I still use my Texas Instruments BA-II that I purchased in about 1981 or 82. It's still on the original battery. I don't use it a lot, a few times a week for short periods of time, but it still works great!

And they are multiplying, thereby dividing us.

Sorry to interrupt the calculator thread.

Trump calls for special prosecutor to investigate 2020 election

https://justthenews.com/politi..._campaign=newsletter

Trump's call for a special prosecutor comes in the wake of reports from the FBI that China had conspired to mass-produce fake driver's licenses to carry out a massive fake ballot scheme in the 2020 election.

Officials told Just the News that U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) had captured nearly 20,000 fake driver's licenses in July 2020. Those revelations have called into question the assertions from former FBI Director Christopher Wray that he knew of no foreign interference plots ahead of the election.

They have further reignited Trump's own claims of large-scale election fraud in 2020 that he has said affected the results.

Looks like Ed had the HP-45 at GE:

The HP-45 is the second scientific pocket calculator introduced by Hewlett-Packard, adding to the features of the HP-35. It was introduced in 1973[1] with an MSRP of US$395[2] (equivalent to $2,798 in 2024).[3] Especially noteworthy was its pioneering addition of a shift key that gave other keys alternate functions.

I had the HP-41C:

The HP-41C series are programmable, expandable, continuous memory handheld RPN calculators made by Hewlett-Packard from 1979 to 1990. The original model, HP-41C, was the first of its kind to offer alphanumeric display capabilities. Later came the HP-41CV and HP-41CX, offering more memory and functionality.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HP_calculators

Ed was a friend that worked in Application Engineering. One day, I asked why the eight frequency mobile could only scan two frequencies at a time. We got the circuit diagram and looked up the parts. I realized the switching diodes did not have the isolation and switching speed. I checked my parts supply from working at other companies and found some diodes that would work. Ed made a new PC board for the modification and we now had a mobile radio that could scan eight frequencies while the product planners were out to lunch. So we put the eight frequency option in the book for $200. Big Grin


In the mid to late 80's, I worked as a surveyor (made it up to party chief). The cool older guys and techs in the office mostly had those HP-41CX's with their plug in engineering modules. I plodded along with an HP11. It was programmable, and really a strong tool for field surveying math. Now you can download an HP41cx simulator, and put it on your PC desktop.

Ryan 81986 that's funny shit right there!

Back to the subject at hand Trump. I'm soooo glad he's at the helm instead of the potato in chief! I hope that Trump can keep us out of the shit in the middle east. I also understand that the world can't have Iran with nukes.

If the USofA needs to intervene then si be it. If Trump can bully Iran into a peace deal, with Israel, the U.S. of A and the rest of the world truly making a real change, without more bloodshed, I'm for that.

Or glass their asses!

I'm just glad that D.J.Trump is the guy making the decision!

President Donald Trump announced on Friday he and Secretary of State Marco Rubio had secured a "wonderful" treaty between Rwanda and Congo, as Pakistan formally nominated him for the 2026 Nobel Peace Prize.

“Shoein”? Highly doubt it. I’ll wager that the Nobel Prize committee is full of leftists afflicted with TDS that Trump will never be awarded the Peace Prize. The fact that they gave it to the Krimson Kenyan tells you everything.

The anti-American shit-stain known as Barry Braaaack Hussein Obama Sotero was awarded the NPP for accomplishing absolutely NOTHING of substance, other than making a bunch of his empty windbag filled speeches, affirming to anyone paying attention that he is nothing more than a blithering idiot and blowhard (lol!).

From a wiki entry on his ‘NPP’ citation -

“The Norwegian Nobel Committee announced the award on October 9, 2009, citing Obama's promotion of nuclear nonproliferation and a "new climate" in international relations fostered by Obama, especially in reaching out to the Muslim world.”

The NPP award committee forever tarnished whatever ‘credibility’ that they may have had by awarding FBHO the participation trophy.

They're like moths, locusts, mice, etc. They will destroy anything nice if it isn't protected and looked after.
