[Cialug] Free Linux Account Somewhere?

[Matthew Nuzum]

I googled for "free shell account" and there are numerous ones available. I
did this back a few years ago when I wanted to practice some C++
programming. They're strict on abusive behavior and chat bots, and they'll
kill your account if you're idle a few weeks, but otherwise it can be
pretty good.

Regarding the credit card, can you pick up a $10 pre-pay card to get the
service started then use it to buy lunch?
