Electronics/Devices/Computer Names

[Acid]

My house is a palace of love and peace.

[Bueno Excelente]

My computer's name is "The Computer".

He's a total diva so he insists I use the The.

One of these days, the monitor will want preferential treatment too. God damn appliances.

[Derreck Simons]

I named my laptop "Irgendein-Typ" when first prompted.

But I still just refer to it by what it actually is, along with any other electronic device I own.

[Krystal]

Hey Bueno your computer sounds like you. Nya. I bet the fridge will want it first.

Irgendein-Typ? That's a cool name =O How did you come up with it~?

[Derreck Simons]

Irgendein-Typ? That's a cool name =O How did you come up with it~?

It's "some guy" in German. Got the translation from a friend years ago and been using it since.

It's also what I originally joined the site as. Most people just shorten it to "Irgy".

[Karai]

I have names for HDDs. C: is obviously System on both computers. On the desktop - D: is Empire (keeping all important stuff), E: is Dungeon (for random things), F: is Casemate (as prison - it holds everything that soon will be burned to DVDs). Netbook D: is called Universe as it holds every possible thing.
Other things are simply DS, [ZEN] stone, phone, and so on.

[Krystal]

Lol, I actually name my HDDs too. But the naming goes like this:

C: Control (System, as per usual)
D: Data (Important things)
E: Extra (Everything else)
F: Frosty. Frosty is an external. Frosty is white.

Nice to know I'm not the only one that does it

[borockman]

I called my D: My crap.

[Derreck Simons]

Oh, forgot about that.

When prompted, I named my external 1TB Hard-drive "Crap".

Edit: Apparently I'm quite unoriginal

Edit 2: Also if it counts, I renamed "Documents" to "Sterf" some time ago.

[borockman]

.

It is full of crap.

[Krystal]

I know logs of people who name stuff 'crap'. The closest I got to that was 'Random Crap'. Everything else is always 'Temp'.

But they are never ever ever temporary >_>!

[Mirby]

I always name my folders for maps and guides and stuff "Codes and Stuff [number]". I'm currently on Codes & Stuff V. Because it's the fifth such folder I've had. 1-4 were on my Compaq that crashed three times, so I remade it each time.

[RMZX Harmony]

Hmm... for a while my computer used to be called "Family Computer", now its "Crapsack"

The Laptop is "Son of Crapsack", just because of the stupid [parasitic bomb] keypad and the fact that it can't play HL2 very well despite being pretty damn new (2009 or something).

The Vista downstairs is "Unreasonable Child" Because of how vista has that stupid "User Account Control" always prompting for permission to do stuff. (I would undo it but my parents would probably get pissy, im going to do it today.)

TV is "Shiny Wafer"
Gamecube is simply "Cube I trip on"
Wii is "EXCEPTION (DSI) OCCURED!" Because that happens way too [tornado fang]ing much when I'm homebrewin'.

Also, when it comes to folders for my crap, I go with everything having to be "Unnamed Folder", I'm up to Unnamed Folder 3, because the first one I deleted because my parents complained, afterwards I made a new one which I called NEW Unnamed Folder, then I just said Screw it and made a 3rd one, which currently resides on my EXHDD (Which I call Red, because it is Red.) I have an alternate one on the "Unreasonable child", Which I call "Unnamed Folder Vista Edition". I also have Unnamed Music, where I put all of my "Obtained" Soundtracks. (With seperate folders for Anime and Video games, because thats all I ever "Obtain".

[Krystal]

...

I would /hate/ to browse your computer(s). Despite being messy, I do have some kind of an order and everything is properly tagged...

I have music folders for hmm, lesee. Ambient tracks, Anime, Doujin, my own crap, Classics, Contemporary, Dance, Game, Indie, Orchestral, Soundtrack (like, movies and stuffs), and Vocaloid.
On second thoughts I don't know why I have that first folder. And even though Vocaloid fits into Doujin (Which is really Indie), along with my own stuffs, and Game music belongs in Soundtrack and I don't listen to Techno anymore...

[RMZX Harmony]

All I ever tag is my music, so that way it has album art and is properly cleaned up for my Zune.

[Karai]

If we're talking about tagging music, my tags have to perfect. I add custom tags like 'original title' (written in moonspeak), 'exact release date', 'price', and so on. Foobar2000 is very helpful with mass tagging.
There's also a 'serial no.' tag (say, INTIR-015), and with the help of a little script I use it to display album's cover. So, instead of having a 'front.jpg' file in each and every folder (or trying to figure out how to keep multiple 'front.jpg's in the same 'random' folder, which is just impossible), I have a single folder named '_art' that keeps all the covers together, named like 'INTIR-015.jpg'.

[Krystal]

I tag all my Japanese songs in moonspeak anyway. Not that I can read it, but I can recognise them just fine if I like them enough to download them.
I'm so picky, even my composers and singers are all in their original moonspeak glory \o/ I really should get to learning the language but I really suck with languages.
Also my album covers are embedded into my mp3s Separate image files are just a pain. Mp3tag.

[Sky Child]

this is still a thread about named devices right

because i named my desktop pc areuredyforsumfutbol
and my laptop is peptochan because it's the pinkest [parasitic bomb] i've ever owned

[Krystal]

Yes, \o/ I'm just running my mouth 'cause no one else is weird enough to name things.

Your desktop plays football? I actually had to google Pepto 'cause we don't have that here...and...I...see...

I've never seen a pink laptop before o_o

[Tron]

I've never seen a pink laptop before o_o

I always wanted to have a pink PC... but now I have a black PC... ehhh...
























What?

[VixyNyan]

because i named my desktop pc areuredyforsumfutbol

Do you kick it?

[Krystal]

Speaking of laptops, my sister just came home with two of them. A black one and a white one. Apparently they were cheap.

</random>

@Kharaxel But where in the world would you find a pink chassis? >_o
...Nevermind I just googled and found that apparently there's a pink Macbook Pro and there's also a pink iCute. Whatever that is.

[Acid]

What?

Nothing. Do go on.

[Bolt Crank]

My car's nickname is the Thundertank.

Now I want to see your car.

I dont particularly name my stuff, though ive somewhat adopted my friends' habit of calling their MP3 player "Mippy" and my laptop "Lappy" (Or "Lappy-kun")

Another friend of mine named his car The Jalopy.

[Krystal]

Everyone calls their laptop 'Lappy' =w=a
Mippy is new though.

The Jalo- ...Poor car, no love at all =(

* Krystal just wants a car ;w;
