AI Thread Summary
The user is experiencing difficulties with a new calculator, specifically with reusing previously entered equations and managing the touchpad functionality. They are unable to easily retrieve long, multi-variable equations for re-evaluation, as the calculator does not have a straightforward method like the TI-89's 2nd + Entry feature. Instead, they resort to using the copy and paste function (Ctrl+C and Ctrl+V) for equations, which they find tedious. Additionally, the user wishes to disable the touchpad to avoid misclicks but has not found a way to do so completely, despite discovering resources that discuss modifying touchpad settings. They reference online manuals for further assistance.

Sorry, title limited on what I could type. I just got this calculator and am having two big issues with it.

1) I cannot figure out how to reuse my most recently typed equation. For example if I type in a insanely long multiple variable equation and evaluate, the only way I can figure out how to get it back is to type it all out again, if I want to change something and re-evaluate. On my Ti 89 I could just do 2nd + Entry.

2) How can I disable the touch pad? I have no desire to use it and I see no reason to use it, and it is causing me to misclick through the menus way too often.

Hm the ctrl+c and ctrl+v combo works for the equations I tried, but it's a little tedious.

I had tried scrolling up and clicking to bring the equation back down, but I specifically was unable to get this to do anything with summation operations. The copy and paste method should make due for now... thanks!
 
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...
