What are the differences between Windows 95 and Windows 2000?
Well, the huge difference between Windows 95 and Windows 2000 is that since Windows 95 is five years older than Windows 2000 Windows 95 is on the lower end of the scale of revolutionary technology.
Another big thing is the startup sound's origins of the two OSes.
Windows 95s startup sound was made (ironically) by someone on a MAC, while Windows 2000s was made on a cheap piano....
Windows 95 was missing a lot of tools used on Windows 2000, and one huge one was USB support.
See, Windows 95 needs an add-on for it to support USB, while Windows 2000 came with support standard. But then again, did USB even exist in 1995?
Another big fact is that the two OSes are targeted at different parts of life: 95 is targeted for educational and home use while Windows 2000 is a "Professional" (buisiness-targeted) OS. But Microsoft also created a (unstable) home version of 2000 dubbed Millennium Edition. (Millennium Edition is commonly known as ME)
Every product will be different. Polyester can contain BPA and I have heard of BPA found in clothing products. There's probably no way to know if your polyester contains BPA unless the manufacturer has come out since the BPA issue became known and states that their products contain no BPA.
Hopefully it will be removed from all products someday along with Fluoride, HFCS, Aspartame, MSG, and all the other chemicals there knowingly poisoning us with.
Polyester resin is not considered food safe. It is often used in applications like boat building and crafting but can leach harmful chemicals and toxins, especially when exposed to heat or food items. For food contact surfaces, materials like food-grade epoxy or silicone are recommended instead. Always check for specific food safety certifications when selecting materials for food-related projects.

How do you remove rhinestones from a polyester shirt?
If the rhinestones are Swarovski, you may have a hard time removing them without tearing the shirt. They stay on.
If they are the cheaper stones, you can try turning the shirt inside out and heating it with an iron. Cover it with a thin cloth, such as a sheet first. Heat the back of the stones and try to gently take them off while the glue is warm. Works sometimes. Not all of the time. Good luck!
What is the difference between 190T polyester and 300 denier polyester?
190T refers to the thread count. A higher number means more threads per inch.
I am not sure, but I believe that denier refers to the thickness of the thread. Thicker is stronger but rougher. See this question for details:

Twill is fabric that has a diagonal pattern. It is actually woven in such a way as to create diagonal "ribs" in the fabric itself (not just colored diagonal lines). Think of cordoroy - that is a fabric with a vertical (up and down) pattern woven into it. Twill is diagonal weaving. If a twill fabric has extra "give" so that it can expand (stretch), it is a stretch twill.
Stretch twill often refers to the fabric having a small percentage of lycra/spandex in it, usually 2-4%.

Is polyester good for the environment?
Polyester is a plastic product. It is useful for a while but it is difficult to recycle and never biodegrades so it will stay around landfills for ever, broken into tiny fragments of polyester, for insects and animals to absorb. Not good for the environment.
Why is polyester preferred for making jackets?
Polyester is preferred for making jackets due to its durability, moisture-wicking properties, and resistance to shrinking and stretching. It is lightweight, quick-drying, and can be easily blended with other fabrics for enhanced performance. Additionally, polyester is often more affordable and easier to care for, making it a practical choice for outdoor and everyday wear. Its ability to retain color and resist fading also contributes to its popularity in jacket production.
Why wool is better to wear in winter than polyester?

What is difference between chapter 7 and chapter 13?
Chapter 7 - Debt goes away. You cannot be behind on your house, car, etc to keep them. You cannot have massive amounts of "stuff" including equity in home/car. Chapter 13 - Lets you repay some debt at a percentage over time (up to five years). Perfect if you are behind on car or house. You get to pay the arrears over time. Chapter 11 - Like 13, except only applies if you have over $200,000 in unsecured and/or $800,000 in secured debt. (Those are the round limits.)
How do you remove candle wax from polyester?
Take an iron and a peice of paper towel and put the paper towel over where the wax is and then hold the iron on top of the wax. Be patient!
Or you could lift the carpet and put a roasting pan under the spill and the carpet. Then using a teapot full of boiling water, pour the water over the wax. The wax will melt through the carpet and into the roasting pan very fast so you don't have to be patient. I thought of this a couple of years ago, however they always erase my signature. Sincerely, Janice Bonser
P.S. The iron idea is not mine. Only the boiling water and roasting pan idea is mine.
polyester cant not grow as it is a man made fibre that is made from factories.

Is BCF Polyester as durable as nylon carpet?
It depends on what you want to call durable. Regardless of what the product line claims, polyester, including BCF polyester, heat sets at a much lower temperature then nylon. This makes it much easier to crush under heavy foot traffic. This is not to say that you should never buy a polyester carpet. If this is a room rarely used, like a formal living room, it may be a good choice. Another time would be a child's bedroom that the carpet will be replaced in 5 years most likely. Polyester carpets are also very stain resistant. With current technology though, nylon is as well. The current push of polyester carpets is from 2 factors...both nylon and polyesters are polymers, they are made from petroleum. Polyester fibers can be made from recycled plastics. With oil pricing inconsistent and rising often, it is less expensive to make polyester. Generally the price is more stable. Second is really part of the first reason. As the economy as slipped and oil has risen, nylon carpeting has become more expensive. Retailers are able to offer the customer more in a moderate price range in polyester. Still if you look you will find high quality nylon carpets for a reasonable price. Carpet sellers want you to be uninformed buyers. Go into a store and ask to see only what you are looking for. Commission sales people push what they make the best commission on. If you state that you would like a nylon carpet, in a frieze style, with a good twist, but under $25 a yard...you might be surprised how many they have. If you are pushed to buy carpeting beyond what you have asked for, leave and go to the next store. Carpet pricing varies greatly from retailer to retailer.
