wisdom of button batteries -- anyone think they are a good idea? in c/zerowaste@slrpnk.net
[–] drre@feddit.org 3 points 6 days ago

i had the same issue with a cr2032 powered kitchen scale. my take is that the scale draws way too much power for the battery, and i guess its the display who draws most. (had the same issue with a kitchen thermometer). so it's bad design i guess

Recommended books (feddit.org)
 

I'm new to WordPress and i've just managed to create a local site using bedrock running inside docker.

Are their any goods books/texts recommended for professional wordpress setup and development? My impression is that the titles I'm able to find online are out of date or of questionable relevance. Any ideas? Thanks a lot for your help!

Seeing a lot of copium but am I fucking crazy? The market would have to do more than just recover for people to recoup their losses, correct? in c/nostupidquestions@lemmy.world
[–] drre@feddit.org 17 points 3 weeks ago (12 children)

yes, generally it's l/(1-l), where l is the loss (ranging from 0 to 1). Example: if you loose 10%, your portfolio needs to grow 11.11% to compensate just for the loss. go figure how long that is gonna take

totally agree with reading more. text is easy to consume, easy to store, (somewhat) easy to verify (if sources are provided), and it keeps (if using dead trees for storage). ever since the pandemic i started reading more and must say i really like it

How to find a specific make of jeans again? (feddit.org)
 

(I know its not really buy-it-for-life, but it's a 100% cotton, no-stretch jeans which usually last me a couple of years)

Does any one of you know how to find a pair of Levis jeans given the info on the care label? The place where i bought it has closed down, other shops around me are staffed by pupils, and their website returns nothing.

Per the label:

Made in Spain, CIF A 08298606 00501 0126 32x34 267004 0204 08159 LEVI STRAUSS EUROPE MIDDLE EAST & AFRICA 15-23 AVENUE ARNAUD FRAITEUR BRUSSELS, BELGIUM

I believe the part in bold should specify the make (501) and the specific style.

As i don't really care about the brand: Can anyone recommend a decent pair of 100% cotton, no-stretch, straight-leg (but somewhat bulky thighs) jeans which can be worn with (biker) boots?

Thanks a lot for your help!
