realize you're still caught in the hamster wheel of capitalism and all you did is moot

call it whataboutism (not directed towards your comment, but related): every time i'm in a discussion involving graffiti and people complain about it i ask about advertisements plastered though the city - people just shrug

can't speak about the other applications, however, unless your 6 year old is exceptional, i'd go for point and click adventures of the humongous entertainment ilk instead of sim city https://store.steampowered.com/search/?developer=Humongous%2...

Mostly seen younger children having a problem with 3D games, because they have to manage both the movement of the character as well as the camera perspective. I feel like below 6 years, they have a hard time wrapping their heads around it / master the controls.

Having said that, Mario Kart 8 is really a good choice (despite it being 3D): * it almost drives itself in 50cc cups * it has 4 types of cups, which gradually get harder * it's great fun alone and in coop * it has great challenges: win the cup/ win all races

if it's not about co-op, but about letting your kid drive and _you_ sitting in the passenger seat, i can highly recommend the titles from https://www.humongous.com/games They are like interactive cartoons with some mini games thrown in. Basically old school point and click adventures for kids.

> react provides an even better interface for ajax

how does react provide an interface for ajax? react does literally no calls at all...

I feel like 50% of the people complaining in this thread have never touched react or their last interaction with frontend code was jquery 15 years ago and they're still carrying those learned paradigms around and applying them to every new framework/ frontend lib they come across

In what way is react related to ajax calls? I don't get it :(

If you like being surprised by games once in a decade, you should play it. Not saying more for fear of spoilers :)

source? "tbh" and "I think" is cool and all, however I could also just throw out things I believe

Would be nice to know where you get your information from, that RN isn't core to Meta

ok, so there is no way to run XBox Gamepass games straight from the Deck (sans streaming) :(

I'm scared to even mention it - considering it can be very addictive, but have you checked out Vampire Survivors?

i have to admit it felt weird as a non-us person, when the airplane pa system mentioned, that someone from the armed forces was also riding along and calling out that person by name and the subsequent clapping...
