@ObsessiveFOSS I think you might prefer ACIS over the Niskayuna CSD (just ask @jokerdino) :P (although apt-get privileges may be more...limited)

LOL :P
they fixed the apt-get stuff but took away the ssh, torrent, IRC, etc

Ok, next session on 3G modem we finally figure out http tunneling (that didn't work earlier BTW because of the same reason wget, apt-get, etc. didn't) :)

@izx I am fine. We have Ubuntu on some computers(currently in testing, thank me), but the web site is crap. I also have my username in the sudoers list for even a shell.
I will, however, complain about the bad website.

So a search to see if "nisky" was a canonical abbreviation led me to urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=Niskayuna ... humorous, with apologies to @ObsessiveFOSS :P
@ObsessiveFOSS yes, informal su powers over a school's computing resources was "da bomb" back in my day too ;)

@izx Close... but they overestimate the income range, and we don't go to starbucks... We run web servers on static IP addresses.
It's more like smaller, but still OK houses to larger houses/smaller mansions where one requires two external AC compressors..
There is little use of alcohol or narcotics(Only one case of underage drinking last school year)
