I asked about a plot point that I didn’t understand in a TV series old enough to be in an LLM’s knowledge. Chatgpt and Perplexity both said they couldn’t find any discussions or explanations online for my particular question.
Bard/Gemini gave several explanations, all of them featuring characters, locations, and situations from the show, but confidently bullshit and definitely impossible in the story’s world.
Yep, same here. Whereas ChatGPT and Perplexity would tell me it didn’t know the answer to my question, Bard/Gemini would confidently hallucinate some bullshit.
Yes, I should’ve added - whether the write speed matters depends on your own use case.
For my SMR drive, it’s taking roughly 2GB of backup files every few hours, in the background, and there’s plenty of empty space on the drive. In my case, it doesn’t matter at all.
However, if you’re sat at your computer, frequently transferring large files while the drive is at least half full, and you have to wait for completion… Then it’ll matter.

They probably colocate at data centres.
Personally, I’m on Hetzner’s Storage Share (Nextcloud but without Collabora), and I’d prefer to trust my data to them: https://www.hetzner.com/storage/storage-share/
Regardless of your choice, I definitely agree that nextcloud rocks.
Not French, I don’t understand a word of what they’re saying, but man, I love that album. Especially “Demain, c’est loin”, an epic tune that gives me Wu Tang “Triumph” vibes.
This government is really good at doing something to solve our problems. It’s a shame that the ‘something’ is usually easily circumvented and was poorly concocted so it looks like they’re being tough on some perceived problem.
Trying to work out why this is a good idea. Please could you explain why?
Thanks all for your replies!
I understand social security to mean paying into a state pension, a national healthcare service, and provision of education.
What does social security mean in the American context?
Pi-hole (or my preference Adguard Home) is great for devices connected to your home network. For your phone, go with Blokada (free) or Adguard (iOS, Android, paid - see Stacksocial for occasional license deals) - that’ll cover you at home and out of home.
Thank you @[email protected] for asking these questions, and for everyone giving answers. I was trying to plan out my proxmox installation, and you’ve all pointed me in the right direction.
Surely with so many cake me signs, there’s a strong chance that he’d be ‘very accurate’ anyway.
I used to Google for help, but the thing about Google is you have to know the correct technical terms, but when learning Linux, there are many unknown unknowns. And then you have to trawl through am the answers.
Now, any time I enter a command and get errors, or if I don’t understand something in the logs, I’ll copy paste it into perplexity.ai - if necessary, it’ll ask for clarification. But mostly, it’ll suggest various causes and solutions, with explanation.
This is more like anti-vaxxers scamming themselves and others, and the so-called scammers are just providing the required service.
