HOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

Just so you know. It doesn't work with all solar powers. A lot of un-scientific ones don't do that.

That's genuinely bugged me for years, but fuck me if it doesn't work on mine. Thank you for this information Helen.

I've got a Sharp and a Casio at the office, on Monday I will test "Helen's Theory" on both

...as it should be known from now on.

supposedly there's a bunch of different combinations, depending on the manufacturer.

hold down 2 and 3

hold down 5 and 6

hold down the Division and Multiplication buttons

hold down 9 and the Subtraction button

hold down 1, 2, 4, and 6

hold down 1, 3, 4, and 5

hold down 1, 2, 3

Yeah, these all check out as well, although the last three might tax the average hominid. I tried them on a Saturday night at home, alone, on the internet with my calculator by my side. Could there be a more persuasive argument for euthanasia than that?
