Are you aware of any current country or any country throughout history that has granted the government powers like this and hasn't been abused? I think you're mistaken to blame lack of accountability and lack of public oversight. I think it's simply not possible.

AtlanticThirdon 'Pervert glasses': Backlash against Meta's smart glasses grows

You're going to be disappointed. I wear them 24/7. I even sleep in them.

AtlanticThirdon 'Pervert glasses': Backlash against Meta's smart glasses grows

My assumption about the default use case is that people want to take normal pictures. For example, I wear them to sporting events, and it's a lot faster to take a picture of the action with my Meta glasses than with my iPhone.

Looks like other providers are around 50% higher cost https://openrouter.ai/deepseek/deepseek-v4-flash-0731#provid...

AtlanticThirdon US airlines are pushing to remove protections for passengers and add more fees

Or we can treat people equally and not discriminate based on whether or not they have kids

He said had to, as in necessities. No one has to go on vacations, much less fly for them

AtlanticThirdon US airlines are pushing to remove protections for passengers and add more fees

Hmmm didn't realize families had to go on vacation, and even more so they had to do it by flying

I didn't do these things for economic reasons growing up, and I'm perfectly fine today

I have medical issues that require me to fly first class. It's not a choice. I don't expect you to pay for it

AtlanticThirdon US airlines are pushing to remove protections for passengers and add more fees

What do you mean there is no cost? Aisle and window seats are more valuable and can be sold for more, and this would force airlines to sell them to families without any up charge they would've received from other customers

AtlanticThirdon US airlines are pushing to remove protections for passengers and add more fees

I don't think that's what anyone wants. I think they just want families with young children to pay to sit together, like everyone else has to

AtlanticThirdon It is worth it to buy the fast CPU

Lying about a laptop being stolen is black and white. I'm not sure how you are trying to say that is ambiguous.

I don't know what the hell you mean by the term unreasonable. Are you under the impression that investment banking analysts do not think they will have to work late before they take the role?

AtlanticThirdon Gemini 2.5 Deep Think

Upgraded and quickly hit my limit. And find that they have limits, I just wish that they were more transparent. Even if it's just a vague statement about limited usage. I assumed it would be similar to regular Gemini 2.5 on the pro plan but it's not

You're the one that came in and told him about the "factor in your math". Like you said, it's his comparison, not yours. If you want to do your own comparison, feel free. But don't come in and tell him he's not allowed to do his comparison. I for one like is comparison.
