We’re excited to announce that hera.kernel.org (aka master.kernel.org) has arrived at the Open Source Lab.
The machine was flown up from California where it had been hosted for the last several years at Orion Multisystems and had been moved to the OSL for access to increased bandwidth. We’re more than excited to have it land (literally) with us. Update: the other reason for the move was so the OSL could provide backups for this important machine … thanks Nathan.
Of course we have pictures of the actual event and you can follow along at home by watching the bandwidth graphs (hint: these are pretty boring).
Kees Cook came down from Portland to help get the machine up on the network. He even stayed for the 5th annual “Geeks and Steaks” (more to follow on that later). Thanks for the visit Kees … we look forward to seeing your mug around here more often (although not because things break).

I’ve got an Amazon gift certificate burning holes in my pocket,
and I want to get the most bang for my buck.
Enter the Secret Amazon Web Pages:

This is where you’re going to find the “latest sales, rebates, and limited-time offers” from
Amazon, and you can score some pretty deep discounts if you’re a savvy shopper.
Next, there’s the special Sale link. This is open every Friday, and ONLY on Fridays.
You can find the same good discounts here as you would in hidden Deals, although some
Fridays you can really get lucky and make off like an Amazon bandit - I’ve seen discounts
there as low as 75% off sticker price.
