And1 (available at walmart in the US) and adidas are my go to and both brands have held up better than the Saxx, UA and exoficcio pairs I tried before while being much cheaper. Don’t put them in the dryer and they’ll last years.

> it was my way to stay awake

If you drink coffee just for the caffeine wouldn’t caffeine pills be cheaper?

> How about you?

I mostly use a V60, the only thing to discard is the paper filter and the used coffee grounds. For espresso I’ve got a La Pavoni from some decades ago, they still have spare parts and whatever widely available.

Capsules are pointless and Nestle is an awful company to begin with.

This, I have pairs of Under armour boxer briefs that have lasted 10 years and still look new. They don't break the bank and are super comfy too.

You have to order them! But probably better to compost as you’re already doing.

No, by their own stats only 1/4 of them are ever recycled

I've had good luck with Under Armour. Can often find them on sale.

I was thinking about buying GORUCK Performance Briefs. Their warranty still applies to underwear, I think

Kinda picky? Sure, but they're your jeans and it's your money - return them if you think it'll bother you. Depending on how you wear them that dye will likely wear off within a year or 2.

> basically an electric moka pot right?

Correct, doesn't actually make espresso.

at this point, i'm gutting my nespresso pods for the spent coffee to feed my compost pile, but I never actually see the supposed bag I can use to recycle the pods and instead just put the aluminum in my recyclable bin.

Indeed I don't think enough people use it or take advantage of it. The generic capsules from Lavazza or trader Joe's aren't recyclable either. They are still better than K-cups and at the end of the day we can only do what we can.

Calvin Klein are great. I am told that Levi’s are made by the same factory. Rituals are also great.

I've never been diagnosed with ADHD but looking through that hobby list I realise that I've, at one point or another, been fixated on 25 of them...

I think it should wear off when you start wearing the jeans with a belt, or if you wash them. You could ask if they would replace the patch as a free repair sometime in the future, or remove the patch entirely

I have a nespresso machine (from about 2015 as well), and was talking with my wife about how long ours has lasted. It's still going surprisingly fine.

Is it picky? Maybe a tad. But maybe that dye will also permanently stain that tag. So I don't think it's unreasonable to return it. Is there a store near you where you can exchange it in person? That's what I would do if given the option.

Right but do people actually use it?

They provide free recycling via UPS in the US at least.

Yes definitely, and I'm sure this is bleed from other jeans they were stacked with. These just arrived today and are unworn. My question is sincere curiosity about whether it's picky to want these to be in more pristine condition upon arrival?

Jockey brand.
