Probably because they’re incapable of maintaining a distribution: https://manjarno.pages.dev/

Manjaro is not Arch based. They use pacman, but they use their own repositories. They create a ton of issues that way.

It’s still an LLM, not a “truth machine”. Replying with “did you make that up” will just cause it to respond with the next most likely tokens.

Try this: if you know it’s saying something factual, try your technique. It will likely “correct” itself by slightly rephrasing. Enough rephrasing might change the meaning of the sentence, but there’s nothing checking whether that’s factual before or after.

I’ve had some LLMs become extremely stubborn, and deny that it’s wrong on basic facts like the release year of certain media.
