US: The way to effectively do thos is to open a series of accounts, in a tree structure, in countries that aren’t CRS compliant. Disperse the money into the structure. This will buy time, mitigating losses in the event of an asset freeze, likely not being caught until FACTA reporting to the IRS. Get the money out ASAP. There’s better methods if laws don’t matter.
I’m not an expert, just a hobbyist.
If it’s actual hardwood then, if you try to fix this, you’ll almost certainly end up doing more damage. An expert probably won’t touch any job for less than $750 because they’re experienced artists as well as technicians.
The best case scenario is it’s not true hardwood, instead wood veneer tongue and groove where pieces are easily replaced… which starts by removing all the baseboards and pieces of floor from the edge to the piece that needs replaced. Anyone could easily learn to do that. But, is it worth the time and effort for a couple hundred bucks?
Probably the best thing to do now is to prevent any more damage. That could be as simple as some 1/4 plywood between the legs and the floor. A quality rug is more expensive and would also work.

There’s the “right” way and then there’s what’s practical. Here’s the “right” way:
Rough sand the entire floor to wood. Fill the voids with Starbond CA glue of the appropriate color, low viscosity for leveling. Fine sand the entire floor. Refinish with oil-based polyurathane.
If you know what you’re doing then this will take three days, most of it dry time. If you don’t know what you’re doing then one way or another you’ll destroy the floor during rough sanding.
No. He’s lying about that part. He worships his own ego.
How do you make people care before it’s too late?
none of my co-workers care
You can’t force another to care. We can educate them with facts and reason while trusting them to make their own choices. And, that isn’t done in a workplace, instead one on one in presence of a human relationship.
But, if you insist, then there’s always a way. Read the Bible as part of a Bible study to develop a nuanced understanding of its message. Relate that message to social democrat, socialist, communist, and anarchist ideology. Determine the relevant Bible passages useful in the specific situations you encounter with specific Christians, then memorize those passages. Then, in full context of Bible and situation, in the moment, quote the passage. Finally, shut up and wait.

I’m about to say the same thing differently.
Eliminating .world filters the majority of the propaganda and bad faith users. What remains is leftist because once we pierce through the propaganda and bad faith, we all agree that left is human.
We’ve three core groups: social democrats, authoritarian socialists & communists, and libertarian socialists & communists. Each focuses on a different part of our timeline. Respectively: the present, the means to overcome the human paradigm, and the ideal solution as we understand it.
Edit: I left out anarchists, whom are often my favorite group. They never get the respect they deserve. I apologize for contributing to that.
Not sure if that would really lead to (quaterly) economic growth though.
Regarding war and money, the question often isn’t who’s positioned to gain the most, instead who’s positioned to lose the least. We often don’t measure self against history and reason, instead relative our competitors.
Taiwan seems the obvious candidate.
The US has already manufactured consent to have a proxy war with China. I assume we’ve not done it in Taiwan because we’d lose more on trade than we’d gain consuming weapons, perhaps also because China could absorb the loss of Taiwan as a trade partner better than the US.
But where?
To be determined. We’re ready and waiting for an opportunity to present itself.
Register and account on another instance that passes the litmus test of federation with .ml and hexbear. Block .world on that new account. Don’t block all those instances .world told you to blindly hate.
No, we are not headed for WW3.
The military-industrial complex must be fed, our weapons sold or used. But, a large magnitude hot war has far more social and economic risk and not enough return on investment relative the alternative of multiple proxy wars. We’ve currently proxy wars in Israel and Ukraine. Economic growth is optimized by beginning a proxy war with China.
If Trump was smart then he might internally convince others in his administration to diplomatically and operationally over-commit. Then we could have WW3. But, he’s a puppet ruling by fear. We’ve been fighting our proxy wars since Reagan. Trump isn’t capable of overcoming capitalism’s mandate for optimized growth.
I’m not an expert but know enough to converse. As I understand it:
The B-1 should be more expensive to fly than the B-52 because of its variable wing geometry and the nature of its engine. But, we spent a boatload of cash to make the B-1 cheaper. We put soft constraints on the performance envelope in mission design then optimized the aircraft for it.
We didn’t update the B-52 because it was far more expensive: replace 8 engines designed in the 1950s with 2 or 4 modern engines, requiring redesign of wing, tail, and cockpit, as well as manufacturing of old parts due to scarcity. If we’d spent for engine modernization then it’d be cheaper to fly because that style of airfrane is almost always cheaper to fly than an airframe that can comfortably sustain Mach 1. It’d even be cheaper to fly for the B-1 mission because we don’t ask the B-1 to leverage the Mach 1 speed it was designed for.
It’s shit like this that helps my civilian self understand the meaning of FUBAR. A rare example of a well-run program is the C-130.
317 million inches to Paris
I’m convinced the B-1 is only still around because building more B-52’s isn’t profitable to the MIC.
I went digging and what I found surprised me.
2010 numbers.
B-1 $63k / flight hour
B-52 $72k
B-2 $135k
JDAMs, dumb bombs made smart, are primarily the B-1 role. Higher tech munitions are primarily the B-52 role.
I think that when they want it done cheap they use the B-1.

Er why haven’t you bought new drives at that point??
There’s different ways to arrange data on multiple physical drives. One group of ways is called RAID. One specific type of RAID is called RAID5. And, one can have 3 or more drives in the RAID5 array.
I’ve 3 drives, each 2TB. In RAID5 I only get 4TB of effective storage (not 6TB). If any one of my 3 physical drives fails, the array preserves all data and continues to operate at a slower speed. The failed drive can be replaced, a rebuilding process performed, and performance restored. If a second drive fails then data is lost and the array stops working. But, even then, new drives can be purchased and data restored from backup.
In a business we never want unplanned downtime because it’s costly. We’d be replace hard drives before they fail on a schedule we choose: planned downtime when no one is working. But, at home, particularly with backups, unplanned downtime often isn’t very costly. We can keep using our old hardware, maximizing its value, until it fails entirely.
Undergrad. You’ve no degree and no work experience. Perhaps the most important thing you’re going to learn from this project is humility.
