I came across a website that ran some benchmarks of the TI89/92+/200 vs the HP49G+.

I was looking for one of these for a while now because I overclocked my TI-89. I was curious exactly how much faster it was running. I compared a few of my times to the TI used in the benchmarks -- mines runnning about twice as fast! :biggrin:

ppft! TI-89!

I got a TI-89 Titanium :approve:

I don't have adobe reader :frown:
 
In the past two years, I've used a TI-83 Plus, an 86, an 89 Titanium, and now I just have a regular old 89.

The 83 was ok, but mine died from being soaked. I then got an 86 but that was a piece of garbage, so I sold it on eBay. I got an 89 Titanium from Amazon.com and used it for several months, but I felt that I paid so much for extra memory that I'd never use up, so I again sold that on eBay and bought a regular 89 right before. It's my favorite one so far; it's basically the same as the Titanium but has less memory (but still a lot more than I'll ever need).

By the way, don't "ppft" my 89, yomamma! :P
 
This week, I saw a documentary done by the French called Les sacrifiés de l'IA, which was presented by a Canadian show Enquête. If you understand French I recommend it. Very eye-opening. I found a similar documentary in English called The Human Cost of AI: Data workers in the Global South. There is also an interview with Milagros Miceli (appearing in both documentaries) on Youtube: I also found a powerpoint presentation by the economist Uma Rani (appearing in the French documentary), AI...
I have been idly browsing what Apple have to offer with their new iPhone17. There is mention of 'Vapour cooling' to deal with the heat generated. Would that be the same sort of idea that was used in 'Heat Pipes' where water evaporated at the processor end and liquid water was returned from the cool end and back along a wick. At the extreme high power end, Vapour Phase Cooling has been used in multi-kW RF transmitters where (pure) water was pumped to the Anode / or alternative Collector and...
