@tek Would guess probably it’s not that they didn’t want to talk to either of the others in your group, they probably saw you as the most approachable / least scary?

Starting a new Facebook account to use Marketplace with a variant on my name and not friending anyone from it has produced some wild friend recommendations, including neighbors from when I was a kid (across the country from where I currently live), my grandma’s backup account, and my 11th grade art teacher. Goes to show what tracking pixels and contact data graphing are really good for, I guess :/

The most interesting thing to me is how such tracking exposes the web of once-and-possibly-future connections between people which are already there but otherwise not necessarily visible.

“The systems programmer has written drivers for buggy devices whose firmware was implemented by a drunken child or a sober goldfish. The systems programmer has traced a network problem across eight machines, three time zones, and a brief diversion into Amish country, where the problem was transmitted in the front left hoof of a mule named Deliverance… A systems programmer will know what to do when society breaks down, because the systems programmer already lives in a world without law.”https://cloudisland.nz/@pjf/111100600201100924

Real-name policies are exclusionary of people who change their names personally but not professionally or use different last name variants based on context (what if you formally hyphenate and don’t do that day to day, or have two last names legally because you got one from each parent?!), and people who change countries and need to spell their last name using a different alphabet (Chinese or Japanese to English, English to Thai, whatever) so as to work with administrative systems that only accept the local character set. https://peoplemaking.games/@eniko/111217385971291927
