Hey Shacknews, it's time for Weekend Discussion. Let's officially close out our day of posting. Please take a look.

In case you missed it at Shacknews:

And now... Other Stuff From The Internet!!!

Stable Genius Elon Musk's Twitter is imploding again

Musk should stick to his day jobs. It appears that Musk is not being honest about the cause of this new policy either, as reports of Google Cloud billing issues and an internal DDOS caused by incompetence are circulating what remains of Twitter.

Shacknews Cortex is still a free platform that doesn't limit views. Just saying.

Lil Uzi Vert covers Chop Suey and Shinsuke Nakamura's WWE entrance music

It's real to Ozzie, damn it. But does Boogs get paid?

It's still real to Ozzie, damn it!

Best match ever.

This dude talks creepily, but he knows a lot about fast food

The Colonel is gonna get him for this.

If you needed further evidence of Nintendo not even trying this year

Besides the game being absolute trash, it is also allowing users to upload offensive images as profile pics. Sounds like Shacknews Cortex, tbh.

Mega Ran had Punk right where he wanted him...

Not a bad counter to the XYZ Trigger.

AJ Hawk with an important message

Hell yeah, AJ.

Apple Vision Pro is the most hideous Apple product ever made

Not surprised that the head of industrial design quit before unveiling this PS Vita of VR HMDs.
