New info on the upcoming TI-84 Plus Evo graphing calculator, thanks to MateoConLechuga: USB-C, 3.5MB Flash storage, a smoother font, wider graphing, and a possible change to the TI Innovator accessories making them incompatible with the TI-84 Plus CE. Discussion: www.cemetech.net/forum/viewto...

Eleven years after the TI-84 Plus CE, the color screen version of the immortal TI-84 Plus calculator, @ticalculators.bsky.social will likely be releasing the TI-84 Evo. Leaks point to UI upgrades mirroring Casio and HP calcs, 3x faster CPU, and rearranged buttons. www.cemetech.net/news/2026/1/...

Do you like flying toasters, word games, crossword puzzles, or building operating systems for 8-bit CPUs? If so, November's Projects of the Month at Cemetech have you covered: www.cemetech.net/news/2025/12...

Less than seven years late, Cemetech's calculator-hacking exhibits at World Maker Faire 2018 - and what the loss of the Faire in 2019 has meant for showing off DIY, making, and hacking, inside and outside the calculator community. www.cemetech.net/news/2025/7/...

Our members were unusually busy in May, with 8 completed projects to vote on, and many others moving forward. Check out arcade and 3D calculator games, a Godot game, hardware projects, and yes, even a few math projects: www.cemetech.net/news/2025/7/...

I've been writing 3D graphing programs for assorted graphing calculators since at least 2003. Now, after starting a 3D grapher for the TI-84 Plus CE and then pausing for eight years (coincidentally roughly the time since @geopipe.ai was founded), I've released it: www.cemetech.net/forum/viewto...

What do a dithered puppy, row-major LCD graphics routines, and an update to a 29-year-old black-and-white arcade game have in common? They're all projects in Cemetech's April Projects of the Month update: www.cemetech.net/news/2025/5/...

Even better - a math corgi puppy.

Using Chrome "fixed" the issue, but the Firefox problem persists, even when pasting the image into the post.

2024 ended strong: Cemetechians worked on calculator, computer, and hardware projects in December 2024, from an on-calculator ez80 ASM IDE to math and 3D graphing tools to a TI-84 Plus-turned-art. See them all and vote for your favorite: www.cemetech.net/news/2025/1/...

Any image we upload to a Bluesky post from Firefox seems to turn fully black, whether JPG or PNG. Any workarounds/is this a known issue?

If you feel like we just posted a Projects of the Month, you're not wrong - but Cemetech's news editors were efficient with November 2024. Projects included games, math tools, a physics simulation, and even a shockingly powerful 3D renderer. November's projects: www.cemetech.net/news/2024/12...

The Casio fx-CG100 has been announced by Casio Education. Now part of the ClassWiz line, it's sleeker, but early reports suggest Casio BASIC and C programmability may have been removed. More when we get hands-on: www.cemetech.net/news/2024/9/... #edtech
