I think the key phrase here is, "an obscure small town." There may only be a single mention of this place, hence the only one on which a response can be based. This says more about the user's understanding of LLMs than it does about LLMs.

"Tell me everything you know about (obscure small town), (state). Only what's unique to (town), not commonly-known facts" is an excellent way to test for hallucinatory tendencies in a new model, in my experience. Likely the best I've found.
Quality of results is almost linearly proportional to the size of the model in many cases. The largest models like K3 and GLM 5.3 will either confine their responses to known true facts about the town and its surroundings, or admit they don't have enough information to answer. Smaller ones will reliably make up hilarious or downright-strange things.
Another good test is https://whatever.scalzi.com/2025/12/13/ai-a-dedicated-fact-f... , which still works on the newest models. Of the open-weight models available, only Kimi K3 will consistently admit it has no idea who Scalzi's novel is dedicated to. The rest still make up random stuff and present it confidently.
TL,DR: progress is possible, and it has been made, but it's happening slower than many people think.
Not if he controls the funds. Tax deductions are only afforded to contributions if they are charitable and am actual gift. If the contributor benefits, it is bit deductible, and control of donated funds is a benefit, as is the ability to direct funds to a particular person or persons.
It lists other options. It also lists other operating systems that don't use systemd.
I think what I hate most about systemd is that it has seemingly indoctrinated so many into believing that there are no viable alternatives, only some random mess of unintegrated incomplete long abandoned half-baked subsystems.
You could be right. But plenty of websites with useful information intentionally obfuscate their pages to trick the browser into disabling reader mode.
I tend to despise senders that believe email is always an effective real-time channel. Delays happen for all sorts of reasons, ranging from massive outages to scanning incoming emails for spam or malware (my corporate email is sloooow).
Greylisting has been so effective for my personal email, I don't mind waiting a bit on the rare occasion (by now, most senders are already recognized). And on the rare occasion I get spam, it's been cathartic, adding a rule to reject the sender with a quippy SMTP eerror. It's also been easy enough just to forward it to abuse@google.com, because it's almost always from Gmail.
We replaced VHS with DVDs. It took 42 years before we gave up on VHS. DVDs have been around for 29 years but were mostly replaced with BDs before disappearing off the shelves in favor of streaming.
We replaced records with tapes, tapes with more tapes, and more tapes with CDs before they, too, disappeared from the shelves in favor of streaming. Except that some stalwarts have successfully resurrected vinyl.
We replaced AM with FM, and analog radio with digital radio, then streaming. We replaced broadcast analog TV with digital, then cable and satelite, then streaming. Mostly.
None of these changes were backwards compatible, and all of them were meant for the general public. They took a while. They were successful.
Anyone who bought DVD player immediately had the benefits of better quality. The same applies to all other examples.
The problem with IPv6 is that you don't get benefits. If the designed protocol needs an equivalent of big bang, it's doomed. ASCII->UTF8 didn't need big bang. x86 to Itanium needed big bang.
Why would CGNAT be deployed as a response to IPv6 on mobile? I don't understand the logic there. CGNAT is deployed due to a shortage of publicly routable IPv4 addresses. IPv6 was introduced due to having much larger publicly routable space.
No, CGNAT (Carrier-Grade NAT - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carrier-grade_NAT) is an IPv4 only thing. https://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc6598 specifies they should use 100.64.0.0/10 for it, to avoid conflicting with the pre-existing private-use ranges. IPv6 removes the need for using CGNAT, as each home router is allocated a public IP (rather than a CGNAT IP) on its public link.
No, CGNAT has absolutely nothing to do with IPv6. CGNAT is nothing more than ISPs not providing a public IP to the gateway on your LAN (i.e. your router). To avoid conflicts with existing ranges, a new ranges for that purpose was allocated. There are different technologies to enable IPv4<->IPv6, none of which care about the existence of CGNAT.
No, NAT64 was invented so v6-only hosts could access v4-only resources. CGNAT was invented so v4 hosts can have a v4 address without having to purchase limited public address space.
