recommendations for communities to learn more?
Frustratingly Their setup guide is terrible. Eventually managed to get it running. Downloaded a model and only after it download did it inform me I didn't have enough RAM to run it. Something it could have known before the slow download process. Then discovered my GPU isn't supported. And running it on a CPU is painfully slow. I'm using an AMD 6700 XT and the minimum listed is 6800 https://github.com/ollama/ollama/blob/main/docs/gpu.md#amd-radeon
the republican party is now the party of the people and most likely to crack down on big tech
yes🤡
Why do you think that?
Is it possible to download it without first signing up to their website?
Surely the point of your own domain is to personalise it? Why would you go for something generic?
Ah, thanks for clarifying that. I definitely misinterpreted what you said.
I'm not sure I've even read Proton's latest reply in full.
When I saw it on reddit I just got annoyed by all the boot licking comments saying variations of "thanks for being so transparent".
I'm unlikely to believe any post incident damage control from Proton. Their CEO caused irreparable damage to their reputation. The only resolution is to remove him from his post.
I'm tired of seeing people claiming that alternatives are probably just as bad. That's irrelevant. the alternatives haven't betrayed the faith users place in them. and given the scale and nature of Proton as an organisation it's entirely reasonable to expect a higher standard of them.
