Kids these days

[Sat1600]

So my 4 year old likes to listen to music on our amazon echo. He asks Alexa for whatever song he wants. Yesterday he made a request. Alexa responded with "I am having trouble connecting to the internet right now. So without asking anyone, our 4 YEAR OLD, went over to the router, unplugged it plugged it back in waited for the lights to come back on and made the request again. 4 years old. Lol

I work in IT and I've lost count how many times a simple reboot has fixed the user's problem.  Your kid has already developed basic troubleshooting skills at 4 years old.  I have high hopes for your kid

Sharp kid.

Already on the way to knowing the first standard basic of IT troubleshooting.

He didn't even try the same thing 3 times expecting a different result, before turning it off and back on?

 

Kid's advanced.

I expected this to be negative and to be able to say "As one of these days' kids, I agree."  This works too.

 

Ps.  That kid gonna go far.

speaking of fortnite, personal opinion, one of the most disappoint thing about american culture is this: 

 

some animation artist at epic "accidently"added jiggling physics on the chest of female characters' model, later they issued an apology and removed it. why you apology for something literally half the population have, meanwhile killing players with realistic weapon s and firearms is a okay?

If you live in America, much more than half  (just joking because NZ is pretty high up there)

It wasn't an apology for having boobs. It was because of the jiggle. People gave back lash for the over sexualization of a game that mainly kids play. You have a great point about the violence though. It's really up to each country, "pick your poison" so to speak. Some countries are more sensitive about violence and think that sexual content is negligible. Other countries are the opposite.

Isn't that moot point? Jiggling is based on physics, physics (as well as jiggling) exist in real life.

If someone does not like realism, they can eat a cactus

im not saying we should banning violent games like back in early 90s where they banning mortal kombat etc. in fact im all okay with guns, blood, harsh language, gore and nudity and such, hell i even thinks not enogh games companies tried to move into hbo territory. i'm all for steam's decision to include adult games.

 

but the thing is, if i ever have a child/children, i would keep games with these elements from them, especially with pvp content. not even cartoony like fortnite and overwatch. witcher 3 however i think it's totally fine, the nudity scene is frankly minimum, i generally dont think it's a bad thing to teach kids things about their bodies.
