# Skynet: Introduction
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
Skynet is the UL Computer Society's computer cluster.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
Has a long history: <<https://2016.skynet.ie/history.html>>.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
Older than the Society. (1992 vs 1994)
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
But alas good things always come to an end.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
Due to //A Series of Unfortunate Events// we lost internet in Jan 2023
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
Turns out Wordpress got Wordpress'd and we had a //smol// spam problem.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
ITD also wanted us to have all servers patched and up to date.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
# Skynet 3.0
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
Gave us a chance to do a full rebuild.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
Servers were delved Indiana Jones style.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------

Backups were made.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
Returned Summer 2023.
