My main server is named Postulate (an idea that you assume for the sake of argument), my desktop is named Axiom (a proved postulate), and my backup server is named Corollary (an idea that follows from an axiom).

What are your computers named, and why?

    Nothing original;

    lappy386 - my laptop

    desktop (very original)

    mainframe - NAS/nextcloud/email

    orac - multimedia/jellyfin/photoprism/owntone

    bemo (I know, I cant spell) - pihole/unbound/homeassistant/wireguard

    Future servers will be named after any TV scifi tech that takes my fancy. (twiki, zen (or was it xen?), data, k-9, ada, marvin, romi, holly, bender, dolores). Any suggestions?

      Ha! I love “lappy-386”. I miss Strongbad emails. Especially the Halloween ones. And Trogdor.
