This is Jerry Lawson. He invented the video game cartridge for the Fairchild Channel F system. Because of his invention, many consoles had cartridges and CD formats and would become the norm.

The Atari 2600, NES, Genesis, and many consoles wouldn't exist without him.

Happy Black History Month.

I had a calculus teacher in high school that absolutely loved Rob Schneider in the early 2000s. I wonder what he's up to nowadays.

There's a World Series of Poker but why isn't there a World Series of Craps. Much higher stakes!

Going through the Wes Anderson Archive I got from the @criterion.bsky.social . Other than some video and audio glitches in Bottle Rocket around the diner scene halfway through, really enjoyable watch.

Nintendo actually waits for 2025 to end before it wraps you up. I had a good amount of SteamDeck time this year.

Somebody should do a “60 Minutes” on “60 Minutes” but Bari Weiss would scrap that too.

I'm only halfway through making my list of top movies of 2025, but I looked back at my old list of top movies of 2024, and pulled the top 10. Other than me ranking V/H/S Beyond higher than I would now, I'm pretty happy with these.

Only watched one movie so far this year. #letterboxdfriday

Mamma Roma was a really good classic movie and of course I had to start off the new year with Heat.
