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.

My favorite aircraft is the F117, and I've been trying to see one in person for almost a decade. I finally had an excuse to go to the museum of the Air Force:

Multiple cities reporting that ICE raids have begun.

My beige flag is that every time I walk into someone's living room, I wonder if I should tell them about how there's a recommended viewing distance for TVs.

Made a synthetic fingerprint generator that runs in the browser! You can download them as SVGs. Used a 20-year-old algo called SFinGe that hasn't gotten much love these days. I think they look really goood!!!!

I'm still working on dialing in the fiber laser settings, and haven't had much luck. It seems like the second I cut all the way through the copper the FR4 chars extensively.

On DT forum the user ewpratten wrote a blog about storing private ssh keys on his implant. I think that is a fun concept.
You can of course use a rfid ring or a card or a toy-2-life maybe :)

Anyway, its a fun hack!

I purchased a 30W fiber laser and I've been very slowly learning how to use it. I'm trying to etch PCBs so I've been working on getting the settings dialed in. I have a long way to go but starting to get usable results.

I've really been enjoying the Secret Level series. The renderings are gorgeous and the stories really interesting.

In 1994, a math professor discovered that Intel's Pentium chip sometimes gave the wrong answer when dividing. Fixing this "FDIV" bug cost Intel $475 million. I analyzed the Pentium chip and found the bug. 1/N

I have been craving prime rib, and Christmas dinner was the perfect excuse to make it. I also made a creamy horseradish sauce and roasted brussels.

Great games teach you things about yourself. Today, for example, in Caves of Qud, I learned that I was not brave enough to "invoke the Chaos Spiel", not knowing what it would entail. I now feel regret.

I can be overwhelmed or underwhelmed, but I can’t be whelmed.

Or, at least, I think theoretically I could but the way I have set up my life seems to have made it very difficult.

I would love to spend more of my life whelmed. Someone whelm me.

I don't know who needs to hear this, but you don't need to justify your reading preferences and choices to anyone. Audiobooks count as reading. Also, you don't have to finish books you don't enjoy. Don't read to impress, read for yourself. Life's too short, love yourself, ok?
