Weekend Discussion - January 7, 2024

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

Your daily dose of sudoku

Welcome to a brand new year, everyone. Let's start off the first weekend the right way, with some puzzle solving. Sit back and relax as Simon solves a sudoku.

The crossover I didn't know I needed

Simon from Cracking the Cryptic on Numperphile? This is my nerdy dream come true. Let's listen to him talk about the Phistomephel Ring.

Jet Set Radio Future is a masterpiece, here's a doco about it

Video game documentaries are great. Jet Set Radio Future is one of my favorite games and it's been so damn long since its release. Hopefully SEGA delivers something excellent.

And now... Other Stuff From The Internet!

How are your valuations going?

RomSteady has some things to fix

Coding is just a skill I don't think I'll ever grasp.

Alan Wake 2 is a masterpiece

I cannot wait to see what's next.

When TJ can't sleep, he thinks

The man's mind is a palace of wild ideas and thoughts.
