The U.S. spent $30 billion to ditch textbooks for laptops and tablets: The result is the first generation less cognitively capable than their parents | Fortune Neuroscientist Jared Cooney Horvath said older generations “screwed up” giving students access to so much technology: “I genuinely hope Gen Z quickly figures that out and gets mad.”

Now THAT's a headline.

I was just researching and comparing all the different ports of the excellent #Rayman 2 a few days ago, so getting a new upscaled version on the Switch is a very welcome surprise! #TonicTrouble is an offbeat and funny platformer that, despite its flaws, would also be fun to go back to.
