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.

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

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...

I wish they would add a ZDR endpoint on OpenRouter

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

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'm fine subsidizing necessities for kids, but flying is a luxury

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

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

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

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?

I agree with the theme of your message, but it's actually very challenging legally to change an options expiration date after its issued, and likely has negative tax implications

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

> Compared to every other developed democracy in the planet, the US is politically unstable with its two party democracy.

I don't think this holds up to any sort of scrutiny. Brexit, plenty of other examples across the world
