Minecraft is an amazing game and truly is a modern version of Legos! I’ve seen normally withdrawn, below average children become sociable, intelligent kids in the course of just a few years after playing Minecraft almost every day. I believe it helps kids to understand mathematics, physics, architecture, increase spatial awareness, and on multiplayer servers, learn social skills.
I run a Minecraft server on my home network, and I get friends, mostly adults, who spend a lot of time building mammoth structures. It’s great for people of all ages!
Is that the Ocean Beach that is a part of the city of San Diego?
Yours too?
I met the woodshed that day...
I was not let out for a while.
kgtv channel 10 is from san diego..so yes it probably is the Ocean Beach in San Diego
They never said he didn’t do that as well. We are moving toward a tech economy. Brick and mortars are going the way of buggy whips. This kid is using and honing his special skills. Not all kids are meant to be outdoorsy. Mine are, but they also like the tech stuff. Kudos to this kid for finding his calling so early so that he can really excel in his future tech carreer!
*career
Just guessing this family need not bother with parental locks on the tv or internet...LMAO
Nice work kid!
“haha Just chalk that up to training for the inevitable Zombiepocalypse...”
Though, Xbox has more vulnerabilities than just that one. And if you know how to solder...
If you pee on it, it can crap out!
I hear ya...I just don’t like it.
What is that generation going to do, once our infrastructure is completely compromised? They’re going to have to go back and learn how to use a tool or fish or hunt later, once they are adverse to those things. I believe it would be easier to learn the tech skills later versus the opposite.
It’s kids like him perfecting his skills that are fine. It’s the lumps of goo gaming all day and night without any original thought that worry me.
