The nice thing about Linux is, he can’t buy it and fuck it up.

I’m kind of fond of my okidata c332dn. It’s my daily driver.
I have Brother multifunction printer. However, it’s run out of toner, and I don’t have the funds right now to purchase new cartridges.
Way back in the olde tymes, I was having trouble with the NIC driver in my Linux install. I posted a question about it on USENET, and got a reply from the guy who wrote the drivers. He asked for some info about the card, then updated the driver to support it.
I used to work in the GRASP lab at Penn, and my predecessor there was John Bradley of xv fame. He had started naming all the machines after fish.
When I got there I continued the practice, naming some tiny computers being used for mini robots after different types of goldfish.
In my current job, years ago, I managed a group of Linux servers, and I named them after Demons (Lucifer, Asmodeus, Azrael, Beelzebub, etc.).
At this point, there is a specific naming convention in use where I’m at, and the name is limited to identifying organization, application, and server type.
How?
