Is this ironic?

> Three common and well-known tells in AI writing — sometimes genuinely deployed by humans but nowhere their profligate use by AI — are the regularity of em-dashes, the high frequency of specific words like “genuinely”, and the tendency to repeatedly invoke tricolons.

Clickbait.

    Uh-oh
    For a moment there it seemed that you were trying to peek into this Monero address: 47xmhbRuYpSYSrVZx2RsPBhaAQByZq3ucAT6ULxHvDAu8c853ErpLHqBdDmpVzcmWFdZFCWrfZYwp3rqs14zxXx95S7Fyv2
    No?
    Hmmm... it really looks like you were, like, trying to check out this dude's balance.
    Well, Monero says 'No'!

I played around a bit with the Hp-16c JRPN emulator for hex calculations and usefulness was limited by max number size. Largest number I can input is 0xFFFF.

Does anyone know if the SwissMicro models support operating on larger numbers than 16 bits, ideally up to 64?
