I don't have enough machines to have a scheme lol

  • My gaming PC/game streaming server is "Orthanc" cause well... It's a computer tower.
  • My NAS/Plex/*arr server is "lil-nas-x", cause it's built out of a small form factor NAS
  • My personal devices are boringly named "ModelName-ABC", ABC replaced with my actual initials. Same for my wife's and kids' devices.
