Make grading a blind grade; the teacher only sees the content with no name and grades it with the order being randomized by a computer! Only once all is graded can the teacher access the names.

We don't even need AI for that! OR an internet connection!

Assuming you are being serious with bad reading comprehension, no. FineWoven is mostly plastic, which is created from oil, which is from underground...

Blame cow farts all you want, but Leather is still a very durable natural By-Product.

Nothing happens in a vacuum. So it is hard to correlate one with the other. But the prior two years before the minimum tax requirement was the aftermath of printing all those free checks during the pandemic. Now that that's mostly over, everyone is wondering why inflation hasn't dropped to pre-pandemic levels... It's the 'Inflation Reduction Act' doing just the opposite.

The idea was that having a public election every handful of years will vote out the serious abusers, but here we are - stuck with no term limits and unlimited scope Bills.

Funny how prices in general went up by about that much, huh? 'Inflation.'

Why bother to help the poor citizens that need internet & Feed the Telecom shareholders when instead of putting it where it was promised you move it into a Solar Grant program to buy more votes. Can't wait for the political musical chairs between two parties to continue this voting season.

This wording is what keeps the belt business going strong, if they only sold full grain leather the customer is very happy but won't be coming back unless they want to add another color or style.

Most belts that have the 'genuine leather' stamped deeply into the underside of the belt seem to be ok. If it is printed or on a label of any kind it means that the material won't take the stamping imprint well so it probably isn't worth your time either.

If it's reversible then it is not full grain anything. Real leather has a good face side and the rough underside with no need to fancy up the back with a glued up layer.

I bought a reversible Dockers belt once, in one day worth of wear the glued on leather layer was already wrinkled and blistering. I guess they are ok for playing dress-up once or twice.

Which should you really choose? The one that has been in use since man started walking or the one that is pumped out of the ground (regardless of how much 'post consumer junk - including plastics' is in it) ?

Anyone over 25ish? Should know this by now. Nice of you to explain it for the new Slashdot crowd!

Difficult to replicate? All you need to do is stand in the ocean mist and you are covered in it.

Oh wait, is this an AI post? Crap. That second sentence reads like one, AI is far more destructive than any PFAs.

Yea, we dodged a bullet, the cranberry drinks are safe for now. Unless they are growing them downwind of the shoreline.

Sure ban tittok, but propping up a government with 26 billion dollars of tax payer money just shouldn't be happening in the same vote. Ukraine, ok I guess they really didn't do anything stupid. But ISrael? Each part of this bill should have it's own vote and BE IT'S OWN BILL.

All that money to another wealthy government and they can't even pass a small bill to continue things like the ACP for our own poor on our own soil.

Employees are treated as a commodity? I am shocked!

The funds will come from increased prices from those companies, so once again trickle down economics pisses all over the little guy.
