having been in combat, with electronic gear designed for the military, i can say this will be a million percent terrible. it's gonna be too heavy (already they carry too much- i have degenerated discs as do many of my buds) and will break constantly. to say nothing of keeping it charged- who wants range anxiety in a combat situation.
now i will say that going to Iraq radicalized me against war and i filed as a conscientious objector, but back in those days right after 9/11 there wasn't much of an antiwar movement.
requires paying humans wages and that is unacceptable! also it only costs ten million times more than a paper poster and it goes into CapEx not OpEx so the government gives it preferential tax treatment
bing or duck duck go, too. i just say googling because it sounds stupid as shit to say anything else. DDG is my default search engine. kagi isn't much better, and comes with its own issues
honestly LLMs are about a thousand times more useful than Google at this point. Every week i try googling and get nothing but spam results.
for example just yesterday i was searching for how to reclaim some wasted space on one of my devices. so i searched on Google and tried 8 different pages that were ad-riddled hell holes.
i gave up and spent 10 seconds with an LLM and got the answer i needed. i will admit that i had to tell it to quit bullshitting me at one point but i got what i needed. and no ads.
you can still buy and use the classic remotes too! here's the first one i found on ebay: https://www.ebay.com/itm/143752434103
