Ask Lemmy

Sometimes I get kinda pedantic.

When i joined the fediverse I decided to make a break from my old usernames.

Remember that mobile game that was popular a while ago, Neko Atsume? It's that, but with Etna from Disgaea, because at the time I first made this username (years ago) Neko Atsume was taken and I was playing through Disgaea D2.

My display name is a short-version of my nickname which is a phonetic amalgamation of my first and last name.

Someone else took karl first and I want to know which one of you it was

Guess.

Just needed a name and combined a word with an animal

Display Name is because the Earth part of a Universe Simulator program run on a windows 11 machine and the Earth.exe process crashed, which is why we have assassination attempts, felon president, CEO getting shot, random coup attempt in South Korea. The Simulation program just spews random plotlines without the Earth.exe process to fine-tune it. Its basically telling AI to draw human hands, it keeps making no sense.

Star Wars Galaxies I was on a red wine kick at the time and had found Ecco Domani to be a good low priced red. I meeded a character name for SWG so I looked up "to seize" in Italian to make "seize tomorrow".

It's actually "squeeze tomorrow" or "tighten tomorrow" and should have been "cogliere il domani" which is cooler. But c'est la vie, or questa è la vita.

From a famous Australian poem called... "Said Hanrahan"

Surname plus 3 random numbers

Hank likes hominy.

Redditors are stupid in very specific ways and it annoys me.

Because I like these little guys: Grasshopper Mouse

A bunch of goofy bureaucracy name fuckups to my real name. It’s a long and boring story. It’s in no way related to being a group for tacos addicts.

Minecraft username I coined at the age of 8. The name speaks for itself.

"Behold, a token effort" sick line dropped by best boy linhardt in fire emblem warriors three hopes

My display name is probably from the most mysterious song on the internet

The pinnacle of Australian culture

I mashed the keyboard.

Every time I go to make a new username I just choose the first 2 words that come to mind

I enjoyed The Talos Principle. And the messages in that world seemed about as real as you guys. I mean that in an endearing way

Kona + Loki + accidentally changing an O to an A = Kolanaki

And then it turns out, it's also the name of a place in Greece.

I asked Dr GPT for a list of nouns and adjectives with a particular theme and picked some I liked and combined them. I do the same process for all my digital identities.

It's an auditory pareidolia I often have, everytime someone says "courant d'air" (which is draught in french), I hear my first name.

I like captain Picard.

Mine stands for "Divided by Zer0", based on the programming error "division by zero". Amusingly, people keep assuming it stands for "database zero" or "dragonball zero".

I'm a squirrel.

Take a guess 😅

I got onto Reddit back in the day for the electronic music production subreddits. There was an old Daft Punk interview during the big Ultra Music festival days where they made a joke that all EDM music was made by just one guy, Eric David Morris.

Mine is my password I use for all my accounts. It is very convenient for the frequent times I forget it. I can just come here and there it is.
