In 2018, there was a fire at an apartment complex in San Marcos. Five people died. Fire investigators say it was arson, which makes the deaths homicides.
Our local Fox outlet published a story yesterday: investigators are asking for help identifying some wireless networks that were in the area.

“Sir, can you explain to this court why you named your network ‘Cody Really Sucks’?” Say what you will about keeping the default name for your network, at least it probably isn’t embarrassing if you have to explain to the police.
Also, can we agree that the “FBI Surveillance Van” joke is old?
(This is actually a matter of some interest to me at the moment. Spectrum replaced our router on Tuesday. Which meant that all of our network names and configs are gone. At some point, I have to try to rebuild the configs, or at least change the network names. And the new Spectrum box has a very limited GUI: if you want to do anything like change a network name, you have to install Spectrum’s app. Not that I’m bitter or anything.)

I’m pretty lame.
I kind of like all of those. I would not call them “lame”.
For a while, I was naming my WiFi networks after WWII era encryption devices.
