To be fair, it's hard to live without Wi-Fi.

    Like, are you imagining a modern US warship doesn’t have internet 24/7?

    last I checked, no, they don’t. they had shitty service while in port, and not much else.

    https://www.navytimes.com/news/your-navy/2023/12/29/new-in-2024-better-wi-fi-for-sailors/

    fuck mate they only recently started giving their people access ON SHORE.

    so no, I don’t think for the average sailor a US warship provides internet access 24/7

      That article is about wifi for personal use…

      And the second one is about it being free and you’re acting like they didn’t have Internet before then?

      so no, I don’t think for the average sailor a US warship provides internet access 24/7

      Yeah man, you have zero idea what people are talking about about.
