Venba is a video game created to kill me specifically and it is very successful at it

The AI bubble is ripe for popping and the ubiquity of AI is on track to explode.

I'm starting to evaluate projects like these more closely

Steve’s Music Store in Toronto opens its doors one last time | CBC News The Steve’s Music Store location in the Queen Street W. neighbourhood is shutting its doors after nearly five decades of bringing music lovers in Toronto together.

I've only been in here twice or thrice, but I've recommended it to so many musicians over the years.

Simply knowing that it's around used to be an indescribable comfort.

Thanks for everything Steve's.

Venba 플레이했고

이민자 부모님 서사라는거 알아서
울거 같았지만
진짜 매 챕터가 너무 내 부모님 얘기같아서
ㅎ ㅏ............심정적으로 타격이 매 챕터마다.......
아들이 불꽃효도해서 밥상 다 식었을때 진짜 ㅎ ㅏ 멱살잡고 싶었음
워어 워어 진정해 내 얘기가 아니야
하지만 내 얘기이기도 하다
나는 Venba에 등장한 아들같진 않았을지도 모르지만
우리 부모님이 미국살면서 하는 모든 고생들과 인종차별들은
우리가족의 얘기기도 하기에......

Found myself really immersed in 'Venba' (2023). I can't speak from a personal standpoint, but I like to think the themes it was trying to get across were handled with care.

Found myself caring for the characters and their struggles.

The cooking aspects were very fun to play and the music bopped.

It's causing much Hate of the Union

Posting this late Valentine’s Day art here!! #venba #fanart

Because Venba isn't localized, there's a genre of reviews that go like:

"Didn't understand what was happening, but the game left me very hungry".

It might be my favourite genre of Venba reviews.

I am convinced that Artists, Politicians and Philosophers can not simultaneously do those things for a living and produce soulful work.
There is an inherent conflict of interest.

What other categories fall under this rule?

* getting paid for thing ≠ doing thing for a living

Venba is 60% off on sale as part of Global Food Faire and is only 5$!!!

For the price of pre-pandemic latte, you can now get the BAFTA winning game about cooking lost recipes and restoring relationships!

Btw, this track Scarborough Night from Venba is a tribute to Toronto's best borough. 💜

If you haven't seen Scarborough you haven't really seen Toronto.

Either way, most of the real world adoption of AI will be AFTER the bubble pops.
Much like how most of the modern internet was built after the dotcom bubble popped.

It's becoming clear that Big AI's only remaining strategy is to try and integrate itself with as many employers and institutional entities as quickly as possible so that when the bubble inevitably pops, they can make the case that they are structurally important enough for a bailout.

Before AI could generate images, folks used to post prompts on social media and we'd all collectively imagine it in our heads.

Venba
Fantastic, concise, touching and extremely relatable little game.
Go talk to your parents; unless they are absolute assholes, in that case fuck em, fly high brother.

Me defending my Windows machine running @flstudio.bsky.social with 4gb ram and a usb mic in front of industry peers:

If you want a cool puzzle game that makes you feel, i HIGHLY recommend Venba. It's Cooking Mama by way of Orba Dinn.
You inherit a generational cook book, but it's falling apart. You have to recreate the recipes using context clues.

Good to see Duck Duck Go bringing a more sensible approach to the playground.
