Solve your own audio issues  |  First Steps with RPi 3  |  Humidity & Condensation  |  Sleep & Hibernation  |  Overclocking RAM  |  Making Backups  |  Displays  |  4K / 8K / 16K / etc.  |  Do I need 80+ Platinum?

If you can read this you're using the wrong theme.  You can change it at the bottom.

I named it Dinnerbone because I'm stupid/too lazy to change it to a decent name. (Note: When I named it, I flipped the laptop over in the same way that the name causes Minecraft animals to do.)

I call all my computers or VM installs "bakula" and the number of all the OS installs I did on my own and not at work.

For example, my current VM is at "bakula19"

I refer to my Ivy Bridge i3 Windows 8 heap o' junk as the "Craptop", and while I was buying my desktop I christened him "The AMD Boy".

 

Yes. Yes, I do have an entirely AMD desktop. I am not a fanboy.

Definitely not a fanboy. Not at all.

My current PC  is named Feelers

Hdds get fictional female names such as Echo (from Dollhouse) and Rapunzel.

My flash drives are named after TF2 character classes

My main PC is called Kuro. Not much thought into it. It's Japanese for black. Followed the naming of my car which is called Midori (Green). Funny thing is, my car's paint color is called Midori Green Pearl (kinda redundant, huh?).

 

My HTPC is called Grandia. It's NOT actually named after the game series. It's just named after its case. A SilverStone Grandia GD09.

 

My laptop WAS named Longbow after the AH-64D Apache Longbow (MSI GE60 2PL Apache). Now it's named Doorstop. It has no use to me since I built Grandia. I don't go anywhere much that necessitates me carrying a laptop. My phone, 3DS, and Vita are plenty for me. Then it was used an HTPC but it's just too damn loud. No amount of thermal grease re-application will shut it up.

My nickname + brand.

ElfenSkyXMG

ElfenSkySamsung

ElfenSky...

 

note, I only have laptops, so it makes naming rather easier. I suppose I wont be able to do it if I ever get a desktop. ElfenSkyDesktop maybe. That doesn't sound cool enough tho.

You could use the brand of the platform. So, either the CPU brand or motherboard brand...

Mines "The Tempest", the name Storm has been with me as my username throughout my years in gaming and I wanted that to stick with my first ever PC build!

Pyrithia. (Puh-ri-fee-a) Why? Because it sounds fucking cool. Also the name of a fantasy land from one of my favorite book series, and I see my computer as a gate to said lands.
