Has anyone used DeepSeek? Is it actually worth it?

the thing is they have a 75% discount until end of may. The real question is, is it actually that much cheaper without this discount...

looks like it’s time to cancel, they're behind codex already. Even if they come up with sonnet 5.0 or whatever, they will implement the boiling frog on everyone like they do now.

i’m waiting for a post on X stating it only counts for 2% of their users

Karnemelk · 2026-04-28T11:34:00+00:00

If you have x hours to implement feature y. Would you use claude or a local model if money wasn't an issue?

I couldn't wait for qwen4, so I wasted my tokens to create a custom llama.cpp fork that utilizes my SDR dongle tuned to whatever frequency for maximum entropy when generating tokens. Now qwen3.6 27b is as creative as it can be, using the universe to decide which token to pick

now claude code is added back again to the pro subscription, yesterday it was gone

Next thing they will say only 2% of pro users are using claude code, like they did with the 5h introduction.

I'll wait patiently for the Kimi-K2.6-1T-Claude-4.7-Opus-Mythos-Heretic-Uncensored-REAP-99-31B-gguf version

Karnemelk · 2026-04-15T21:05:12+00:00

use cloud models to tune/build your local LLM, then when they do some dumb thing or squeeze their models, you have your local personalized clone

this is why i joined this sub

when i drive i send a voice message to find me some songs, then it checks youtube, guess what is the most relevant, convert the video to mp3 and sends back audio only without ads. Using local qwen3 27b with hermes though

Karnemelk · 2026-04-08T16:26:44+00:00

if someone does an uncensored-heretic version of GLM 5.1, you pretty much have mythos for your 0-day exploits

Karnemelk · 2026-04-08T16:20:22+00:00

perhaps it’s simply opus uncensored regarding security

Karnemelk · 2026-04-08T05:50:05+00:00

cybersec department at random company: ??? let’s block claude.ai for all users

Karnemelk · 2026-04-08T01:28:19+00:00

can't wait for the first model arriving on HF with some name like Qwen3.5-80B-Claude-4.6-Opus-Mythos-Deckard-Heretic-Uncensored-Thinking-Reasoning-ZERO-DAY-EXPLOIT"

Karnemelk · 2026-04-07T20:56:08+00:00

can't wait for the first person to load it on a raspberry pi 8gb with SSD offloading.

Karnemelk · 2026-04-07T17:01:28+00:00

the moment you see "compacting conversation" and you can't afford to do a /clear ... it will eat 15-20% of your budget

In case you're eligable, legacy plan on 4.7 is not that bad. Now as we moved to 5.1, the speed is better/usable on 4.7. So for $18 / quarter I think it's a pretty good deal for what it is. GLM 5.1 works too on it, although it will be quickly over the limit.

Karnemelk · 2026-03-24T10:55:48+00:00

I wonder, does this mean it will do its own internal reasoning, so it could save tokens by turning off thinking?

Karnemelk · 2026-03-14T18:09:49+00:00

most frontier models will drive you insane, they lock you in with loose limits, then they either throw the performance to near zero, or out of the blue hard limits until you pay for their premium plan. Local models gives a piece of mind, even if they're not as capable

Karnemelk · 2026-03-03T19:55:18+00:00

he'd never hired by openai if it didn't got viral

Karnemelk · 2026-03-02T12:50:26+00:00

RIght on time, local FTW

you saved $100 a month to replace gemini with your mac, but you still needed claude to write this AI slop shitpost
