My Ollama Model-Pull Script - Anti-Stall when downloading models

I got fed up that running ollama pull overnight still was resulting large models failing to download.

When I discovered I could download them faster if I cancelled every hour or whatever I decided I could automate it.

I've done a 3rd tweak with this (Originally written by chat-gpt :D) seems to be less buggy now thanks to claude :D
