Re: [MBZ] 30yo boat diesel fuel?

[G Mann via Mercedes]

Filter it, then mix 50/50 with fresh and use it like normal fuel.
I've used 30 year old diesel fuel to run a number of times in large diesel
engines. It worked fine.
Clue, how old was the crude oil it was refined from? 30 years is a brief
vacation.

Weed killer and bonfire starter.

You probably don't want your hands in the stuff.

Re: [MBZ] OT - Sonic fibre internet

We have 40Gb backbones throughout our data center. Most of the older hardware 
doesn’t support that fat of a connection, but more and more stuff is beginning 
to. We’re getting ready to deploy some Cisco Hyperflex devices next month that 
are all flash storage, and everything between them and our core is 40 Gb fiber. 
We’re going to have some screaming fast VMs.

We support 40Gb/s clients at work. That's 4000MB/s to the client. To support 
that data rate the storage STARTS at $80,000. For $2.5 million we have a system

If you don't mind the system being a little slower (25,600MB/s) you can get a

Re: [MBZ] A couple other cars I moved out of the shop

[dan penoff.com via Mercedes]

Sad that the dealers of that time did a lousy job getting the stock wheels 
chromed. Peeling chrome is indicative that they didn’t nickel plate them first, 
which a plating guy at Kohler once told me is critical for chrome plating to 
stick to a surface.

The stock (chromed) wheels that were on my 97 SL500 were chromed by the selling 
dealer (Beverly Hills, CA) and by the time I got the car in 2013 they were 
peeling like an onion.

Re: [MBZ] OT - Sonic fibre internet

[dan penoff.com via Mercedes]

I have a 400 Mbps connection at the Flagstaff house that averages (I run a 
speed test app on a regular basis with logging) around 425 Mbps. Doesn’t seem 
to matter what time of day or day of the week, it’s pretty consistent.

Figure that 40 Gb and more is pretty common in data frames and can go some 
distance, so if they have a big enough pipe and the infrastructure to support 
1000 Mb that’s not unrealistic. The fiber isn’t going to cost that much more, 
the cost will be in the switching and routing.

 I wonder about these 1Gb connections. That's about 100MB (megabytes) per 
second. It seems unlikely that the ISP could actually support that for 
thousands of subscribers. I'd guess they count on you only using a small 
portion of the bandwidth.

We're paying $60/mo for what amounts to 5 Mbps via WiFi MIMO,
a small dish antenna facing a tower several miles away.  Line of sight.
It works pretty well, but it's only as fast as it is.  (Clearly it's metered.)
The speed is not an inconvenience, _except_ when transferring 4GB
database backup files to/from work.  That can take hours.

If fiber were available here, I'd be all over that like a bum on...

> Also included is a phone line with unlimited calling to 60+ countries.

Probably not a phone line.  VOIP over the fiber internet connection.
Basically an interface to the packet switched network, the telco,
that you can use.  Is there a POTS interface on the fiber box?
That's one of the products we made at World Wide Packets.

You plugged your analog home phone into the POTS jack, the transceiver
in the box converted it to VOIP, the IP fiber delivered it to the telco 
interface,
wherever in the world it was located, or needed to be located, and things
proceeded from there.

Maybe it's now all only an app on a smartphone now.  Same thing, minus
the POTS jack and the old phone.

Re: [MBZ] OT - Sonic fibre internet

[Jim Cathey via Mercedes]

> The provider is promising 1,000Mbps fibre to the house for $39.99/mo.

We're paying $60/mo for what amounts to 5 Mbps via WiFi MIMO,
a small dish antenna facing a tower several miles away.  Line of sight.
It works pretty well, but it's only as fast as it is.  (Clearly it's metered.)
The speed is not an inconvenience, _except_ when transferring 4GB
database backup files to/from work.  That can take hours.

If fiber were available here, I'd be all over that like a bum on...

> Also included is a phone line with unlimited calling to 60+ countries.

Probably not a phone line.  VOIP over the fiber internet connection.
Basically an interface to the packet switched network, the telco,
that you can use.  Is there a POTS interface on the fiber box?
That's one of the products we made at World Wide Packets.

You plugged your analog home phone into the POTS jack, the transceiver
in the box converted it to VOIP, the IP fiber delivered it to the telco 
interface,
wherever in the world it was located, or needed to be located, and things
proceeded from there.

Maybe it's now all only an app on a smartphone now.  Same thing, minus
the POTS jack and the old phone.

Re: [MBZ] A couple other cars I moved out of the shop

[Karl Wittnebel via Mercedes]

I dont think I would sell our 560sel. It is just a great ride. People in
the back seat are so happy. For some reason the start is rough, but once it
catches it runs like butter.

Does anyone have a set of SEL wheels? Mine were flakey chrome and it costs
more to dechrome them than to buy another set, so I recycled them.

Supposedly this lift can be setup either way. The columns face each other and 
are not offset but I think the rear arms extend to make it symmetrical or not.

Re: [MBZ] Lift

Don't take my word for it as I've never installed one but I think it depends on 
if the lift is symetrical or asymetrical.

If symetrical I believe the post will be roughly centered with the "B" pillar 
or vehicle center of gravity.

If asymetrical the "rear" arms on the lift are longer and the post will be 
closer to the "A" pillar

An asymetrical lift would need less space in front of the post and more space 
behind it.

A symetrical lift would have the car roughly centered (front-to-back) with the 
posts.

Re: [MBZ] OT - Sonic fibre internet

[Allan Streib via Mercedes]

If you're in a rural area with no cable/fiber options, it might be worth it. I 
think it's still to be proven how well Starlink performs once it's fully 
subscribed, but it should almost certainly be better if your alternative is 
"satellite" internet such as Dish/DirecTV.

It's $240/yr more (plus 500 more the first year) so another question is how 
much do you need fast internet?

100Mb service is (should be) plenty good for most household use unless you have 
several users doing a lot of downloading or streaming, asuming you are actually 
getting that speed. I just ran a speedtest and I'm getting ~120 Mb down/10Mb up 
on my desktop computer with Comcast Xfinity.

For the most part it sounds to be decent, but there are issues if you don’t 
have a clear horizon to horizon view for the dish. The slightest interruption 
in the “visibility” of the dish of the sky will interrupt service.

I’ve heard from a couple people outside of Flagstaff that have it and they’re 
pleased, but then again, their choices were limited to satellite internet. That 
and they have a very clear, unobstructed view of the sky from both horizons. 
Ask Kaleb how well satellite Internet works…

[MBZ] OT - Sonic fibre internet

[David Bruckmann via Mercedes]

Good day,

Sorry for the OT question, but I figured someone here might have experience
w Sonic fibre internet service. They're laying fibre all throughout Oakland
and pushing their service very hard. I currently have AT DSL and it
hasn't been the best. Replaced the modem but it is still not the best
bandwidth to begin with.

Their online forum responses seem to be prompt, helpful, and informative.

Just wondered if anyone here can echo or dispute the above WRT to
fibre-to-the-house service.

[MBZ] "Diamond in the Rough" 1980 MERCEDES 450SL CLASSIC R107 2 SEATER CONVERTIBLE - $8, 900 (SAINT SIMONS ISLAND)

[Floyd Thursby via Mercedes]

It actually looks pretty nice and the issues don't seem to be that bad, 
could probably negotiate it down as I doubt he paid that much for it to 
begin with. Seller is straight on it too.  The bumpers are awful but 
that is how they were.
