- for the clusters, Gus and Buster
- for ingress, Ingrid and Igor
- for the nas, Cass
- for your Mac mini, Bach
- for your development server, Jessop (short for Jessop the Desktop)
Okay, more suggestions:
Just give them ordinary names. Then when someone hears you say something like, “I think Greg is due for a reboot” you’ll make their day that much weirder.
I’ll sometimes pick ordinary names that are loosely related to the function for memory purposes. ingress01
becomes Ingred
, cluster01
becomes Gus
(i.e., Gus the Cluster), etc.
And of course, if there’s a machine that you expect will give you trouble, you name it Richard
.
It’s still the result of robbing the working class, and concentrated wealth like that is bad for everyone (even the billionaires).
