it has been 0 days since a journalist asked me if foone was my real name
-
I make weird things!
and I am one of the weird things I made.
-
@[email protected] i should change my name to "puppygirlhornypost2" in solidarity
-
anyway, both my mom and the government call me "foone", so I don't know how much "realer" I can make this name
-
@foone at least you're not a keyboard otherwise you might take yourself apart
-
@foone “It’s the real part. I have a complex name and the imaginary part is orthogonal to human language.”
-
@foone Foo-nuh? Or does it rhyme with spoon? Or something else?
-
@dysfun oh I wish I could take myself apart.
It's about every day that I wish my reverse engineering skills worked on my body and brain -
@ann3nova rhymes with spoon. It's the same as the second syllable of "typhoon".
-
@puppygirlhornypost2 do it. I think everyone should change their legal name to the name they use online.
fuck "real names", hacker aliases for everyone!
-
@foone I think many of us are thankful that you created you. Thank you. I appreciate your weird art, hacks, and posts every day.
-
@jtlg so, fun fact:
My full name is Foone B. Turing.
And my story for the "B" is that it stands for "Benoit B. Mandlebrot", and now re-read that sentence as many times as you want to go as deep as you want.So my name DOES have a complex part: it's the point called c, in Fc(z) = z² +
the definition of the mandlebrot set. -
@miah thanks!
-
@foone honestly? with stuff like kiwifarms out there? Yeah, I'm surprised prominent hackers use their real names.
-
@foone @puppygirlhornypost2 I am a cis man and it's entirely possible that my new handle may be Kathleen due to a hilarious bar order mixup at our last DEFCON group meetup
At least my initials don't change
-
@foone there are some firmware bugs i wouldn't mind fixing in mine but damnit the manufacturer didn't leave any documentation or even a jtag interface
-
-
@GabeMoralesVR that's the thing. if I was going by a silly fake name, they'd just dox me and post the "real one".
I've already lost so why try to fight?
-
@foone I've mostly dodged people questioning Osmose these days, but due to poor name requirements in software, at two different jobs, I've had to answer the question "is your last name _really_ 'Lastname'???"
-
-
@Osmose heh. now I kinda wish I had made my lastname "lastname"
