  • 501 is the style

    0126 is the color

    32x34 is the size in inches waist x inseam

    Levi’s still sell non-stretch 501, and they should fit pretty much the same (although there is a lot more variation from one batch to the next than there used to be). If you can order from Levi’s online you should be able to get similar ones. Or check any shops for 501 32x34 in 100% cotton.

    Another option would be to get the original 501 shrink-to-fit (color 000). It’s a process to break them in (not as much as heavier denim), but they should last longer since they’re not stonewashed or otherwise treated to make them soft. Just read up on sizing first.



  • For flexibility and size I like external m.2 enclosures. I have some from Sabrent, Orico and Rosewill. Of them all the Rosewill is the smallest, has the nicest build quality, and seems to dissipate heat the best.

    So I would recommend a Rosewill 9SIA072GJ92919, and add an NVMe SSD of your choice.

    I think your MacBook is Thunderbolt 2, so you won’t get full speed but it should still be plenty fast. And this enclosure will give you TB3 speeds if you upgrade your PC later.





  • In terms of language you are correct. But in terms of SI usage it seems to me OP is expressing it correctly. The SI unit prefixes have a name, a symbol and a multiplier. The prefix is a concept that encompasses all three of those attributes. So “kilo” is one way of identifying the 10^3 unit prefix, but the name kilo is not the prefix itself. It’s just the name we use to refer to it. And the symbol k in km is certainly the unit prefix portion of that unit of measure.
