Jerry Lawson, African American engineer who pioneered the video game cartridge
Looks like a nice guy. I wonder how big his cock is and if he banged white wives.
What a pleasant looking fellow. Would play vidya with.
Thanks mr lawson, I like carts. Nice and chunky, feels good to hold and it's not as fragile as a disc usually. Still damage prone on the contacts but eh, the rest is sturdy.
When I see "lawson" though I'm reminded of the Japanese store chain and all the random video game collabs they had. The best one was where Nikki (swapnote) and Ashley (WW) dressed up as store clerks, they looked adorable. Anyway yeah this guy's cool.
Well hey, thanks Mr. Lawson.
Nothing wrong here.
Thank you, Mr. Lawson.
he looks like stanley from the office.

Who do you think plays Stanley?

He didn't actually create the cartridge by the way.

Thankyou, mister Lawson, for all the good times. I wonder how he's doing today, well I hope.

>The company turned to Sanders and Ralph Baer in hopes that Baer’s experience would be able to help them. Baer found their solution within the week and Coleco received its FCC approval. Telstar sold over one million units in 1976, before being overshadowed by the next generation of video game consoles.
>Produced between 1976 and 1983, these second-generation consoles, such as the Atari VCS (also known as the Atari 2600), Mattel’s Intellivision, and ColecoVision, featured interchangeable game cartridges that were retailed separately, rather than games that came preloaded in the unit. This advance allowed users to build a library of games. There was soon a wide variety of games to choose from, but, ironically, this surplus proved to be the one of the key reasons that the industry faced a serious crash during the early 1980s.

Atari folks don't acknowledge this, even though the 2600 was only designed to play 2 kinds of games, way after the Channel F.
Really it's the utilization of the MPU that's revolutionary. Even Atari never embraced the software business model.
it astounds me people have to point out that he was african american as if that means anything. it literally just makes it about the race rather than the accomplishment itself, almost as if to say 'look! see black people can be just like us' even though we've been taught the past 30 years that this is an untold truth. why harp and obsess over it? god I fucking hate liberals.
true
Look up Haskel and Kirschner.
You're cool, Mr. Lawson. I wish all black people were like you. Then the Jews couldn't trick us in to fighting with and having sex with each other, because we would all have self-respect and know not to deprive each other of our respective heritages. That's not to say that it wouldn't happen from time to time, but at least it would be on our own terms and not as a result of an onslaught of propaganda over the course of generations.

Did he like street fighter?
Forced diversity is cringe.
I miss cartridges being the standard
less space means devs can't be retards about bloated filesizes and have to lrn2compress
also better load times
I have never seen an african american engineer IRL
looks like a cool dude. Reminds me of my grad 6 science teacher.

Whatever happened to the short sleeve shirt with tie look?

Thank you Mr. Lawson!

Why does pointing out the truth anger you? He didn't make the cartridge like everyone thinks he does.
this is the most dad looking man i have ever seen. he radiates dad energy. this is a man who grills every saturday and you cannot stop him
why do niggers have to make up history and appropriate others culture?
Black inventors is their only response to black IQ
cause they can't make it on their own. look at haiti.
after over 100 years of being on their own they still blame that they were slaves and that's why everything is shitty.
thanks for shitting up the thread faggot. It's funny to have a ton of negative bullshit threads everywhere and then one really nice wholesome one but then here you come you big dumb faggot.
This is why no one likes you. Kill yourself you fucking zilch faggot nobody.
all this BLM shit lately honestly just reminds me of when I was a kid and for literally a decade school felt the need to dedicate a month's worth of social studies classes to teaching us about why the holocaust was bad. Like, I got it after the first time. By the 6th or 7th I was starting to seriously wonder if they just thought I was too goddamn stupid to take the hint or if they really had nothing better to teach for the entire last stretch of the year.
This is Zig Forums. It's all about being negative. Cope.
Zig Forums is proof that were too goddamn stupid to take the hint
