No. TV was invented by Farnsworth. There was already cameras by then for over 30 years but could only see the films in theaters or nickel boxes. He was just a farmer but also wanted to bring that stuff to the home. He created the electrical TV and in the 20's the first format war. Mechanical TV vs Electrical. Electrical won obviously.RCA stole the credit until decades later he was given the real credit.

Fun fact two things invented in Utah. Television & The Traffic Light

even funner fact: every country claims to have invented the television. for the UK it's john logie baird

I would have voted for a third party candidate with the full expectation that they wouldn't have won. You can say it's throwing your vote away, but I'd argue voting for anyone other than the person you actually want is throwing your vote away.

I'm classy as fuck you cunts

that is a terrible example, north korea is a fucking shitheap with a terrible army. the south would walk all over them

also; loul@the healthcare argument

i'm sorry but man power generally isn't the deciding factor in war, especially modern warfare... the NK military is so backward and stuck in the early cold war japan was worried their nuclear missile tests would misfire and hit them.

also i can't watch the documentary because i don't have netflix

what the fuck mrslig that's about as far removed from punk as you can get hahaha

not sure what happened last night but i now have a good portion of my tooth missing and a huge lip.

when i get a gun the first thing i shoot will be a brony

I watched the show, purely to see what the fuss was about. Watched it with an open mind. I actually don't fucking get it. It is literally *just* a kid's show. Totally unremarkable.

also if ryudo is gonna get shit for having a nintendo christmas tree, and people who like my little pony aren't, there is something wrong with the world.

thought ryudo had got over his spam threads with pointless gifs and images disease, apparently not

Friedman missed the point. It wasn't "how much money is a life worth", it's whether or not morality should be factored into the equation at all. The fella asking the question seemed to be implying that the decision was purely financial.

kiba no one is going to fall for that

black belt jones. kinda run-of-the-mill blaxploitation film, but really fun to watch, some amusing moments. black dynamite references it quite a bit too

I refuse to believe this is real

Morman is on a mission? Is he saving the earth?

he's still bitter about the cuban missile crisis.

so no one here knows what classical liberalism is? loul okay.

the two are virtually identical. libertarianism is more or less just the modern form.

i have started a tally in my signature for whenever ryudo posts a pointlessly unrelated image or video. feel free to pm me examples starting from now.

maybe it's dying

I think the last time I was here he got banned for posting erotic fiction about peter mandelson and his (female) secretary. At least I think that was why he was banned? I found it hilarious anyway.

good joke buddy

Speaking as a non-US citizen, I believe that non-US citizens (I'm looking at you Piers Morgan), nor people who don't actually live in the US (sheltered and hotel/chauffer lifestyle doesn't count, Mr. Morgan) don't have a valid opinion. At all.

Also, to reference crime rates in another country based in another continent is moot due to cultural differences and the country's overall state. And besides that, the US has a rather unique system in which what may be illegal in one state is perfectly legal in another. So, whilst gun control may be the answer in Texas for example (using names - not the states themselves - as an example only ), it may not be for Illinois.

Bottom line is that laws ain't as black and white as people like to think due to how over-bureaucratised capitalist countries are, so the US as a whole will probably ramble on with this debate for a good few years until (hopefully) the perfect solution is met for each state and each citizen that inhabits it.

But if you want my invalid opinion, it's people - not guns - who are the problem. Make all these "scary-looking" and "demonised" guns illegal, and only the responsible gun owners suffer. Criminals will always be able to get hold of the weapon they want because, as their label suggests, they disregard the law.

this is the most intelligent reply to this topic thus far and probably the most intelligent that will be posted on this forum.

dont worry guys nasa said global warming isn't real

Broken Record: The game flat sucks

wow glad I've found someone who agrees with me about that game

also wind waker is wayyyy better than twilight princess

the only reason amazon is cheaper is because it dodges tax by shipping through the channel islands. which is part of the reason HMV is more expensive.

Well, there is, but I think a picture of a sagging blue scrotum is against the rules.
