Anyone on here use RPN style calculators?

I only use RPN because my brain likes it 😁

antiproton,

@beige_alert the 11c is q lovely unit! I wish i had one 😁

Swiss Micros makes a new clone if you ever need a replacement

antiproton,

@f4grx yeppers! That's the reason I like it. I love assembly 🥰

antiproton,

@DavidNielsen some people's brains work that way and some people's brains do not lol neither is the "correct" way.

antiproton,

@DavidNielsen interesting. I use it everyday when I do math. I have a lot of trouble regular calculators lol

antiproton,

@Ptang yeah, I have one of those on my phone too. But I also bought a nice Swiss micros DM42 physical RPN calculator that's based on the HP42S

Note the custom wallpaper that has my name and the picture of the goddess and named for 😂😂😂

antiproton,

@Ptang yeppers! I keep those in my purse. Never know when you need to do sci stuff lol

I do recommend the Swiss Micro DM42, for sure! It's really nice. Also, metal and heavy 😲😃

antiproton,

@DavidNielsen nifty!
We are an all woman house, so not husbands 😅 but It definitely is useful around the house. Also, do you mean a fast fourier transform?

antiproton,

@beige_alert nifty!
You have an original one! I also like the Swiss micros stuff and they do make a version that looks like yours as well, not just the 42 that we both have. Anyway these are wonderful little calculators and I adore them

antiproton,

@DavidNielsen lol well I'm glad that she's loaded to the roof with credentials, for sure lol

I haven't gone down the PhD route yet, we'll see where the wind carries me. But that electrical engineering definitely explains why she likes an RPN

antiproton,

@Ptang I mean it's your birthday right? Shouldn't you get the gift that you want? 😁

antiproton,

@brhfl nifty!

I used an hp38g in school, but I really like the hp42 lol

antiproton,

@brhfl nifty!!! I love calculators like that. I don't have enough free cash to go running around buying old ones like that, but I would be happy to if I did. They are just so nice 🥰 I do math all the time, so I always have a RPN calculator sitting beside me

antiproton,

@Auxonic a wonderful unit! 😃

I love how the old calculators just last forever. I mean, I know everyone wants to use their phone, but my calculator has like a multi-year battery lol and it just works instantly. There are some benefits over the phone

antiproton,

@Auxonic nifty! Such lovely things.

This is why i bought a new DM42 😃✌️

Surveys start with:

Is your gender?
Male 🔳
Female 🔳

Generally the first thing I do when I see that is just close the survey. I already know that the people who made it don't care about me or my thoughts lol

antiproton,

@DavidNielsen lol 🤷‍♀️

antiproton,

@f4grx me too, for surr 😂

Finally, some good news!

Guess who remembered to buy the two-year warranty against scratches when they bought their glasses lol and so, and get to fix my boo-boo's with my glasses for free. I need a little free right around now 😵‍💫

antiproton,

@mattsiegel finally, some good news lol I was starting to wonder if I whatever find any good news lol

antiproton,

@opalmirror I don't always buy warranties, but sometimes I think it's worth it. Obviously it's in a cost to risk ratio. And while one can mathematically determine the likelihood and so on to some degree, I sort of just feel it out. This one felt really likely to happen so I'm glad I did. Oddly, this is the first time they've ever been scratched but damn that I scratch 'em lol

antiproton,

@opalmirror We got a set of these for m, and they were expensive. But they put this damn coating in the outside of them that got destroyed really quickly and it rendered the glass useless. What's the point of sapphire if we're going to then coat cheap plastic over top of it? 😵‍💫

antiproton,

@opalmirror 100% agree that it should be free. All med/visual/dental should be free (taxes)

All right!

Done with my doctor appointment and time to head home. Here is my autumn dress which has little leaves all over it, embroidered. I'm starting to wonder if Autumn is my favorite season.

Not too hot or cold, and such beautiful colors, and Halloween/Samhain 🍂🎃🍁🏳️‍🌈

antiproton,

@f4grx @ve7fim yeppers! Ty 🥰💙

I got it from eShakti.com, but they've since sort of gone downhill. It's unfortunate because they were my favorite place to get dresses.

antiproton,

@f4grx @ve7fim yeppers!
Sadly, they stop functioning right after I got my last one. If you order something there now, it's a good possibility it will show up really late and not be well made or properly fitted. Nobody knows what's going on with them. Look at their reviews if you want to see what I mean. It's very sad

It is mind boggling to me how many websites make it difficult or impossible to express the idea you no longer wish to use an old credit card

antiproton,

@rvkennedy @mdione @mcc @markuswerle I mean, they could just ask for your gender lol They don't need to know my sex unless they're my doctor.

I go by Mrs. Ishtar [lastname] 😁
