Sharing the Computers
There are fewer computers than students in the lab, so don’t hog them! If you are using a remote desktop to log into a computer, check-in with others via the computerchat slack channel to not boot anyone off or interrupt their work. When deciding which computer to use, consider what you’ll be using it for, what software is available on each, and how much computational power you’ll need. Computers 227 and 226 are more powerful than the other computer.
Updating the lab computers:

Rules of use:

- If you leave a program running in the background note this for others in the Slack channel or as an open text file so your work is not interrupted or deleted.
- Sign out of the computer when you’re finished using it
- Firewall? Adblockers? personal email accounts?
