minus-squareJasonDJ@lemmy.ziplinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up8·2 days agoMy kids got into Minecraft. I gave my oldest an old laptop. Put Kinoite on it. Now he prefers java edition. Minecraft doesn’t need much. It plays acceptably (for him) on a T460p…I think that’s like a 6th Gen i7…as long as he doesn’t go too crazy with mods.
