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?

Desktop - Eldritch Mythos
Laptop - Elder Thing
Phone - Shoggoth

As for why, I don't know why I originally went this route. The phone is a Pixel 7, so it's name was inspired by the meme.

My servers all are named after their purpose, no theme for them lol.
