When I installed this distro I somehow called the hostname the same as the user: zkbro@zkbro. Looks stupid, and I cringe every time I see it, almost every day. A quick search and turns out I can just change it by typing $ sudo hostnamectl set-hostname [new hostname]. So, after hours and hours of podering while walking, meditating, hopping on one leg... I came up with a new hostname:

wait for it...

laptop

Yeah that's about as creative as I'll get with this. But hey, zkbro@laptop makes sense. I'll funnel my creativity where it matters.

Of course, when I load up my old laptop, I will make sure it is called @oldlaptop.
