cant wait to have a calculator that uses actually real battery types
(ignore how thats like, cr2032 which is literally the most common button type, i dont have one so thats the calculator’s fault for not being AA)
@kopopp yea ti89s are like 25 bucks on ebay and just… so fucking silly (i mean, its an advanced programmable graphing calculator, thats awesome)
also having an actual calculator to do tedious everyday maths on just seems more enjoyable than what im usually doing (just enter it into whatever search engine im currently using and pray it gets interpreted correctly)
@kopopp i will almost definitely be grabbing the rpn program from archive.org (i saw a blog post from the person that uploaded it there, so i know archive.org has it) so i can do it the fun way with stacks and shit
@kopopp i used to do it with emacs sometimes but indeed, doing it with a programming language is rarely all that fun (particularly since you dont necessarily have an repl running at all times, and if you do its never 100% clear if the language’s maths capabilities are… good, thats a big issue with forth)
@kopopp http://lpg.ticalc.org/prj_tilp/ thank fucking god i knew this had to exist, phew, ill just compile this
@kopopp https://packages.debian.org/bookworm/tilp2 it is in the debian repos, we are so back
