I'm impressed by that completely nonsensical device naming scheme.

I had to look it up because I thought that line might have been line noise.

I know some manufacturers and tech people have "issues" with naming,
but I thought it was mainly just DRAM chip manufacturers that used the
output from /dev/urandom to generate names.

Ass a few special characters, and it would make for an excellent password.
