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 think today I had my first instance of somebody assuming some artwork was AI-generated because it had a .ai file extension.
That's the file extension Adobe Illustrator has used since 1987.

The assumption that it is fine to update your app whenever you feel like it is absolute trash. I'm on a train. Don't want to download Discord right now. It just downloads a cavalcade of updates. At least when slow give me me a skip button. I'm trying to use the damn thing.
