ChatGPT Plus users, you will be saved.🍓 dear beloved friends, GPT-6.2 Sol might genuinely be the best thing to happen to the $20 plan in ages im hearing that sol is significantly better than opus 5.5 while somehow using almost no usage at all 😭 and yes, even with that stupid 5 hour window we might actually be able to use a frontier model for HOURS without checking our remaining limits every 10 minutes like some fucking addicts never thought id say this but openai might actually make plus worth paying for again what beautiful times we live in my friends!

In 1970, a 20-year-old soldier came home from Vietnam, walked into an airport bathroom, and changed out of his uniform. So nobody would know where he'd been. He never told anyone. Not for 55 years. This spring, a Japanese flight attendant watched him finally come home. Her name is Erika. She was one of my wife's students in Tokyo, a long time ago. Now she's 34, and she flies for an American airline out of Atlanta. A coworker asked her to volunteer for something called an Honor Flight. "You'll never forget it," she said. Erika didn't really know what it was. An Honor Flight takes old veterans to Washington, D.C., to see their memorials. One day. Free. They fly out in the morning and come home that night. The plane was full of men between 75 and 96. Wheelchairs. Canes. Oxygen. Hats covered in pins. And they were terrible. In the best way. The Army guys and the Navy guys argued for two hours about which branch was better. Nobody won. Nobody ever has. A 94-year-old Korean War veteran called all the Vietnam vets "the kids." A 96-year-old Marine asked Erika to marry him before the seatbelt sign went off. She politely declined. He said, "Your loss, sweetheart," and fell asleep. Except for the man in 22C. His name was Lonnie. 76. Army. He sat by the window and didn't say a word. Everyone else wore a veteran's cap. They gave Lonnie one too. He put it in his jacket pocket and kept wearing his old feed-store cap. His son had signed him up. Lonnie almost didn't come. In Washington, at the Vietnam memorial, there's a long black wall with 58,000 names on it. Erika watched Lonnie walk along it until he found one. Then he put his hand flat against the stone. He stood like that for an hour. He didn't move. He didn't speak. The other men left him alone. They knew. On the flight home, there's a tradition. It's called Mail Call. Without telling the veterans, their families collect letters for them. From children, grandchildren, old friends, strangers, schoolkids who've never met them. Then, somewhere over the country, the crew calls out their names, one by one, and hands each man a thick envelope. Grown men who had survived wars sat there opening letters from third graders, and fell apart. "Dear Soldier, thank you for your service. I hope you were not too scared. I would be scared. Love, Brayden, age 8." "Dear Veteran, thank you for keeping us free. My dog's name is Freedom too." Lonnie's envelope was the thickest on the plane. He read every letter. Slowly. Folded each one back exactly the way it came. Then he got to the last one. A small envelope. Handwriting he knew. He held it for a long time without opening it. His son, in the next seat, quietly told Erika: "That's from my sister. They haven't spoken in eleven years." Lonnie opened it. It was one line. "Daddy, I'll be at the airport." He put his hand over his mouth and turned toward the window. His whole body was shaking. His son put an arm around him. Neither of them said anything for the rest of the flight. They landed at ten o'clock at night. Erika assumed a few families would be waiting. When the doors opened at the end of the jet bridge, the noise hit the plane before the men did. Two thousand people. At ten o'clock on a weeknight. Lined up on both sides of the terminal, as far as she could see. Bagpipes. A high school marching band in full uniform. Boy Scouts. Little kids on their dads' shoulders. Grandmas holding handmade signs. Young soldiers in uniform, standing at attention. And every single one of them, as each old man came through, was reaching out a hand and saying the same two words. "Welcome home." "Welcome home, sir." "Welcome home." Over and over. For an hour. To strangers. Lonnie was the last one off the plane. Halfway up the jet bridge, he stopped. He reached into his jacket pocket and took out the veteran's cap he had refused to wear all day. He looked at it. Then he took off his old feed-store cap, put the veteran's cap on, and straightened it with both hands. Then he walked out. Two thousand strangers cheered for him like he had just won a war. And at the very end of that long line, holding a sign she'd clearly made at a kitchen table, was a woman about forty-five years old. The sign said, "WELCOME HOME DADDY." Erika told my wife she cried so hard she had to go stand behind the gate desk. She said something else, too. I've been thinking about it ever since. "In Japan, when a country makes a mistake, it apologizes. Carefully. Formally. Once. In America, two thousand strangers came to an airport at ten o'clock at night to fix a mistake they didn't make. Fifty-five years late. And they did it like it was the most natural thing in the world." In 1970, a young man walked into an airport bathroom a soldier, and walked out pretending he wasn't. This spring, on a jet bridge in Atlanta, an old man put his cap back on. And walked out one.
