I did some checking around on the web and it seems that the partnership is a standard API license where Perplexity provides the technical infrastructure and Truth Social makes requests to there. The AI does contradict Trump regularly according to the Washington post: https://www.washingtonpost.com/technology/2025/08/10/truth-social-trump-ai-chatbot-perplexity/

So I’m not sure if this is massively wrong. Or at least, not as bad as I thought it would be.

Goshdarnit, and I was really enjoying perplexity and its relatively low hallucinations and good sourcing of information.

Yup, there seems to be misinformation there. Even perplexity gets it wrong, but does say there’s some inconsistency between websites.

I installed MX on an old Acer tablet/laptop Hybrid. It’s one of the few that would run due to its 32bit bootloader but 64bit system. It works fine, but I wasn’t blown away either.

Your security, is the connection to the outside world safe?

What about security? How easy is it to crack?

You overestimate the adaptability of the average software stack. I worked at companies where even adding another button to the cart screen was a monumental undertaking

Been there, done that. I also went to the Lenovo Legion Linux discord server. All great people, but their advanced solutions didn’t work either. Even people with exactly the same model didn’t have this issue. I have no idea what it could be, maybe something hardware related.

I said in my previous comment an RTX3060 and an iGPU. I tried with the iGPU, without the iGPU, switching them, hybrid mode. Nvidia drivers, nouveau drivers, it’s always the same.

I wrote a post on it some time ago: https://feddit.nl/post/34127250

Funny thing is, on my laptop there’s an issue with Linux and browsers. Any video or animation, even little animations, runs at like 3fps. This makes using a browser virtually impossible.

Everything else works well, but that just doesn’t make Linux an option for me right now. I tried a variety of browsers and distros. It’s really frustrating. It’s not even a bad laptop, Lenovo Legion 5 pro RTX3060.

What codebase?

Where do you live?

I like the work culture in the Netherlands, on the whole, there’s a focus on work/life balance. I get to spend a day per week with my kids and I only lose 30% of the pay of that day.

After I spend those days, which are 45 total, I can still spend a day in the week with my kid, unpaid. But my boss cannot block me from doing that and needs to keep my 40 hour contract intact for when I want to resume my full-time work.

Also I don’t actually lose 20% of my pay, but due to government help I lose about 12% doing this unpaid day.

I use perplexity as my main go to if i want to use an LLM, since they have access to a wide scale of models. It was correct in the cases you mentioned. It’s a tool focused on correctness of information and I’ve had it hallucinate a lot less than other tools.

Give it a shot if you’re looking for one that focuses on correctness of information. It searches the Web and then feeds the results into the model you choose.

You can also tell it to only use academic papers, social discussions, or SEC filings.

I’ve not seen an ad in years, so they can try to monetize me but will fail spectacularly

And the crawling of flash websites is awful

The result now is that no website will load because the rest of the world will have broadband anyway

There’s usually buses from villages into the major cities though, it live in one and there’s a bus every hour to go to a nearby city, from where I can then take a train. I wouldn’t say it’s that bad

Can still be very pretty though. I use it to set scenes and show characters for my dungeons and dragons campaign.

It’s not weird. When a small company does something like this they lose users and it could damage them. Google doesn’t care because they know people will use them no matter what.
