Cmd+space on macos or alt+space on KDE open a floating text input which does math (and currency conversion!).

On Samsung phones you can have a side-bar one slide away with a calculator as well.

Take that, school math teacher telling us we wouldn't have a calculator!

    yeah my behaviour is 100% a result of the windows calculator being shit

    well that and I don't want to move my hands off the kb/m to my phone, which I don't keep in my office anyways

    I've started just doing it in any of the Excel docs I always happen to have open, which is often better for making revisions and comparing numbers anyways. then just clear those cells when done / close without saving (well, the times that Microsoft lets me close without saving, anyways - sometimes it saves even if auto save is off and you choose to not save)

    Do you know the source of the currency conversion? Like does it come from xe.com for example
