Mimicing a thread I saw elsewhere.

I generally use this list to name my machines: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_mythological_objects

For my main server I use loeding: a modified version of Lædingr, a chain forged by Thor to bind and were broken by Fenrir. (Norse Mythology)

Normally I don’t change the names that the distribution gives to the hostname, but I’ve been thinking for a while about changing the names to mythological gods or Latin tree names only for server and SBC.

The only server for which I have changed the host name is now r5700server. r5700 for the processor (Ryzen 7 5700), and server because it’s a server.
