Greetings from SolCal...

GBurke59 on Cortex

I have known Greg for a decade, and he keeps calling Southern California "SolCal." It's not Solthern California, last I checked...

Maybe I should just let him be... NAH!

2023-2024 NFL SEASON KICKS OFF

That is certainly one way to sing the national anthem...

10 minutes of Bill Belichick talking about the evolution of the long-snapper position and special teams as a whole is solid content.

Holographic AI Jerry Jones will haunt AT&T Stadium until the end of time or whenever someone mercifully unplugs him.

That's right. My Super Bowl LVII prediction is for the Lions to beat the Browns 5-2.

Fine. I will cohost the Manningcast.

Starfield

Good to see a well-oiled machine working flawlessly with no bugs.

I am gonna take id Software's word for this.

Batwing? In Starfield? In this economy?

The Millenium Falcon? In Starfield? In this economy?

Thomas the Tank Engine? In Starfield? In this economy?

Building a new PC for Starfield? In this economy?

A Lusty Argonian Maid Planet? In Starfield? In this economy?

Caring about other people's pronouns? In Starfield? In this economy?

It's still real to Ozzie, damn it!

That boy went on to become the Mayor of Ohio.

My passion is vertical videos

Bouncy cars are cute.

I will buy this cream for $50.

Banger factory.

Take that, Karl Malone.

Wow! What an Apple peeler!

Respect the DJ, or get remixed into a diss track transition.

Life comes at mango trees fast.

Coach Prime got those boys cooking

Hit my theme music! LOL.

Travis Hunter is special.

Shedeur Sanders is getting tips from Tom Brady? No biggie.

Do you believe?

That dude is really something else. Go Colorado!

The Hylian Utility Vehicle in Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom

Need to get me one of them H.U.V.

Meanwhile in Florida...

Florida continues to Florida.

- We have learned quite a bit from the rollouts of Cortex, Shackpets, and Shouts.

Fixing a bug that affects displays of Like and Boost Buttons after clicking the Load More Stories Button

While it really sucks to see things you put a lot of time and care into creating not achieve success, they can be learning experiences. We hope to surprise and delight our supporters with our next project, and thank you to everyone who has used Shackpets or Cortex.

There you have it, Shacknews. Your Evening Reading for September 7, 2023. Please consider downloading Shackpets for free on Android and iOS. Here is a photo of Buffy to brighten your night.
