🚨 I’m Canceling My GPT-6 Astra Plus Plan
I love Astra, but the current usage limits don't make sense for me
Astra can burn through a huge chunk of your weekly usage in a single session
Heavy users are getting hit the hardest
$100–$200 Pro plans remain exempt for now I can’t justify paying more just to get reasonable access
Astra is insanely capable
But if I can’t actually use it when I need it, what’s the point?
Anyone else thinking about canceling their Astra plan?
Alice Weidel becomes the first leader in the world who is anti-immigration but has an immigrant wife, is anti-LGBTQ+ but is a lesbian herself, opposes LGBT adoption but has adopted two children, and is a hardcore German nationalist but lives in Switzerland
I just bought a new phone Motorola swirl back in the day and my dad forgot his phone at church so I went to get it. I left the new phone in the car and it was locked. I came back and never saw my phone again. Someone in church stole it.
Fun fact. If you use Astra Ultra on a new $200 Max plan and use goal on a big project. It'll run non stop for 22 hours, 37 minutes, and 59 seconds before running out for the week. Amazing.
A California homeowner is facing major fines for growing a lush 'food forest' in his yard.
Michael Sherman, a 49-year-old landscape contractor in Chino, California, replaced his traditional front lawn in 2019 with a productive garden of sweet potatoes, squash, bananas, and passion fruit.
Prompted by rising grocery costs and concerns over chemical pesticides, Sherman designed the edible oasis to feed his family and share fresh produce with his neighbors.
However, the urban-farming initiative has turned into a legal battleground. Despite Chino’s official city motto being 'Where everything grows,' local code enforcement hit Sherman with a $750 fine in April 2026 for 'overgrown vegetation,' followed by a $500 fine in August, with threats of additional penalties if he does not dismantle the project.
The dispute highlights a growing national clash between traditional suburban aesthetic standards and modern sustainability movements. While some neighbors rallied around Sherman's eco-friendly initiative, others complained to the city, calling the yard an eyesore and raising concerns about potential pests. City officials ordered Sherman to cut back his crops, maintain pedestrian lines of sight, and keep plants at least 15 feet away from neighboring properties. Refusing to easily back down, Sherman has trimmed some of the vegetation to meet safety guidelines but plans to appeal the other citations, expressing frustration over the government's heavy-handed interference. 'I don't trust the system,' Sherman stated, arguing that homeowners should have the right to grow their own food without facing bureaucratic penalties.
