  1. 🎉 Congratulations, you've just read a love letter to a glorified pocket calculator! 🎉 In a desperate attempt to revive #netbooks, someone discovered the Chuwi Minibook X—a "subultrabook" that miraculously adds "fun" to frustration with its Linux quirks. 🤦‍♂️ At least it keeps the #nostalgia alive for those who enjoy pretending it's still 2009. 🙄

  16. The #SlideRule, like the #LogBook, is probably as useless as the #PocketCalculator, today. But I am obsessed with those relics, even in the face of modern 64-bit and 128-bit CPUs.

    I hope, in a couple of decades when I'm six-feet-under, people still appreciate those CPUs as we do the slide rule.

  20. @koehntopp Einen 58C habe ich auch noch auf der Liste; irgendwann wird er mich finden. Aber so schön Continuous Memory auch ist – neue Programme muss man dann halt doch mühsam eintippen und verliert die alten. Da sind die Magnetkarten des TI-59 zum permanenten Speichern (und schnellen Laden) von Programmen doch schon ne Ecke praktischer, denke ich … 🧐 – Hast Du Deinen 58C noch? #TexasInstruments #ti59 #ti58c #calculator #pocketcalculator

  34. Today I found out that 1 divided by 9 and after multiplied by 9 (1/9*9) is a calculation that most pocket calculators can't give the correct answere to, it should be equal to 1 but on my pocket calculator is equal to 0.9999999. I suspect it's because they don't have enough digits precission to give me the correct answere and that's just me guessing why it is. Even if IDK the answere to why it's happening it's still interesting.
