Skynet Cluster Update

ITD changed their policies at the start of 2023 and abruptly removed our access to the internet. The changes made continuing skynet unfeasibile in it's previous form. We have been working tirelessly to rebuild the skynet cluster from the ground up with up to date software/security practices etc. We are currently working on setting up all the core infrastructure required. We are slowly getting our internet access restored and ports opened for services. We hope to be able to reopen skynet to members in the near future


Welcome to University of Limerick Computer Society!


The UL Computer Society is for students who are interested in Open Source Software, Hardware, Computer Games and Technology in general. We run weekly meetups, where we discuss topics related to computing, work on projects together or just play games and relax. Membership is open to all UL students and Alumni not just those who are part of technology courses!
