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?

I don't name my computers, but usually name my OS drive Brain and the media drive Pinky.

@b9chomps @JuxtaposedJaguar

You only have 1 media drive? I have 4 8tb media drives all mounted into a single folder via mergerfs.

Also, I think this is referring to hostname. Do you just use whatever the OS default is?
