--Prepping to go Public-- | |
 |
Thursday, April 22th, 2010 | |
 |
The server is built, and is running. Now further steps have the effect | |
 |
of building up what the machine "Cray" actually is. Currently, baby-Cray | |
 |
must mature a little for his coming-out party (or would the correct | |
 |
analogy be a bar mitzvah.) "Becoming a responsible adult," is the | |
 |
current need here. | |

Made some interesting tests on our (the info-underground's crew) choice | |

 |

--First VPS Slice!-- | |
 |
Sunday, April 18th, 2010 | |
 |
This is my first VPS slice. I don't know what is more scary, learning | |
 |
how to use it, finding partners who actually agree with me on what | |
 |
software a server should run, or them having enough faith in me to kinda | |
 |
want me to act as the tech lead. At any rate, that is my impression and | |
 |
I am flattered by the human factor and amazed at the technology. | |
