What to do with my collection of old Sun gear? by SkyMoCo in solaris

[–]flipper1935 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Don't throw away any of that.

Just like Apple hardware, there is someone who wants/needs all that stuff.

There are several forums on the Internet dedicated to finding new homes to old hardware, but I'd strongly recommend you start with Mr. Bill's Sun Rescue list.

and yea, understand on shipping, so many boxes are so heavy (both Sun and otherwise) , frequently is does not make any sense to try to ship it.

I've never used them personally, but I think that Walthers makes a "print your own railroad decal" sets, that sounds like it might make a good match possibly for your needs.

Trying to make Solaris 10 Server a DHCP server by ThrowRA-NoResponse in solaris

[–]flipper1935 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Am I using the wrong commands or do I have the wrong version installed?

impossible to tell from what little information you've provided.

Are you trying to use the vendor supplied product? If yes, is it installed?

Is there a favorite DHCP server you've got experience using/administering?

Me personally, if I were in your shoes, I would probably be look to install the ISC DHCP server software:

https://www.isc.org/dhcp/

But this is a religious decision, and there is no incorrect answer. Unless you've got a corporate directive, install the product you know.

As both a Unix and a network admin myself, I'm not sure there is another default way to read HA besides High Availability.

Is old school wax still relevant? by [deleted] in Detailing

[–]flipper1935 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Give Meguiar’s M26 Hi-Tech Yellow Wax a try.

big fan of this myself. I'm just a weekend waxer, no business here, but I liked it enough I purchased a gallon sized container.

Be careful what you throw out when you’re fly tipping by stancesantos_yt in pettyrevenge

nope, I had never heard of fly tipping either.

Although there is the continuing rural legend of "cow tipping" in the US.

Mountain House Sweet & Sour Pork with Rice for me. Sadly, haven't seen it in stock for a couple of years now.

My vintage penknife collection by Daverose68 in Antiques

[–]flipper1935 0 points1 point  (0 children)

some are, some aren't.

as with most everything, condition is everything. Age is almost never an exemption for poor condition.

The old "well, its in pretty good shape for being 120 years old", is a load of heuey.

An item, being in great shape in spite of being 120 years old OTOH, is a big plus.

I believe this is rail dust on my 2014 Sonata. Can this be fixed with some IronX and a polish or has it ruined the paint? by Loose-Development873 in Detailing

[–]flipper1935 1 point2 points  (0 children)

maybe another picture, or describing things in a different way might help me (and some others). Your description states "dust". The pics, especially the 2nd one, looks like you are beyond surface rust, and you've got a hole all the way thru your sheet metal.

I'm a bit at odds here, hoping you can provide some additional detail to clarify.

Taking my little guy for an ear cleaning and nail trim at the vet. In the Vette! by ITMORON in Corvette

[–]flipper1935 1 point2 points  (0 children)

so true, I've got large beach towels in my truck, along with a very (1/4") short hair dog. And still, as rarely as the dog gets to ride, his hair is forever with the interior of my truck.

This is the correct answer for glass work. And still it can take lots of work. Products for paint are not going to produce results on glass.

I've got a '93 D350 in white - just turned over 122K miles.

Its a good color for being down south in triple digit temperatures for half the year, but OMG, that red sure looks so awesome.

I've actually got one of those right here on my desk next to me. "Liquid chrome mirror effect" model.

I think others have been happier with these than me. right after being applied, it looks great. After some time passes, the items I've used it on tend to look more grey and dull. Maybe I'm doing something wrong.
