Yeah just what I want, giving someone the ability to control what I see, Granted the Media does it all the time, but this is more like direct input lol

Usually how it goes in my naming conventions are Store bought ones are named after regular Game or Anime Characters and the ones I build my self are named after Visual Novel Characters (My previous store bought one I named Mercury from Tron 2.0, The one I built around 1993 was named Marina, after Marina Hojo from the EVE series)

I started naming PC’s back with Win 2K and using names from SF TV & Novels, there was a “Riker” in there somewhere.

I have a garage sale Gateway Laptop in the closet that I resurrected from the dead. It is named “Zombina” from the Monster Musume series. I turn it on every 6 months or so just to check it.

The PC’s I’ve bult have all gone to the kids, so I don’t get to name them.

My naming convention (at least for the ones I build) have been “miquel-<processor>”

  • miquel-piii-600 (or p3-600, long enough ago I don’t remember)
  • miquel-axp-2000 (AMD was doing something to claim that it was the same speed as a 2 GHz Pentium 4, even though the clock speed was slower)
  • miquel-i7-860 (now named unraid)
  • miquel-i7-8700K (current computer)

So it is Uber for porta-pots?

From what I’ve seen, getting an Uber during rush times can be a bit brutal, so I do not see having to wait for the toilet to be driven to you working out. Maybe cut out the middleman and instead of having a paid bathroom be driven to your location we could just set up paid public restrooms?
