Zoblok @zoblok.bsky.social · 09/08/2026'Looks good! It's slightly hard to watch that video, because the characters are so far away for most of it. The Steam link does show them up close. 010 0

Zoblok @zoblok.bsky.social · 18/07/2026If the Chinese can change their jobs, they're not slaves. Low wages make them paupers (well, we all are, if your standard is sensitive enough). You could use a broader definition of slavery that means "the act of someone owning your life" in which case, reducing the workweek would mitigate that. 110 0
Zoblok @zoblok.bsky.social · 18/07/2026The last 60 years of history have made it clear that if you want Chinese employers to pay workers more, you should buy more of their goods. Wanting to boycott them creates the risk that you'd actually like the workers to not exist at all. 110 0
Zoblok @zoblok.bsky.social · 02/07/2026Ideally, games would be published on a credit card, and PCs would have an accompanying slot. 110 0
Zoblok @zoblok.bsky.social · 29/06/2026It's great to see top-down games where the perspective is carefully done. You can see the top side of everything. Objects are not excessively portraitized. 010 0
Zoblok @zoblok.bsky.social · 23/06/2026Cool! You should show the game's logo at the end of the video - that'll make it a lot more like an N64 game's commercial. 000 0
Zoblok @zoblok.bsky.social · 20/06/2026It wouldn't matter if South Africa and Botswana's GDPs were both $1 billion. That's not the point. South Africa is a good example of a country where the people are "numb to high income inequality". It's the amount of "numbness" that people are afraid of. 000 0
Zoblok @zoblok.bsky.social · 20/06/2026A labor collapse is a testable claim. If it were true, we'd expect an income inequality spike. Although not a perfect metric, we'd expect the US Gini coefficient to go from 0.41 to anything higher. We don't need AI to imagine this. South Africa and Botswana have already been this way for years. 110 0
Zoblok @zoblok.bsky.social · 20/06/2026If the world runs out of jobs, be happy, because the realization of your individualist desires would then not require any more hiring either. 120 0
Zoblok @zoblok.bsky.social · 20/06/2026No no no - you don't understand - that dog is trying to demonstrate the thesis of Simulacra and Simulation, in which so many canine products contain symbols that have no similarities to the entities that inspired them. 172 0

Zoblok @zoblok.bsky.social · 12/06/2026PS3 had too many games about sexy guys in dark jackets, walking around in the rain at night, looking for a box to break, or a car to get inside of. 120 0
Zoblok @zoblok.bsky.social · 12/06/2026On a PC, you can do whatever you want with it. It helps if the game doesn't generically impose its controls. 000 0

Zoblok @zoblok.bsky.social · 06/06/2026But... it is kind of how it works. The history of Smash suggests that Nintendo wants to maintain a Japan-centric focus with its characters. Banjo & Kazooie feel "formerly Japanese" to them. Master Chief does not. Nintendo was also not excited to bring back Link in the Soul Calibur 2 updates. 000 0
Zoblok @zoblok.bsky.social · 05/06/2026Nintendo didn't look at Banjo & Kazooie as Microsoft properties, but rather as former Nintendo ones. 000 0

Zoblok @zoblok.bsky.social · 04/06/2026The N64 controller can be more comfortable than a standard one, if the game has 2 moves that fit well on shoulder buttons, but also requires a central holding move. But, you have to hold it a certain way to get all 3. 010 0
Zoblok @zoblok.bsky.social · 04/06/2026No defense is needed, only the controller liberty itself. 010 0
Zoblok @zoblok.bsky.social · 03/06/2026You're right. Technically, the correct term is "gay gladness" or "gay delight" or "okay with being gay". 100 0
Zoblok @zoblok.bsky.social · 03/06/2026It's one level deeper than that. Technically, no one ever truly has control over anything. You can be glad you make good choices, but pride and shame never make sense. 000 0
Zoblok @zoblok.bsky.social · 03/06/2026It's interesting how, when people find a version of something that's smaller, they'll think of it as cute, rather than rushing to a word like "austere" or "meager". 010 0
