# Skynet

Skynet is the UL Computer Society's computer cluster.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Has a long <<https://2016.skynet.ie/history.html>>.
Older than the Society. (1992 vs 1994)
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
# Skynet 3.0
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
We got cut off from teh internet Jan 2023 by ITD.
Root cause was related to Wordpress.
ITD wanted everything to be fully patched and up to date.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Gave us a chance to do a full rebuild.
Servers were delved Indiana Jones style.
Backups were made.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Returned Summer 2023.
Powered by NixOS.
A config first operating system focused on being reproducible.
Fully open source: https://gitlab.skynet.ie/compsoc1/skynet/nixos
Skynet now can compile and update itself.
Automation FTW!
