I beg people to stop naming their tech using common words.
- KineticLensman 4y ago'Unicon' isn't a common word. It has a red-squiggly-line misspelling warning as I am typing this comment.
- djmips 4y agoMy bad. I autocorrected it in my mind.
- mananaysiempre 4y agoI, on the other hand, would like people to stop naming their albums and songs using my Google search terms, but I suspect we’re both going to be disappointed :)

- mhd 4y agoGiven sufficient languages and pronunciations, any word is indistinguishable from a common one. ;) Apart from what others already pointed out about this not being "Unico_r_n", what's the alternative? Acronyms? Names? Compound nouns? Any of that, plus a prefix? ("JSomeJavaSoftware", "iAmRidingOnApplesCoattails")
- djmips 4y agoI was wrong about the name... I'd like people to invent words or at least pick from ones not in everyday use.
- benj111 4y agoAh yes unicon. That ultra common word. So common, that gets autoincorrected to unicorn on my phone.
- djmips 4y agoMy bad. I autocorrected it in my mind. I deserve the lashings.
