Hi there!

On Wednesday (27th) will be our Skynet indoctrination Introduction session in our regular place:
Room 3 in the Student Center (beside Spar).

The goal will be to get you set up with a Skynet account which should give you access to services like Gitlab, a full Linux webserver and email.

For any folks who already have a Skynet account it is a good time to reactivate it, we have had a lot of background changes and automations to make thigns more secure.

For anyone interested in the hardware (Skynet Team) side of things we will be right beside the server room.
Will be showing it off a tad.

Laptops required.

------------
The following event (Wed 4th) is our AGM so mark the date in your calendar.

Hi @everyone

Thanks to some [Dwarven Rock](<https://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=Wind+rose>) things got sorted out.

I've also updated the database for the discord bot so ye can use ``/link`` in <#1153109633980964905>

Tomorrow I'll do a post mortem to outline what went wrong, why I wasnt able to solve it during teh event as well as what solved it.
One goal of it would be how to tackle it better in the future if it or something like that occurred again.
I'll pop the link here when I have it done.
