How Others Name Computers                                   2020-07-21
======================================================================

I wrote a quick post a little bit ago about how I name computers for
Cornish Saints. Quite a few people posted replies to my question
asking what others do.

solderpunk has settled on a Dune character for their laptop.

itsdave is using moons of Saturn. My wife would approve as a fan of
the boardgame Solarquest.

=> gemini://tanelorn.city/~bouncepaw/gemlog/re-naming-computers.gemini

bouncepaw is using location names from a fantasy series.

=> gemini://happycreature.org/gemlog/computer-names_20200717.gmi

happycreature is using planets and stars.

There are several other backlinks in GUS, but they aren't loading for
me at present. I did have a look the other day, but I've forgotten
exactly what they were. As I recall there were more space and
sci-fi/fantasy references. Those are clearly popular in these parts!
